Great for virtualization server on a budget
I paired it with a Intel Xeon e5-2640, which is not on the supported cpu list but works fine.
My use case was for a virtualization server and this motherboard supports both VT-x and VT-d. Pretty much everything is broken into its own IOMMU group which is great for passthrough to virtual machines.
It only works with unbuffered memory (ECC and non-ECC), so Registered ECC doesn't work. It's a shame as Registered ECC memory is considerately cheaper, but this info is available in the manual for the motherboard.
