My pc has been rebuilt! My housemate had a spare motherboard and, well, it's definitely a major upgrade. He was sorry he could give me "only" 32gb of ram, though. Oh no, how will I survive :blobcatwinktongue: (we're still doing the benchmarking)

@tsunderdog Oh no, only 32? How terrible :P (I suppose nowadays that is fairly low considering 128GB is considered maxed out but still, I've got 12 on my current desktop and 32 for my next system, and that's more than sufficient for it)

@Kilroy considering this motherboard originally ran on a server, giving it to me is the equivalent of sending the dog upstate to retire and run around in a big flower field

@tsunderdog Oh wow yeah a server board is loads improved over standard boards for most users

@Kilroy only real issue seems to be the fan sensors aren't working but given the specs of this thing, it's a pretty minor isue
