  • Three PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots allow multiple GPU or accelerator cards

Dual LGA 2011-3 workstation board

The HUANANZHI X99-F8D is an E-ATX motherboard built for two Intel LGA 2011-v3 processors. It provides eight DDR4 slots running in four-channel mode at 1866, 2133 or 2400 MHz with a maximum capacity of 256 GB. The board uses a 12-layer PCB and requires an E-ATX case plus a power supply with two 8-pin CPU connectors.

Multi-GPU compute and storage servers

This board suits builds that need three PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots for multiple GPUs or accelerator cards, ten SATA 3.0 ports for large drive arrays, and dual gigabit Ethernet links. It is not intended for compact cases, single-socket consumer CPUs, or systems that rely on integrated graphics because the board has none.

Dual-socket LGA 2011-v3 requirement

The single specification that decides compatibility is the dual LGA 2011-v3 socket layout; only Intel 5th generation Core-series processors for this socket will function. Buyers must verify their CPUs match this exact socket before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the HUANANZHI X99-F8D include a CPU, cooler or RAM, or must I buy them separately?

The board is sold alone; you must supply two LGA 2011-v3 processors, up to eight DDR4 modules and an E-ATX case with a 500 W supply that has two 8-pin CPU power connectors.

Should I choose the M.2 NVME slot or the M.2 NGFF slot for my boot drive?

Use the M.2 NVME slot for a fast NVMe SSD; the M.2 NGFF slot is wired for SATA-based M.2 drives and will not reach NVMe speeds.

What does the 256 GB memory ceiling mean once the board is in a real machine?

With eight slots you can install eight 32 GB DDR4 DIMMs at 1866, 2133 or 2400 MHz, giving a total of 256 GB across four memory channels.
