Before You Begin…
The EVGA SR-3 DARK merges two extreme performance lines of EVGA
motherboards to bring balance with the force of exceptional performance and
engineering to the Intel
®
C622 chipset. Much like its predecessors, the SR-3
DARK is designed for ultra-enthusiasts looking to pull every last ounce of
performance from the Intel XEON
®
W-3175X CPU. The SR-3 DARK features
a 24 Phase VRM design, along with four right-angle 8pin High Current
connectors to provide maximum power for overclocking. Six SMT DIMMs
enable high-frequency and low latency RAM overclocking. The 16-layer PCB is
studded with multiple sensors to track a variety of temperatures and voltages
across the board, which can be displayed on the dual-LED displays.
For its other features, the SR-3 DARK contains Creative Audio, one Intel
®
Gigabit NICs, two Intel
®
10GbE NICs, onboard power/reset/CMOS buttons,
PCIe disable switches, triple BIOS support, 8 smart fan headers, and multiple
storage and I/O options
. If you’ve been holding out for a serious motherboard
to upgrade, the time is at hand.
Lastly, a motherboard is only as good as its BIOS, and the EVGA SR-3 DARK
feature
s EVGA’s newest UEFI/BIOS GUI with a focus on overclocking and
functionality in a lean, straightforward package.
You won’t need to be an expert
to configure your motherboard,
but if you are, you’ll find features unavailable
anywhere else.
