1-2 Processor and Chipset Overview

Built upon the functionality and capability of the Intel E5-2600(v3/v4) series

processors (Socket R3) and the Intel C612 PCH, the X10DGQ motherboard is

optimized for high-performance computing (HPC) and is ideal for scientic visual-

ization platforms.

With support of new Intel Microarchitecture 22nm (E5-2600v3)/14nm (E5-2600v4)

process technology built in, the X10DGQ motherboard dramatically increases

system performance.

The PCH C612 chip provides Enterprise SMbus and MCTP support, including the

following features:

• DDR4 288-pin memory support on Socket R3

• Support for MCTP Protocol and ME

• Support of SMBus speeds of up to 1 MHz for BMC connectivity

• Improved I/O capabilities to high-storage-capacity congurations

• Embedded platform

• BMC supports remote management, virtualization, and the security package

for enterprise platforms

Note: E5-2600v4 requires Revision 2.0 BIOS (or higher).

X10DGQ Motherboard User’s Manual

1-3 Special Features

Recovery from AC Power Loss

The Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting that determines how the system will

respond when AC power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose

for the system to remain powered off (in which case you must press the power

switch to turn it back on) or for it to automatically return to the power-on state. See

the Advanced BIOS Setup section for this setting. The default setting is Last State.

1-4 System Health Monitoring

This section describes the features of system health monitoring of the motherboard.

This motherboard has an onboard baseboard management controller (BMC) chip

that supports system health monitoring. An onboard voltage monitor will scan the

following onboard voltages continuously: +3.3V, 3.3V standby, +5V, +5V standby,

+12V, BMC, CPU, memory, chipset, and battery voltages. Once a voltage becomes

unstable, a warning or an error message is given. The user can adjust the voltage

thresholds to dene the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.

Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control

The system health monitoring support provided by the BMC controller can check

the RPM status of a cooling fan. The onboard CPU and chassis fans are controlled

by the thermal management via the onboard BMC.

Environmental Temperature Control

System-health sensors monitor the temperatures and voltage settings of the on-

board processors and the system in real time via the IPMI interface. Whenever

the temperature of the CPU or system exceeds a user-dened threshold, system/

CPU cooling fans will be turned on to prevent the CPU or system from overheating.

Note: To avoid possible system overheating, please be sure to provide

adequate airow to your system.

System Resource Alert

This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor 5. SuperDoctor 5 is used

to notify the user of certain system events. For example, you can congure

SuperDoctor 5 to provide you with warnings when the system temperature, CPU

temperatures, voltages, or fan speed goes beyond a predened range.

1-5 ACPI Features

ACPI stands for Advanced Conguration and Power Interface. The ACPI specica-

tion denes a exible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard way

to integrate power management features throughout a computer system, including

its hardware, operating system, and application software. This enables the system

to automatically turn on and off peripherals such as network cards, hard disk drives,

and printers.

In addition to enabling operating-system-directed power management, ACPI also

provides a generic system event mechanism for Plug-and-Play and an interface

independent of the operating system for conguration control. ACPI leverages the

Plug-and-Play BIOS data structures, while providing an implementation that is in-

dependent of the processor architecture and compatible with Windows 7, Windows

8/R2, and Windows 2012/R2 operating systems.

1-6 Power Supply

As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and

reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU

clock rates. In areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose

to install a line lter to shield the computer from noise. It is recommended that you

also install a power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.

1-7 Advanced Power Management

The following advanced power management features are supported by the moth-

erboard.

Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available when the Supermicro Power Manager [SPM] is installed)

The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (IPNM) provides your system with

real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy efciency.

Although IPNM Specication Version 1.5/2.0 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard

Management Controller), your system must also have an IPNM-compatible Manage-

ment Engine (ME) rmware installed to use this feature.

Note: Support for IPNM Specication Version 1.5 or Vision 2.0 depends

on the power supply used in the system.

Management Engine (ME)

The Management Engine, which is an ARC controller embedded in the IOH (I/O

Hub), provides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. The services

provided by SPS are different from those provided by the ME on client platforms.

2-3 Motherboard Installation

All motherboards have standard mounting holes to t different types of chassis.

Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both motherboard and

chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fas-

teners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard

to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly.

Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard tray.

Tools Needed

• Phillips screwdriver

• Pan-head screws (12 pieces)

Location of Mounting Holes

There are twelve (12) mounting holes on this motherboard indicated by the arrows.

Caution: 1) To avoid damaging the motherboard and its components,

please do not use a force greater than 8 lb/inch on each mounting screw

during motherboard installation. 2) Some components are very close to

the mounting holes. Please take precautionary measures to prevent dam-

age to these components when installing the motherboard to the chassis.

X10DGQ Motherboard User’s Manual

Installing the Motherboard

Note: Always connect the power cord last, and always remove it before

adding, removing, or changing any hardware components. Install the I/O

shield into the chassis.

1. Locate the mounting holes on the motherboard.

2. Locate the matching mounting holes on the chassis. Align the mounting holes

on the motherboard against the mounting holes on the chassis.

3. Install standoffs in the chassis as needed.

4. Install the motherboard into the chassis carefully to avoid damaging mother-

board components.

5. Using the Phillips screwdriver, insert a pan-head #6 screw into a mounting

hole on the motherboard and its matching mounting hole on the chassis.

6. Repeat Step 5 to insert #6 screws into all mounting holes.

7. Make sure that the motherboard is securely placed in the chassis.

2-4 Processor and Heatsink Installation

Warning: When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct pressure on

the label area. Also, improper CPU installation or socket/pin misalignment can cause

serious damage to the CPU or the motherboard that will require RMA repairs. Be sure

to read and follow all instructions thoroughly before installing your CPU and heatsink.

Notes:

• Always connect the power cord last, and always remove it before adding,

removing, or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install

the processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.

• If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certied multi-

directional heatsink only.

• Make sure to install the motherboard into the chassis before you install the

CPU heatsink.

• When receiving a motherboard without a processor pre-installed, make sure

that the plastic CPU socket cap is in place and that none of the socket pins

are bent; otherwise, contact your retailer immediately.

• Refer to the Supermicro website for updates on CPU support.
