Overview
The Intel S3210SH server board is a single-socket LGA775 motherboard designed for server-grade computing environments. This board features a VRD (Voltage Regulator Down) to support one processor and is compliant with the VRD 12 DC-DC Converter Design Guide Line, providing a maximum of 125 A. The S3210SH family includes variants such as the S3210SHLC and S3210SHLX, offering flexibility in expansion connectivity.
Key Features
- Single-processor LGA775 socket with VRD 12 power delivery
- 125 A maximum VRD output for stable CPU power delivery
- Hardware monitoring for processor VTTEN (Output enable for VTT) pin management
- Support for DDR2 memory modules with multiple memory bank configurations
- Multiple board variants (SHLC, SHLX, SHL, SHV) for different I/O requirements
Technical Specifications
The Intel S3210SH integrates Intel chipset technology with PCI-X or PCI-Express connectivity options depending on the SKU variant. Processors in the 775-land package are based on the same core micro-architecture, maintaining compatibility with 32-bit software written for the IA-32 instruction set while supporting 64-bit native mode operation when coupled with supported 64-bit operating systems.
