1.3 Processor and Chipset Overview
The H12SSW-iNL/NTL motherboard offers maximum I/O expandability, energy efficiency, and
data reliability in a 7-nm process architecture. It is optimized for high-performance computing,
NVMe storage solutions, and ideal for High Density Data Center applications.
The H12SSW-iNL/NTL supports the new 7 nm microarchitecture process technology, which
significantly increases system performance for a multitude of server applications.
The AMD EPYC® 7002/7003 series supports the following features:
•
ACPI Power Management Logic Support Rev. 6.2
•
Adaptive Thermal Management/Monitoring
•
PCIe 4.0 w/transfer rates of up to 16 Gb/s
•
SATA 3.0 w/transfer rates of up to 6 Gb/s
•
System Management Bus (SMBus) Specification Version 2.0
1.4 Special Features
This section describes the health monitoring features of the H12SSW-iNL/NTL. The
motherboard has an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports system health
monitoring.
Recovery from AC Power Loss
The Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting that determines how the system will respond
when AC power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose for the system to
remain powered off (in which case you must press the power switch to turn it back on), or
for it to automatically return to the power-on state. See the Advanced BIOS Setup section
for this setting. The default setting is Last State.
1.5 System Health Monitoring
This section describes the health monitoring features of the H12SSW-iNL/NTL motherboard.
The motherboard has an onboard Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) chip that
supports system health monitoring. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given or
