Supermicro H13SSL-N For AMD EPYC 9005 "Turin" 1P Servers
While it's difficult still finding Intel Xeon 6 'Granite Rapids' motherboards/servers widely available at Internet retailers/distributors, when it comes to the AMD EPYC 9005 'Turin' processors that launched just last month, there is better availability thanks in large part to leveraging the existing SP5 socket.
For those wanting to assemble a single socket AMD EPYC 9005 series server, one of the readily available options in the retail channel is the Supermicro H13SSL-N motherboard. The motherboard I ended up basing this secondary EPYC Turin 1P server on was the Supermicro H13SSL-N that I bought retail and can be found at a number of Internet shops. Going into this build I set out to find an EPYC 9005 compatible motherboard with additional requirements of supporting up to the full 12 memory channel capability of the platform (with some of the lower-end EPYC 9004/9005 motherboards having support for just eight memory DIMMs), handling up to at least 400 Watt CPUs, and given the difficult ongoing state of the web ad industry (and unfortunately rampant ad blocker usage, etc, all combining for making operations difficult -- if you enjoy all my Linux hardware testing/benchmarking, a good reminder to join Phoronix Premium) to be as economical as possible.
