It seems good based on the price of just the CPU. If it’s good, what kind of server case would it need?

What will be your usecase for this?
Probably something that could be handled with a rpi
Looks like a reasonable deal. The mobo has IPMI, which if you’ve never used it, it’s a dream for server management. It’s no iDRAC or iLO, but it should work well enough for hands-off management.
iDRAC and iLO are brand names for IPMI
This answer would be incomplete without mentioning that Dell iDRAC and HPE iLO have a lot of proprietary functionality beyond what the IPMI standard requires. For example, iDRAC and iLO support rich KVM-like screen sharing, plus the ability to mount ISOs and other media onto the server. Indeed, so much more functionality exists in these implementations that a license key must be purchased to enable the most fancy features.
I will note that SuperMicro does simply call their offering as “SuperMicro IPMI” despite having a few of these proprietary features. But by and large, basic IPMI is an interoperability specification, with each implementation having their own unique strengths.
Not really. Ipmi s a protocol. Ilo uses redfish iirc.
They’re all bmc communication methods tho.
