I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, as, while I have tried to search for any IPMI IP addresses, I can't find any. It does seem to be sending data but I can't get into the BIOS and see where it's sending data exactly It is, but it doesn't even seem to be POSTing at all

1.) is plausible, though I don't really think it's likely. As for 2.), the issue is that it probably isn't, as I don't get any beep codes with no RAM in the system at all, which probably points to it being stuck somewhere pretty early during POST. I'll try to see if IPMI works though, I should have tried that actually

I bought a SuperMicro X9DRD-iF motherboard about a month ago, and paired it with two E5-2670 v2s and four sticks of Micron MT36JSZF1G72PZ (8GB DDR3 2RX4 PC3-10600R). When I boot it up (as long as there's a CPU), there's a green light on the motherboard, my fans spin, and the PC is responsive to holding the power button to either turn it on or forcibly turn it off. I don't have any video output however, and the VGA output doesn't give any signal. The same thing happens without any RAM sticks, which should give an error code. I've tried to reseat some connectors and reinstalling the CPU (I'm not sure if it was the same one that was in that slot, I should probably try my other CPU), but it doesn't seem to do anything. Am I missing anything? I have the 24 pin ATX, 2x EPS power, power/reset/etc. front panel connectors, internal speaker and fan connectors plugged in. I don't have any (SATA) drives plugged in, and I've tried clearing the CMOS, to no avail. The BIOS as far as I'm aware is updated to a version that supports the E5 v2 series. Here's the manual, if it helps: https://www.supermicro.com/manuals/motherboard/C606_602/MNL-1488.pdf

You could probably tell Linux to set up grub on your SD card, but the issue is that I'm pretty sure you can't boot from SD cards on most PCs. Try it out

(I'm not using the normal template for this, as I'm just looking for a cheap device that could do what I want it to, and I'm not really looking to build a new build for this. Not really sure where else this could go) I'm looking for a thin client that would let me remotely work on my server, and also use its IPMI interface. Would just a Raspberry Pi work for this?

You should probably change the HDD+SSD combo for just one 2TB SSD, and you picked a SFX power supply for an ATX case. With an adapter you can still use it (and it's an absolutely excellent PSU), but you should probably just get a normal ATX power supply

The motherboard I bought is a server motherboard and doesn't have audio. Is there any card that lets me plug in a front panel audio connector?

Can I pay for the ticket in miles?

That's strange, and it probably isn't any BIOS setting as you already reset the CMOS battery. I'd try to use a different CPU as the other poster said

The Zenbook 14 would do fairly well, but it's pretty expensive at 900e. The Chromebook Flip C436 is pretty good as well for 800e (and it's a 2 in 1), but it probably won't have graphic tablet support. Laptops with 100% sRGB are pretty expensive sadly

Yeah, it's not really good, better to go for a 1050 ti

I picked that mainly for the strong single core, and to last for a little while more

That 3060 is very, very overpriced, and for games like Minecraft/Terraria you don't really need a strong GPU. This should do fairly well for the next couple years if you're just looking to do some lighter gaming and to browse the web really comfortably: PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processor ($389.99 @ Newegg) CPU Cooler: be quiet!

Np They're about the same. Here's how the top AMD and Intel processors score on Passmark's CPU test (for single core): Technically the M1 has the best performance, but you probably can't really use that The 5800X and 11900F are within about 2% of each other, single-core wise. Get the Corsair 275Q, it's well built and it looks incredible

This should do fairly well; it's about 2500 CHF. PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processor (€384.98 @ Amazon Deutschland) CPU Cooler: be quiet!

The Radeon W5700 is equivalent to the RTX 4000, but it is AMD, so if your workload requires an NVIDIA graphics card, feel free to switch it out for the RTX 4000 again. This isn't true with the 11th gen i9s, they're the same in single core

Maybe try booting a Linux distro? It usually shows if anything's wrong during the boot process

The 2080 is a bit better, and on that listing it's only 450e. There's also 2080 Tis which are a lot better than the 3060 for 520e But it's all out of stock so

See the description

I mean, even better But there's a 99% chance it's out of stock and merkandi just doesn't show it

Something like Secret Shopper but with tech forums? Make a thread on a couple of major tech forums (this one included) asking what's the best gaming PC you can build for x amount of money, build those PCs, and compare them. Could also compare their tech support advice
