Chapter 1: Overview Processor and Chipset Overview Built upon the functionality and capability of the Intel E5-2600v3 Series processors (Socket R3) and the Intel C612 PCH, the X10DRG-H(T) motherboard provides the best balanced solution for high-performance, high-density 6GPU 1U/2U server platforms.
X10DRG-H/X10DRG-HT 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 X10DRG-H(T) motherboard accommodates SMCI-proprietary main power (JPW1), a 9-pin power (JPW2), and five 8-pin 12V power connections (JPW3/JPW4/ JPW5/JPW6/JPW7). The 9-pin power connection header located at JPW2 is used to supply power to the motherboard, and the 8-pin power connections located at JPW3-JPW7 are used for HDD backplane and GPU add-on cards.
Intel Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available ® when the Supermicro Power Manager [SPM] is Installed) The Intel Intelligent Power Node Manager 3.0 (IPNM) provides your system with ® real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy efficiency.
The following statements are industry-standard warnings, provided to warn the user of situations which have the potential for bodily injury. Should you have questions or experience difficulty, contact Supermicro's Technical Support department for assis- tance. Only certified technicians should attempt to install or configure components.
