Intel S2600GZ4 server motherboard dual LGA 2011 24 DDR3-1600 slots 768GB max

SKU CH-WXY9-Z72G4 MPN S2600GZ4

Dual-socket server motherboard with 24 DDR3-1600 slots supporting 768GB ECC memory, 10 SATA ports and four 1GbE LAN ports

  • Dual Xeon E5-2600 sockets for multi-threaded server workloads
  • 24 DDR3-1600 slots supporting up to 768GB quad-channel ECC memory
  • 10 SATA ports with software RAID 5 capability for storage redundancy
  • Four integrated 1GbE LAN ports providing quad 10/100/1000Mbps connectivity
  • Integrated graphics chipset enables direct display output without add-in card

Dual-socket Xeon E5 server board

The Intel S2600GZ4 is a dual LGA 2011 server motherboard built for two Intel Xeon E5-2600 series processors. It provides 24 DDR3-1600 slots in a quad-channel layout with ECC support, scaling to a maximum of 768 GB of memory. Integrated graphics and four 1 GbE LAN ports are included on the custom-form-factor PCB.

Suits memory-intensive dual-CPU builds

This board suits administrators building dual-processor servers that require very large DDR3 memory capacity and quad-channel bandwidth. Ten SATA ports with software RAID 5 support cover substantial internal storage needs. Builders who need more than ten native SATA connections or who require onboard 10 GbE networking should look at alternative platforms.

24 DDR3-1600 slots define maximum memory

The single specification that decides fitment is the 24 DDR3-1600 slots supporting up to 768 GB in quad-channel mode. This slot count and memory ceiling determine whether the board can meet the workload's RAM requirements before any other feature is considered.

Questions about this item

How do I install the CPUs into the dual LGA 2011 sockets without bending pins?

Align each Xeon processor with the socket triangle markers, lower it straight down without force, then close the load plate and secure the lever. The step often missed is tightening the heatsink mounting nuts in a cross pattern to ensure even pressure across both sockets.

Which components on the S2600GZ4 will need replacement after several years of continuous operation?

The CMOS battery on the board will eventually lose charge and should be swapped when BIOS settings stop retaining. Fan headers driving active CPU coolers may also wear out; monitor fan speeds via IPMI and replace noisy or stalled fans promptly.

What is the first limit reached when all 24 DDR3-1600 slots are populated and the system runs sustained heavy workloads?

Memory capacity tops out at 768 GB across the 24 slots in quad-channel mode. Beyond that, the 10 SATA ports and four 1 GbE LAN links become the next bottlenecks for storage and network throughput under constant load.
