Super X12DPG-U6 User's Manual
1.2 Processor and Chipset Support
Built upon the functionality and capability of the 3rd Gen. Intel Xeon Scalable Processors
(Socket P+/FCLGA4189-4 socket) and the Intel PCH C621A chipset, the X12DPG-U6
motherboard increases energy efficiency, and system performance for a multitude of
applications such as high performance computing, artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning
(DL), big data, and enterprise applications.
Features Supported by the Intel Xeon
•
Performance improvements with higher core counts, up to 3 UPIs/socket at 11.2 GT/s
•
Vector Neural Network Instructions (VNNI) support to accelerate training
•
New hardware-enhanced security features help protect platform & data without compro-
mising performance
•
High PCIe performance (PCIe 4.0) with double the bandwidth of PCIe 3.0
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, and CPU
continuously. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given, or an error message is
sent to the screen.
Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control
The system health monitor embedded in the BMC chip can check the RPM status of the
cooling fans. The CPU and chassis fans are controlled via BMC.
