The ASUS P9X79-WS/IPMI is a socket LGA-2011 workstation board built on the Intel X79 Express chipset for Sandy Bridge-E and Ivy Bridge-E Core i7 and Xeon E5 processors. Its defining feature is an onboard IPMI management controller, which lets an administrator power the machine on and off, watch sensors and reach the console remotely, a capability most consumer X79 boards lack. It offers four-channel DDR4-era memory slots, multiple PCIe x16 slots for multi-GPU work and a server-grade power design. It suits buyers building or repairing a workstation who need remote management and many expansion slots, and it is a used-market part now, so condition and BIOS support for the CPU you plan to fit matter more than the spec sheet.
