Dual Xeon server board with DDR3 and M.2 NVME
The WMtec X99-8M-T is a micro-ATX server motherboard built for dual Intel Xeon processors using the LGA 2011-3 socket. It accepts a specific list of E5 v3 CPUs including the 2629V3, 2649V3, 2669V3, 2673V3, 2676V3, 2678V3 and 2696V3 models. The board runs on an H81 or B85 chipset shipped at random and uses an eight-layer PCB with six-phase power delivery.
Upgrade from single-socket DDR3 systems without
This board replaces older single-processor platforms by adding a second CPU socket and an M.2 NVME interface alongside four SATA 3.0 ports. The jump is worth it when a workload needs more cores and low-latency local storage but must stay on DDR3 memory. Dual-channel DDR3 runs at 1333, 1600 or 1866 MHz across two slots, and the supplier notes a power supply of at least 500 W is required.
Suits builders targeting specific E5 v3 chips
The micro-ATX dimensions of 237 by 180 mm fit smaller server cases, and the layout provides one PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot, one x4 slot and one x1 slot for add-in cards. It is not for buyers who need more than two memory slots, support for other Xeon generations, or a guaranteed chipset choice. The rear I/O includes two USB 3.0, four USB 2.0, gigabit Ethernet and 5.1 audio via ALC662.

Questions about this item
What case and power supply does the 237 x 180 mm M-ATX board with 24-pin plus 8-pin power connectors need?
It fits an M-ATX or larger chassis and requires at least a 500 W PSU with both a 24-pin and an 8-pin EPS connector to power dual Xeon CPUs.
Which CPUs and memory modules install correctly, and where do builders go wrong?
Only the listed E5-2629 v3, 2649 v3, 2669 v3, 2673 v3, 2676 v3, 2678 v3 or 2696 v3 processors work; install two DDR3 REG ECC DIMMs at 1333, 1600 or 1866 MHz — non-ECC or unlisted CPUs will not post.
Which onboard components typically need attention over time?
The RTL8111H Gigabit Ethernet, ALC662 5.1 audio and the three fan headers are the main parts that may require driver updates, connector reseating or dust cleaning during the board's service life.
