Socket and chipset

The ASUS P9X79 WS/IPMI is an ATX motherboard built on the Intel X79 chipset for LGA 2011 processors. It supports DDR3 memory up to 64GB, providing a foundation for workstations that need high core counts and large memory capacity.

Workstation builders and legacy maintainers

This board suits builders assembling or repairing X79-based systems that require quad-channel DDR3 and the LGA 2011 socket. It is not for buyers who want a new platform with current-generation CPU support, modern memory standards, or the latest connectivity options.

Included SATA cable and I/O shield

The package provides one SATA cable and the chassis I/O back panel, letting you connect a drive and finish the rear-panel cut-out immediately. No other accessories, original packaging or additional cables are included.

Questions about this item

Which LGA 2011 processor do I need to install so the ASUS P9X79 WS/IPMI will post?

The board accepts any LGA 2011 CPU; choose a Sandy Bridge-E or Ivy Bridge-E part that matches your core-count and thermal budget.

Can I keep my existing DDR3 modules when moving to this X79 ATX motherboard?

Yes — the board runs DDR3 up to 64 GB across its eight slots, so your current kits will work if they are standard DDR3 DIMMs.

How do I verify the IPMI LAN port is active after first power-on?

Connect the dedicated management LAN cable, enter the BIOS, enable IPMI, then ping the BMC address shown on the IPMI configuration screen.
