Can someone educate me as to what makes a motherboard "supported" or not?

I don't know squat about mining generally, but in building basic linux servers over the years I've never really been concerned with motherboard support.

I ask because I was considering playing around with nvOC on an old HP linux server with a single 1050ti I had laying around.  Wanted to get familiar with nvOC working with nvidia cards before I buy and build out a real rig.

However, I saw something about supported motherboards and figured I would ask before I wasted my time.

Thanks!

Hi,

Generally almost all motherboards are supported, but I think you have two options:
1) You are writing here your HP linux server's motherboard model and asking if anybody running nvOC on it?
2) You are downloading nvOC image file, trying to build a boot USB flash drive and checking if it is working or no?
One more suggestion, please pay attention to the fact that you have only one card. There is a recommendation by fullzero:
