(Available) For Sale: Intel DX79TO - https://www.intel.com/content/www/u...000021277/boards-and-kits/desktop-boards.html

Heatware: http://www.heatware.com/u/96001/to

Method of Payment: Paypal, Cash for Local Pickups (94538 or 95831)

Shipping: USPS Priority Mail for just the board (wrapped in anti-static bag), I/O Shield. I will pack in some SATA cables as well. Lower US 48 States only.

Item for Sale and Link to Item: https://ark.intel.com/products/55800/Intel-Desktop-Board-DX79TO

Price: $200 shipped. Price is firm as I am quite busy so to make it worthwhile to ship.

Description: I purchased this board as used (from another person) to build a software development build machine, but so far I haven't had the time and we are just using the cloud build capability, so it is unlikely we will ever get to use it. Works great. NOTE: The PCI-e clip for the first video card slot is out. I will include it if you want to put it back. This does not affect functionality as you need to fasten the card to the case anyway.

Method of Payment: Paypal, Cash for Local Pickups (94538 or 95831)

Item for Sale and Link to Item: http://www.asrock.com/mb/intel/X79 Extreme9/index.asp?cat=CPU

Price: $200 shipped each. Price is firm.

Description: Backup board and was not used much at all. The thing I love about these boards is that they come with the SoundBlaster card with the Sound Core3D chip, which is the same as the SoundBlaster Z. Card alone is worth $50. These board are great for gaming. I just have too many things around.

Well, it didn't occur to me selling them until this week when I realize how many x79 boards I have, so...

Ah darn, the Extreme 9's don't seem to have the NVMe BIOS update. The ASRock X77 and X79 boards are my favorites. I'm debating it now in my head. But I wish it had the NVMe boot update.

I have not kept up with the tech, what is NVMe BIOS update? Does it allow you to have a PCIe x4 card with NVMe drive to boot?

Yes! It makes it more likely to work, especially with Samsung NVMe SSDs. There's some work around if it doesn't have the NVMe BIOS update but for me it seemed a bit risky. NVMe works no problem if using it like any other drive for non-boot of course (at least with Windows 10). It seems hit or miss on the boards, there's a few random ones that did get the update, some are beta BIOS, some are regular BIOS.

Not saying it's a bad board though! I like all the Extreme series boards from Asrock around Z77/X79/Z87. The Extreme 9's are damn good!

Here's the Extreme11 having it, listed as beta BIOS P3.30P:
https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/X79 Extreme11/#BIOS


Here's the Extreme 3 listing it as beta BIOS:
https://www.asrock.com/MB/Intel/X79 Extreme3/index.asp#BIOS

Why the 3 gets it but not the 9? ASRock is odd at times. :eek:

Yes 1 is still left. The first PCI-2 locking mechanism is nearly broken, but the slot functions as normal and you just need to lock the video card to the case. It is a cheap and flimsy piece of plastic like most motherboards of the day.

$200 shipped via USPS Priority Medium Flat Rate box for the board, Game (Sound) Blaster card with Sound Core chip, I/O shield and if you need, a few SATA cables. I can ship in mid-October.

Not sure how reliable the following source is, but if it's 1660 V2 compatible, it should be all 16xx V2.
http://www.pc-specs.com/cpu/Intel/Xeon_E5_v2_Series/Xeon_E5-1680_v2/1982/Compatible_Motherboards

Hmm, I am not so sure. I did see in the past EVGA Dark x79 board that does not officially support a particular Xeon, if I remember correctly, it was either the E5-2680 v1 or 2670 v1, and it exhibits a strange behavior where the Turbo Boost does not work properly similar to this -
https://forums.servethehome.com/ind...1680-v2-force-maximum-turbo-multiplier.13034/

So, I will reply to your PM but I apologize, I must state that there is no return if it is not compatible with your CPU.

If you are going to offer additional items in the thread, please add pics, with your name and date in the pic per the rules of the forum.
Or, you may take it to PM and offer to the potential buyers.

Post a picture of your physical item (not a link that takes users off site, imbed the actual image or use the attachment feature) you are selling/trading, along with your techPowerUp! forums account name handwritten (Not typed or printed!) on a piece of paper in the background. This is to validate that there is an item being sold and that you are the seller. -Have your pictures ready before you post your thread! No pics, don't post or your thread will be deleted.
