Intel server boards contain a number of high-density VLSI and power delivery components that need adequate airflow for
cooling. Intel’s own chassis are designed and tested to meet the intended thermal requirements of these components when
the fully integrated system is used together. It is the responsibility of the system integrator that chooses not to use Intel
developed server building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating parameters to determine the amount of airflow
required for their specific application and environmental conditions. Intel Corporation can not be held responsible if
components fail or the server board does not operate correctly when used outside any of their published operating or nonoperating limits.
