If the show does start...

I don't need USB3* right now. Nor U.2, or M.2 if they're not up. I would like to use the i3's HD530 to drive one of adafruit.com's 800x480 touch screen's. An X server in portrait mode on a display that has only 1 mode and might not auto-negotiate well: so decent video support would be nice. But I can live without that as long as I can install and use a serial console, even if it takes some additional simple video card.

I don't need audio (it's home heavy-NAS server), nor Thunderbolt at the moment. I see both network adapters, I219-LM and I handful of entries for I210, hoping one is -AT. I see my LSI SAS2308, but not the Marvell 88SE9215, but there are other options, especially if all 6 on-board SATA ports work.

Any idea about the Mellanox ConnectX-2  I see ConnectX.  Not a show stopper.

so - does anyone know if OI boots on an ASUS Z170? I found a Nov 2015 article about UFEI on an ASUS Z170-A, it looks as though CSM was enabled and legacy options were the default. Can anyone confirm with recent BIOS?
