EPC612D4I features Intel® Xeon® E5 v3 series with single socket. It supports four DDR4 DIMM slots, four SATA3 ports, and one PCIe3.0x16, fantastic memory frequency and transfer speed for storage. Topped off with two Intel® i210 ports and one dedicated IPMI LAN, this mini-ITX board is well-design with high performance features. It can meet diverse appliances from mini servers for personal users to blade type servers for parallel computing or multiple GPU computing, overall a comprehensive solution for the market.

It looks great design wise, but the colors are boring. I dont know why server type motherboards always look like boring. Server type of motherboards are Buick of Cars, except even Buick is re-branding their look now.

Most things that are job related look boring and industrial
 
It's going to be tucked away in a rack somewhere, who cares how it looks.

I do wish they had done this with the consumer X99 board though, SODIMM is much more limited in availability but fitting 4 slots in would be worth it IMO.

I agree. I mean X99 ITX is a niche in itself, why not go all the way through?
 
Let's hope it's a sign of things to come, with higher density SODIMM configurations on ITX mobos

It looks like they even managed to cram 6 fan headers on it somehow
 
The full atx mobo currently goes for $270 on newegg - this is probably in that same tier, +/- maybe $50

ASRock EPC612D8 SSI ATX Server Motherboard Socket LGA 2011 R3 - $269.99
 
I would love to see someone drop the new 22 core in there, max out the RAM to 64GB, Drop it in an NCase with a 1080 and have essentially an end-all-be-all LAN dominator.

Believe me I love the idea of having a 22 core cpu and 64gb of ram in my Ncase but what's the point. Only servers and a few select professions that require compute intensive workstations would make use of the chip. All that ram and cores would be wasted on a gamer.

Also since 16gb ddr4 dimms are a thing why not make it 128gb of ram since we're dreaming of crazy stuff!

You can already do this with the X99 ASRock board. Why bother with a server board that is missing all that extra IO? You can even add an NVMe drive to the X99 one too. I'm personally running a very similar setup with just a lower core count CPU. 64GB RAM is possible on the X99 board so long as you're using a Xeon CPU.
