HELP - motherboard for 1U chassis?

Hi all - trying to get two SuperMicro 1U cases (model SC811-P4 IDE) together and into the rack, and am having a LOT of trouble...

Tried two Gigabyte motherboards that I was told would work - backplane wrong, 1U heatsink supplied with cases would not fit. Tried two SuperMicro boards I was told would fit - heatsink won't fit.

I've tried the SuperMicro site, but it's not that helpful - there are SuperMicro boards available, but supplier can't get them for about 2 weeks... I want to be able to use a generic board (maybe Gigabyte), but can't find a compatibility chart anywhere!


Any help with this would be much appreciated HELP - motherboard for 1U chassis?
