I've got a SuperMicro 440GX board in a server here, I think it's a S2DGU.
(It's a dual Xeon board with an onboard 7890)

It seems to work fine, although it only has one processor on board (400MHz
Xeon, 512K cache), so I can't say anything about its SMP performance or
behavior.  It has 512MB of RAM, FWIW.
