This is a collection of components known to work with the Talos™ II-based solutions. It's maintained by both Raptor CS and community members.
Contents
Cases
These cases were successfully used by someone.
- SuperMicro SC732i-500B
- Not recommended for 12 core and higher CPUs
- SuperMicro SC732D4-903B
- Add-on sound card recommended
- Add-on USB 2.0 card or USB 3.0 hub recommended
- SuperMicro SC747TQ-R1400B
Known problematic cases
- Fractal Design Define XL R2
- Missing standoff holes for the top-left and top-middle positions.
- Some alternative standoff in at least the top-middle position may be required to prevent too much bending of the motherboard while inserting RAM.
- BeQuiet Dark Base 900 (Robbieab (talk))
- Claims to support E-ATX on the BeQuiet website
- Infographic showing the motherboard space to only be 322mm deep, which is 8.2mm short of the full-size E-ATX.
- Emailed them for clarification, but no response. Can't confirm either way.
Candidate Cases
These cases claim E-ATX support and are planned to be used by someone.
- Nanoxia Deep Silence2 (Sharkcz)
- Thermal Take Core W100/W200/WP100/WP200 (Robbieab (talk))
- Heavy, expensive, massive.
- Similar price point to the Supermicros with high power PSU + fans.
- Passed over in favour of the SuperMicro SC747TQ-R1400B
- Lian Li PC-V1000L (Robbieab (talk))
- Similar price point to the Supermicros with high power PSU.
- Very "Apple" brushed aluminium aesthetic.
- Couldn't confirm E-ATX was fullsize.
- Passed over in favour of the SuperMicro SC747TQ-R1400B
- Corsair 760T (mosst)
- Reasonably cheap.
- Unusually tasteful aesthetics for a consumer/gaming case. Looks like something Aperture Science would come up with.
- Yet to confirm if E-ATX is fullsize.
- Bitfenix Aurora (MarcusC)
- Seems to be missing some standoff holes, modification may be required
Power Supplies
When planning to run with both CPU sockets populated keep in mind that the power-supply should support also 2 8-pin EPS connectors.
- Seasonic PRIME 1300W
Memory
The criteria are basically "is it ECC, is it registered, is it NOT LRDIMM"
From the manual:
| Total Slots | 16 (4 channels per CPU) |
| Capacity | 2TB maximum |
| Memory Type | DDR4 1600/1866/2133/2400/2666 |
| Memory Features | ECC |
| Module Sizes | 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, 128GB (RDIMM) |

Known Incompatible Memory
NOTE: Memory may be removed from this table after firmware support has been added, or there may be a fundamental hardware incompatibility. If you have incompatible memory listed in the table below, you may want to bookmark and check this page from time to time to see if a firmware update has resolved the issue.
| Module | Test Conditions | ||||||||

SAS/SATA Storage Drives
Connected via optional on-board PM8068 controller, or via PCIe controller. NVMe cards are also supported.
Boards with onboard SAS have 1x MiniSAS (or something like that? confirm!) port, and 4x standard SATA-III ports.
PCIe Devices
Storage Controllers
- LSI 9300 SAS HBAs
- PM8068-based SAS HBAs
NVMe Storage Drives
- Samsung 960 EVO / PRO (with M.2 to PCIe adapter)
Graphics Cards
- AMD Radeon HD 5850 - Must disable onboard VGA with firmware hack first
- Radeon R9 290X
- AMD Radeon Pro WX7100 - Available pre-installed on Talos II workstation, server, and desktop configurations.
- AMD Radeon Pro WX4100 - May need at least linux 4.16 in order to get Xorg to work.
No display? Check out the GPU Troubleshooting page.
Sound Cards
