X10DRG-Q 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 mother-

board. This motherboard has an onboard BMC chip that monitors system health.

An onboard voltage monitor will scan the following onboard voltages continuously:

+3.3V, 3.3V standby, +5V, +5V standby, +12V, -12V, CPU core, memory, chipset,and

battery voltages. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given, or an error

message is sent to the screen. 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 fan speeds are

controlled by IPMI Thermal Management.

Environmental Temperature Control

A thermal control sensor embedded in IPMI 2.0 monitors the CPU temperatures in

real time and will turn on the onboard cooling fans whenever the CPU temperature

exceeds a user-dened threshold to prevent the CPU from overheating, and it will

also send warning messages to alert the user when the chassis temperature is

too high.

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, and fan speeds go beyond a predened range.

Chapter 1: Overview

1-13

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 PC system, including

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

to automatically turn on and off peripherals such as CD-ROMs, network cards, hard

disk drives and printers.

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

a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play, and an operating system-

independent interface for conguration control. ACPI leverages the Plug and

Play BIOS data structures, while providing a processor architecture-independent

implementation that is compatible with Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows 8 and

Windows 2012 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.

The X10DRG-Q motherboard accommodates ATX 24-pin, 12V 8-pin, and 12V 4-pin

power connectors. Although most power supplies generally meet the specications

required by the CPU, some are inadequate. In addition, two 8-pin power connections

and one 4-pin power connection are also required to ensure adequate power sup-

ply to the system. Your power supply must also supply at least 1.5A of 5V standby

power for the Ethernet ports.

Warning: To avoid damaging the power supply or the motherboard, please use a

power supply that contains a 24-pin, two 8-pin, and a 4-pin power connectors. Be

sure to connect the power supply to the 24-pin power connector (JPWR1), two 8-pin

power connectors (JPWR2, JPWR3) and the 4-pin power connector (JPWR4) on the

motherboard. Failure in doing so may void the manufacturer warranty on your power

supply and motherboard.

It is strongly recommended that you use a high quality power supply that meets ATX

power supply Specication 2.02 or above. It must also be SSI compliant. (For more

information, please refer to the website at http://www.ssiforum.org/). Additionally, 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.

1-14

X10DRG-Q Motherboard User’s Manual

1-7 Advanced Power Management

The following new advanced power management features are supported by this

motherboard:

Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available
when the SPM Utility is Installed)

The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager 3.0 (IPNM) provides your system with

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

Although IPNM Specication Version 2.0/3.0 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard

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

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

Note: IPNM support is dependent on the power supply used in the system.

Management Engine (ME)

Management Engine, an ARC controller embedded in the PCH, provides Server

Platform Services (SPS) support to your system. The services provided by SPS are

different from those provided by the ME on client platforms.

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 (14 pieces)

•Standoffs (14 pieces, if needed)

Location of Mounting Holes

There are fourteen (14) mounting holes on this motherboard as shown below.

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