<p>As for the PSU: Personally, i favor the Seasonic Prime Titanium
1000w.</p>
<p>I can confirm that the Radeon RX 560 and 580 work also.</p>
<p>Also the Nvidia 710, its probably the choice if low power is your
aim(i believe like 19w), and some other nvidia quadcore, but i
would still recommend to stay away from nvidia (they are not
particular open source friendly, more like the opposite)</p>

<div dir="ltr">Here "Crossfire XDMA" is listed as
needing testing. If nobody has been able to test
this, and you (or someone else) has the opportunity
this might be an interesting thing to test.</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">After learning that this board can take
a more modern CPU (family 15h) I'm now considering
it more strongly for a future computer. My K10 box
is *currently* mitigated against Spectre V2 (IBP
disabled under CentOS via a chicken bit) but I don't
think it's wise to expect further mitigations to be
forthcoming from AMD should more bugs rear their
ugly head. Moving up to a family 15h CPU means
getting updated Spectre V2-mitigating microcode and
a much more realistic expectation of support in the
immediate future. I'll probably even move up to
piledriver (like the G505s I'm currently working
on), since a microcode patch will also fix the NMI
issue (and I'll be applying one to the stock
microcode anyway).</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">I'd be really interested to learn if
Crossfire and other features of modern cards work on
these older boards under coreboot, since they may
come in REALLY handy when running any machine
learning loads on these boards.</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">On another note, does anyone have a
favorite PSU for these boards? Preferably something
that will last a bit longer than crappy consumer
gear? This thing already requires two 8-pin
connectors for a dual CPU setup, and graphics cards
demand them now too.</div>

much for your valuable feedback! When I've<br>
been thinking of getting KGPE-D16 my main concern was that
some high<br>
end GPUs wouldn't work for some reason and it was
difficult to find<br>
any info... Luckily your RX580 doesn't have a Security
Processor<br>
inside it ! Did you know AMD started putting this
"security processor"<br>
crap into their GPUs also, starting with Vega? Hopefully
RX line would<br>
be safe for a while, maybe I'd get RX680 when it comes out
if it will<br>
not be tainted by this "security" :P Wish you to get a
second nice<br>
