  • description: In today's video I will take you through the specs and features of this awesome powerhouse of a motherboard and discuss why it's perhaps not the right choice for a new build in 2025 after all. I dive into the pros and cons of this workstation-class setup, including: - The incredible specs and expansion capabilities - Unexpected challenges getting Proxmox to boot - Persistent PCIe errors that gave me pause - Power consumption concerns (200W+ at idle!) - How it compares to newer Zen 5 chips like the 9950X Watch as I share my honest experience with this high-end but aging platform, discussing whether it still makes sense for homelab enthusiasts when newer, more efficient alternatives exist. Is this motherboard a PCIe lane junkie's dream come true, or should you save your money for something else?
