Server board with LGA 1200 socket

The ASRock Rack W480D4U is a micro-ATX server motherboard built around the Intel W480 chipset. It accepts Intel Xeon W-1200 and 10th Generation Intel Core processors in an LGA 1200 socket. Four 288-pin DDR4 slots provide dual-channel memory up to 2933 MHz with ECC support depending on the installed CPU. The board measures 9.6 by 9.6 inches.

Builders needing dense storage and remote management

This board suits builders who want eight SATA 6 Gb/s ports and two PCIe 3.0 x4 M.2 slots in a compact server chassis. Dual 1 GbE LAN ports plus a dedicated IPMI interface handle data and out-of-band management simultaneously. Buyers who require 10 GbE networking, more than three PCIe expansion slots or support for newer processor generations should look elsewhere.

PCIe slot layout decides expansion plans

The primary x16 slot (Slot 6) drops to x8 electrical when the x8 slot (Slot 4) is populated because both connect to the CPU. A third x1 slot (Slot 7) runs from the chipset. This sharing arrangement determines whether a full-length GPU and an additional x8 add-in card can run at full speed together.

Questions about this item

What CPU socket and memory type do I need to populate this motherboard?

The board requires an LGA 1200 processor from the Intel Xeon W-1200 or 10th Gen Intel Core families and four 288-pin DDR4 UDIMMs running at up to 2933 MHz.

Will my existing PCIe 3.0 add-in cards fit the available expansion slots?

The board provides one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, one PCIe 3.0 x8 slot and one PCIe 3.0 x1 slot; the x16 slot drops to x8 when the x8 slot is occupied.

How can I verify the board is operating correctly after assembly?

Connect a monitor to the HDMI or D-Sub port driven by the Aspeed AST2500 controller; a successful POST screen and IPMI interface confirm basic operation.
