Hello,
I want to build a lightweight server and install centos. Does anyone have a recommendation for a suitable motherboard?
At home I have two of these atom C2750 boards each with 32GB of ECC ram . They are extremely good, powerful and very cheap boards. They use very little power so you don't need fans which is nice. And they have ipmi controllers.
The processors are 8 core and will easily outstrip a 5i or 7i.
