Gigabyte MW50-SV0 Intel C612 Chipset Server Board

Product Description

Intel Xeon E5-1600/2600 V3
- Processor Families
Based on the Haswell microarchitecture, these new Intel processor families bring a whole new set of performance boosting features. In addition to the usual boost in frequencies & core numbers, the Intel Xeon E5-1600/2600 V3 families are the first in the industry to support the brand new DDR4 memory technology.  On the previous server platforms from Intel, the maximum supported memory frequency has always been automatically downgraded by design when more DIMMs were being added on a server motherboard. As this trade-off between performance & capacity represents a dilemma to many memory-hungry server applications, GIGABYTE offers a unique solution. All our motherboards based on the LGA 2011-3 socket support by default a maximum frequency of 2133 MHz in any memory configuration. For applications requiring heavy computing acceleration, the MW50-SV0 can receive up to three computing cards (Intel Xeon Phi, NVIDIA Tesla) or regular GPUs working together thanks to the support of NVIDIA SLI & AMD Cross Fire X technologies. This motherboard uses a mezzanine card slot with four PCI-Express lanes with custom mounting sockets to receive one of our proprietary LAN controller cards. Positioned right between the board's socket & I/O, it can add more LAN ports to the standard interface & fit into a larger range of possible network scenarios.
