1.2 Processor and Chipset Overview

Built upon the functionality and capability of the 4th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processor
and the PCH C741 chipset, the X13SEI-TF/-F motherboard provides system performance,
power efficiency, and feature sets to address the needs of next-generation computer users.
The X13SEI-TF/-F dramatically increases system performance for a multitude of server
applications and supports:
•
DDR5 288-pin memory support
•
Support for Management Engine (ME)
•
Support of SMBus speeds of up to 400KHz for BMC connectivity
•
Improved I/O capabilities to high-storage-capacity configurations
•
SPI Enhancements
•
Intel Node Manager 4.0 for advanced power monitoring, capping and management for BMC
enhancement (see note below)
•
BMC supports remote management, virtualization, and the security package for enterprise
platforms
Note: Node Manager support depends on the power supply used in your system.

1.3 Special Features

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.

1.4 System Health Monitoring

Onboard Voltage Monitors

An onboard voltage monitor will scan the voltages of the onboard chipset, memory, CPU,
and battery continuously. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given, or an error
message is sent to the screen. You can adjust the voltage thresholds to define the sensitivity
of the voltage monitor.
