Need X399 Board

[Avacado]

Before I have to turn to fleabay, does anyone have a used x399?

@tictoc I know you have this board.

Is it a good deal? I have offered a low ball 255$. I need 5 PCI-e slots for the 5 tesla GPU's that I will be putting under water.

Power and internet have been out for the last few days, so I am just catching up.  Did you already grab this board?

 

I like the board and haven't had any issues with it.  You might have to disable some onboard peripherals to get the board to recognize GPUs in all the slots.

 

I have an X399 Taichi, but it is missing the VRM heatsink.  I pulled the VRM heatsink to run a waterblock on it, and somehow managed to knock it off my workbench, and then step on it, which pinched the heatpipe.  I tried to get a replacement from ASRock, but no luck with that.

I did buy it, waiting on it to arrive from Ebay. Should have it in a few days. Would you be willing to part with the Taichi? I actually will end up needing 3 TR boards. 1 for the 5 Teslas on air (Have x399 Gigabyte w/ 2950x) That board and CPU will be going into my Caselabs TH10a with the 4 2080ti's when I finally get a new card, and then that will need a replacement. The server board will go with a 1900x and 5 additional Tesla's I am putting under water.

I would be willing to part with the Taichi.  Here's a pic of it with a Heatkiller universal block on the VRMs.

Looks good. I have my eye on a 1950x and 399 combo on ebay, if I don't get it, well talk!

Willing to deal @tictoc Can you post a pic of the board? I got a 3rd TR, but not the MOBO.

I'll shoot you some pics when I get home later today.

It's cool, I already found a board on fleabay. Don't trouble yourself!
