Which motherboard to choose for a desktop server for a long time?

Advise mother. The task is to assemble a desktop, it is also a personal server that will work for the next ten years at least (firstly, this means reliability, secondly, upgradeability, the less built-in and the more expansion slots - the better, the more manual settings - the better , but reliability (durability) comes first), the form factor is a standard ATX midi (or more) tower.
There used to be good reviews in magazines, now I don’t even know where to look, and I myself have lagged behind the iron life, so I’m just asking here.

For a home server, I recommend paying attention to SuperMicro(X10SLL-F (RTL) LGA1150) + Xeon(E3 ***) motherboards. From the advantages of IPMI, KVM-over-LAN. 3 years since I completely switched to SuperMicro, while I'm happy as an elephant.

while we have components on the shelves in the world, they are already becoming obsolete, and then we buy them, we come home and already 2 generations have changed) Take what you have enough money for, you can buy server hardware) The most important thing is more memory slots, as you can see with new chips for intel 99 DDR4 is coming

In the Internet. The same reviews.
For example, if in Russian, then
ixbt.com
overclockers.ru
thg.ru
, etc., including forums there.
Yes, and just in Google you can write <model name> review / review
Why do you need 10 years? It's a lot. It is much more profitable and easier to upgrade every few (2-5) years, partially or completely, depending on the situation.
