ITX board that supports Ivy Bridge or Haswell Xeons?

[Radium_Angel]

And is it ITX, or Mini-ITX, or are those terms interchangeable?

Yes I know about the Chinese salvage boards, I'd like not to go that route if possible (though given the age of the Ivy Bridge or Haswell Xeons, I'm guessing I'd be looking at a used board any way)

 

Trying not to spend a fortune, hence the reason for going with older Xeons.

Asrock made one, the X99E-ITX: https://www.amazon.com/ASRock-X99E-ITX-LGA2011-v3-Mini-ITX-Motherboard/dp/B00W5JSF7O

Socket LGA 2011-3, supports Haswell Core i7s and Xeons.

 

Best option is probably looking for on on Ebay.

mITX and mini-ITX are the more correct terms, but there arent other form factor that goes with ITX in part of their name so it's also interchangeable I think

 

It's before Intel became a dick head by locking low core count Xeons away from general consumer boards, practically any H77/Z77/B85 etc chipset ITX boards would do.

 

That said, ITX boards that long ago are rare enough to either cost way too much or have doubtful origins. 6th/7th gen will imo be the better way to go, basic i5s can be had for little money and ITX became more common starting from that time.

I think Xeon E3s are the CPUs he's describing

Thank you, do you have any suggestions?

CPU? Quick look in ebay shows a bunch of listings for 6th gen i5s at $30~40 each, you might be able to find even better deals if you look closely. Even i7s (locked mind you) are about $60~70 each.

 

Mobo: If H110s are too basic, get B150 and B250 chipset ones. Different models of ITX boards don't differ too much beyond the most barebones of models (which is the H110 chipset), it's about checking the conditions of each listing and not worry about the particular model too much.
