I stumbled on this interesting LGA1200 motherboard: Dell Motherboard - Intel W580 - LGA1200 - DDR4 SDRAM NDYHG. Starting a thread to capture more information. What makes this board initially interesting is that it can be found from $45-80 in pristine condition (used). It’s mATX. It has many features you’d want for a router build, NAS build, and/or small compute server. ![image](https://forums.reeltalk.club/uploads/default/original/1X/4cfd7ec324d40529d2d6eabacb12c8485864ea8d.jpeg) It has the W580 chipset, which is the same server board chipset used in the [SuperMicro x12sca-5f](https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/x12sca-5f). This chipset supports 10th, 11th (with BIOS to be verified) and W-Xeon chips. It comes with 3 M2 slots alongside ~20 lanes of PCIe slot bandwidth. And it’s mATX. These boards are used in the [Dell Precision 3650 Workstations](https://www.delltechnologies.com/asset/en-us/products/workstations/technical-support/precision-3650-spec-sheet.pdf). They support standard 24-pin ATX PSUs with 8 pin extra CPU power. And have standard headers via the [Service Manual](https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/precision-3650-workstation/prec_3650t_sm/system-board-layout?guid=guid-f7b1eb84-0c9d-4d7a-a03d-963321ee94fa&lang=en-us): ![image](https://forums.reeltalk.club/uploads/default/original/1X/e5f8a6256f2f882fab7cf10fe7735767f125ffa9.jpeg) 1 E24 connector 2.

Does it throw any power-button related errors when used in a non-Dell chassis? I have a Dell Precision T3630 motherboard in a DIY system that requires me to hammer F1 every time I power it on. ---

After I got one of these to test, I could not even get it to POST with onboard video. I did not have a spare GPU to test with. So I returned it. I will revisit it one day… but darnit, looked like a special deal.
