Ryzen IPMI/AMT?

I have a home server, currently running on an i5-4460. I'm sick of not having IPMI or AMT, and having to crawl into a cupboard any time I want to do anything to it or any time it's crashed, to the point that I'm currently debating a £700 shopping basket of Xeon E3 1245v5 and C236 motherboard, 16GB ECC DDR4, etc.

I'd rather go for a Ryzen if I'm honest, this thing runs a few VMs and is a Plex server that makes extensive use of transcoding, so 8 cores seems ideal.

But, while Ryzen does support ECC, it seems there is no IPMI/KVM over IP solution? Am I blind or does this just not exist?

I don't want to have to spend hundreds on an IP KVM switch, if that's the case I may as well just go Xeon E5.
 
It's not a server chip so no, it doesn't support that. Naples will though.
 
Strictly speaking, I can do this on an i5/i7 with vPro, I just need a Q series motherboard, so not really sure it should be a server only thing.
