Can anyone help me as I can't decide what motherboard out of the Asus P10S-I or the ASRock C236 WSI is better for a Server.
Planning to use a Xeon E3-1240 v5 (or Xeon E3-1245 v5 for the ASrock as it has no on board graphics chip set) running Windows Server 2016 Essentials. Will be going in a 250mm deep 1U Server chassis.
So far I have gathered;
The Asus has low level management support through a optional module, mini-SAS support, but has very basic graphics chipset, no on-board audio, and no 20 pin USB-3 header.
The ASRock on the other hand has on-board audio and a USB 3.0 header, but has no built in graphics chipst.
What one is best for my requirements and why? Long term reliability is also very import!
