I bought the memory that was listed and I still cant get the Mobo to POST, BIOS, Beeps etc ,,,, absolutely nothing.

 

The MB was an OPEN BOX from new egg.  I just had them issue me RMA and replacement.

True. But if you buy an X11 board you don't really know if you are on r2.0 or not? You can ask but the company selling it will not always know.

 

That's true, if you get one from old stock you'll need to update the bios, it's the same for all Skylake boards, not just Supermicro X11, in time most should come with latest bios.

But I was unaware of that. Thanks. Was planning on buying an X11 board in the near future. But I am still considering other set-ups. But I will check with my supplier to know if they are delivering with the latest bios. If not I need to have it updated..
