"Miller, Daniel J."
Support from the manufacturer for the Arima line of motherboards can be found here:
One word of caution with Arima: While their motherboards seem to be very stable (not much problems reported) some of them like the HDAMB are not true NUMA: they have the memory connected only to a single CPU. If you want a well scaling Opteron system I would avoid such designs. Other boards from Arima may be ok in this regard. This can be normally easily checked on board pictures - the traces from the DIMM slots to the CPUs are visible. They should lead to both CPU sockets. -Andi
