- In this video, we'll review the Huananzhi X99 motherboard with Xeon CPU
www.aliexpress...
This motherboard comes with E5 2680 v4 and does have 2 PCIe slots. Let's see if we can game on it or turn it into a server.
We'll start with an unboxing to show you what's included in the package, followed by a detailed overview of the motherboard's layout and components.

Thanks for the video. The aliexpress link does not workung. could you explain a little bit more in detail, how the bios dump thing is working? Maybe in case of similar china mobo's? Thanks
Updated the link. Basically I use flahrom to dump the internal BIOS, it might work in most cases, but might not work on some. When it doesn't work, you need SOIC8 clips and dumping it via USB. After dumping you just use the github repo I use in the video to clean out / shrink the ME, then you flash back the modified BIOS image, either using flashrom directly again, or if flashrom directly doesn't work, you'll again write it back using SOIC8 clips. Hope it helps
You can buy just the Huananzhi motherboard for a mere $65.
2011 / 2011-V3 both have 40 Gen3 lanes though there should be more than enough as there is only 1x x16 slot
so 3x nvme m.2 (@x4) x3 = 12x Pci e
1x x4 + 1x x16 slots ------- = 20x pci-e
4 sata ? = maybe 2x to 4x pci-e ??
m.2 wifi/bt slot 1x + usb ? (and what ever lanes usb 3 and usb 2.0 is using = 1x (x2) rear and fp 3.0 (x2)
I have my huananzhi x79 for 2 years long at it work fine
same here i'm running huananzhi x79 zd3 for 2 years still working fine
I'm running a Kllisre x79 since Oct 2021 w/e5-2650 v2
So you just need to remove the intel ME and then you can flash a compatible bios on it, that's right ?
I also have this question
what's up with your game capture? Low bitrate? Looks awful. With 35TB of SSDs there, there's no excuse for low bitrate.
thats the chipset dumdum.... or PCH on Intel... @19:44
thanks for the review, now i can decide what i want to buy.
if you use the x4 pcie you might loos an nvmem.2 slot ?
Great review this CPU support virtualization?
The only issue I have with these motherboards is how long are they going to last and in an event of failure is there any support available or not.
You are right, that's why these boards are so cheap, but from what I've seen so far, they seem to be doing pretty OK. Support-wise though, you probably won't get much, but as for longevity, they should last a couple of years.
They are giving 3y warranty
Remember to do regular back ups of data so you don't lose what's important. Can always build another budget Xeon rig.. Data can't be replaced
Thanks for sharing 😀.
But, Xeon TDP was so fat 🤪
1Gb lan goood enough for me
You showed how to run some debian/ubuntu OS on system but... How about booting it headless? Does this MoBo support it? Most of the X99 boards on chinese market doesn't allow it so they can't be used as a real server.
I have the same setup a e5 2680 v4 paired with rx 590gme and its rocking bro totally one with tight budget for gaming ther some x99 mobo that comes with 8 slot ddr4 and ARGB header thou u cant overclock the apu but u can get a mod mobo for it to unlock boost and not recommend it might destroy ur apu
Wish that I would’ve waited for this feature. I purchased the last board, and the x16 slot is too close to the CPU.
The nice things about these boards is the onboard M.2 support but the old chipset/CPU is starting to grow long in the tooth especially with no VGA/BMC. And I say that as someone who has V2-V5 xeons running in my homelab (that I'm in the process of replacing). The good thing is that they are cheap which for some use cases can trump more modern features assuming power usage/costs isn't too high.
The product page says xeon v4, then you stated it was v3 Xeon?
@20:00 and this one is the VRMs for CPU
Bro where you get intel hsf with screw?
it's kinda wrong for them to be bundling 2000 series Xeons in with a single-cpu board with dual channel memory slots because those chips are meant to be for dual-cpu boards with quad channel memory... but what do I know? The free market knows best... ;-p
True the Haswell and Broadwell e5 xeons can work with dual cpu config and quad channel RAM. Huananzhi likely cost cutting. An everyday user won't know the difference between dual and quad channel performance. Myself I used ECC ram for my xeon in quad channel for x79 build. Single cpu Kllisre mobo. Not all use case need the horsepower of dual cpu. Some config can be power hungry
A good use could be as a ssh server
Do you mean a media / file share host...? Because SSH servers are incredibly lightweight packages you run on nearly any machine
@@boneappletee6416i think he means maybe headless (without the gpu). That would cut the power draw a little too !
cool, but i have to ask, what did u do while installing windows? is there something i have to buy to run windows, and how can i connect wifi without ethernet
If you don't use a network cable then you need a wifi add in PCIe card
If you don’t mind me asking, what is the actual chipset? Chinese motherboards are famous for using a wide range of desktop chips for these X-99 boards.
From my experience, they use literally any chipset they can find, so two boards with one branding can have two different desktop chipsets. It is always a gamble.
Edit: After searching through some forums, it seems that most common chipsets for this exact board are Q87 and Z87
Even if you buy the same model of Chinese x99 at the same time you can get a different chipset.
