Component Legend Descriptions
1. CPU Socket 3647
This is the interface for the Central Processing Unit (CPU), and supports Intel
®
Xeon models compatible with the Intel
®
LGA3647 Socket, based on Intel
Xeon
®
W-3175X and Cascade Lake-SP architecture.
2. Intel
®
C622 PCH (Southbridge)
The Platform Controller Hub (PCH) handles the role that was previously held
by the South Bridge. The PCH allocates bandwidth to smaller PCIe slots, M.2,
USB, audio, etc. In simplified terms, the PCH works as a hub for peripherals
that are less bandwidth-intensive.
3. PWM Fan Headers
4-pin fan headers that control the fan speed based on a configurable curve or
static percentage. PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) works by pulsing power to
the fan at a constant rate and sending the RPM signal to the fan’s controller via
a Sense cable, rather than adjusting fan speed by increasing and decreasing
voltage. This method is preferable because it eliminates voltage-based fan stall
points. Please see Page 98 for more in-depth PWM breakdown and PWM
controls within BIOS/UEFI. These fans can be controlled via Smart Fan or
manually within the BIOS.
4. PWM/DC Fan Headers
These ports may be used with both PWM and DC fans, and may be controlled
via Smart Fan or manually within the BIOS.
5. DDR4 Memory Slots
The memory slots support up to six 288-pin DDR4 DIMMs in Hexa-Channel
mode. Hexa-Channel mode will be enabled only upon using six sticks of
supported memory, according to the installation guide above. 192GB of RAM is
supported in a 6x32GB configuration. At the time of this manual’s release, this
motherboard officially supports up to speeds. These speeds cannot
be guaranteed, however, because Intel
®
only certifies the speed of the memory
controller up to 2933MHz for Intel Xeon
®
W-3175-X and Cascade Lake-SP
processors.
6. 24-pin ATX power connector
The main power for the motherboard is located on the right side of the board
and parallel to the PCB; this is also described as a “ 90 degree / right-angle ”
connector (See Page 44 for more specifics to the connector itself, and associated
