No, but I've used a few of the RAVE ones; same board, PC parts, Rave sticker.
It's basically a 10s equivalent, but in an ATX formfactor.  Not bad at all.  
Zero problems, and lots of flexibility (especially for the price).  We've also
used the MP one (up to 4 CPUs, meant to be like an e450) with good results, but
they require some serious fans.  While the AXi board doesn't get as hot as some
PC systems I've used, I'd still invest in a good case with good cooling.
