Thanks, that's more along the lines of what I am looking for. :-)

Thanks, that looks a little better than the other two I found. Do you know if it supports ECC memory? The spec doesn't seem to mention it.

I have a SolidRun Honeycomb, and I'm pretty happy with it. Still max RAM is 64G, but it is a nice board.

Hi,

Most unfortunately, my MP30-AR1 board seems to have expired today. It gets stuck in an infinite boot loop:

Boot from SPI-NOR
American Megatrends
Boot firmware (Project MP30-AR1, BIOS Ver F01; built at 15:11:23 on Sep  5 2016)
Slimpro FW Ver: 2.4
iPP Ver: 01.15.01.00
Checkpoint 2D
Checkpoint 2D
Checkpoint 2D
Checkpoint 2D

So I'm looking for a replacement. Unfortunately, everything I can get in *TX form factor seems to be nowhere nearly as good, despite 6-7 years of advancement, and I can't seem to find a replacement MP30-AR1 board listed anywhere.

I am aware of these:
Pros:
- Can just buy one
Cons:
- Poor performance despite lots of cores, especially single-thread performance compared to the old MP30-AR1
- Only half the RAM capacity at 64GB

Pros:
- Might have half decent single thread performance matching or exceeding the old MP30-AR1
Cons:
- Questionable availability, unknown pricing
- Only half the RAM capacity at 64GB

Is there another offering that I'm missing? I know Gigabyte do a server system, but I need something reasonably quiet and compact rather than something rack mounted making data centre grade noise.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Gordan
