Deep Micro-ATX Server Board

The ASRock Rack GNRD8UD-2Q is a Deep Micro-ATX server motherboard built for single-socket Intel Xeon 6700E-series processors. It measures 9.6 by 10.5 inches and provides eight 288-pin DDR5 slots supporting registered DIMMs at 6400 MT/s. Total memory capacity reaches 1 TB across the eight channels.

Suits Dense 25 GbE Deployments

This board suits builders who need dual 25 Gbps SFP28 links from the Intel E810-XXVAM2 controller in a compact chassis. It is not for buyers who require more than two x16 PCIe 5.0 slots or who need onboard 10 GbE RJ45 ports instead of SFP28.

1 TB DDR5 6400 Ceiling

The maximum supported memory is 1 TB of DDR5 6400 registered DIMMs across eight slots. Population rules and qualified vendor lists determine which specific modules reach that ceiling.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Intel Xeon 6700E-series processor into the single socket on this board?

Align the processor with the socket keying, lower it evenly, then secure the retention mechanism before attaching the heatsink; the step most often missed is connecting all three 8-pin ATX 12V power cables to the board.

Which components on this motherboard will need replacement over time?

The TPM module uses a 13-pin SPI header and the firmware resides on a 512Mb SPI flash ROM; both are socketed and can be swapped if a future security update or failure requires it.

What is the first limit reached when the dual 25GbE ports run at full throughput for extended periods?

The Intel E810-XXVAM2 controller tops out at 2 x 25Gbps, so aggregate bandwidth saturates before the PCIe 5.0 x16 or MCIO x8 links become a bottleneck.
