Supermicro X10DRL-CT Server Dual Socket Motherboard

The Supermicro MBD-X10DRL-CT is a dual‑socket server motherboard designed to host two Intel Xeon E5‑2600 v3/v4 processors (Socket LGA 2011‑3, Socket R3). Each CPU supports up to 145W TDP and is connected via a QPI link rated up to 9.6 GT/s, delivering solid multi‑processor performance for demanding workloads. The board is built around the Intel C612 PCH, aligning enterprise‑class I/O and reliability with the dual‑CPU platform. Networking includes two 10 GbE RJ45 ports for high‑speed data and management traffic, while cooling is flexibly handled by eight 4‑pin fan headers with tachometer monitoring and PWM control to support dense, sustained operation. This model is well suited to virtualization, databases, and compute‑intensive applications that benefit from dual CPUs and fast interconnects, offering a compact yet capable platform for 2‑socket server deployments.
