Server motherboard for Xeon and Core workstations
This ATX board targets builders who need a single-socket LGA1200 platform with Intel W480 chipset features. It accepts 10th Generation Intel Core i9, i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors as well as Intel Xeon W-1200 chips up to 125W TDP. The layout suits compact workstations and entry-level servers that do not require dual-processor support.
Dual LAN and video outputs for remote management
Onboard networking includes one Intel PHY I219LM controller for AMT and vPro remote administration plus one Intel Ethernet i225LM port for standard connectivity. Integrated HDMI and DisplayPort interfaces provide console video without an add-in graphics card, useful for headless or rack deployments where a discrete GPU is not installed.
128GB DDR4-2933 unbuffered ECC capacity
Four UDIMM slots support up to 128GB of unbuffered ECC or non-ECC DDR4 memory at 2933MHz, setting the practical ceiling for memory-intensive workloads such as virtualization or data processing. Builders who require registered DIMMs, higher capacities or faster memory speeds must select a different platform.

Questions about this item
What memory maintenance will the four DDR4 UDIMM slots need over time?
The board supports up to 128 GB of DDR4‑2933 unbuffered ECC or non‑ECC UDIMMs across four slots; plan to replace modules only if a stick fails or capacity needs grow.
Which thermal limit appears first under sustained load?
The socket is rated for CPUs up to 125 W TDP, so the processor’s own thermal ceiling will be reached before the motherboard’s power delivery becomes a bottleneck.
How much heat and fan noise come from the dual Intel LAN controllers during all‑day operation?
The I219LM and I225LM PHYs draw only a few watts combined, adding negligible heat and requiring no extra airflow beyond standard chassis cooling.
