Socket LGA 2011-v3 workstation board

This motherboard pairs an Intel X99 chipset with an LGA 2011-v3 socket in a standard ATX layout. It supports DDR4 memory up to 128GB maximum capacity. The board is supplied new and includes a rear I/O shield plus one SATA cable.

For multi-threaded workloads needing high core

The platform suits builders targeting rendering, simulation or virtualisation tasks that benefit from many CPU cores and large memory pools. Buyers who want integrated graphics output should look elsewhere because the socket requires a discrete graphics card. Systems needing modern high-speed storage interfaces not listed here will not find them on this board.

DDR4 128GB memory ceiling

The single specification that decides fit is the 128GB DDR4 limit set by the chipset and socket combination. If the intended workload demands more memory than this, the board cannot accommodate it.

Questions about this item

How is the ASUS X99-WS/IPMI installed in an ATX case, and which step is often missed?

Mount the board on the ATX standoffs, connect the 24-pin and CPU power cables, then fit the supplied I/O back panel before securing the screws — skipping the back panel leaves ports misaligned.

What maintenance will the onboard metal battery need later?

The metal battery maintains BIOS settings; when the system starts losing time or date, the battery must be replaced to restore CMOS operation.

What limit appears first when the X99 chipset runs sustained workloads with 128GB DDR4?

The chipset and voltage regulators hit thermal limits before the memory ceiling, so adequate case airflow and heatsink contact become the practical ceiling.
