Processor and Chipset Overview Built upon the functionality and capability of the Intel E5-2600V3 Series Proces- sors (Socket R3) and the Intel C612 PCH, the X10DRL-i motherboard provides the best balanced solution of performance, power efficiency, and features to address the diverse needs of next-generation computer users.
X10DRL-i Motherboard User’s Manual 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.
It is even more important for processors that have high CPU clock rates. The X10DRL-i motherboard accommodates 24-pin ATX power supplies. Although most power supplies generally meet the specifications required by the CPU, some are inadequate. In addition, two 12V 8-pin power connections are also required to ensure adequate power supply to the system.
X10DRL-i Motherboard User’s Manual Advanced Power Management The following new advanced power management features are supported by this motherboard: Intel Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available ® when "Supermicro Power Management (SPM)" is Installed) The Intel Intelligent Power Node Manager 3.0 (IPNM) provides your system with ®...
