- Which CPUs does the X9DRL-IF support?
- It takes two Intel Xeon E5-2600 or E5-2600 v2 processors on LGA 2011. Check the BIOS revision for v2 support before buying chips.
- What memory does it need?
- Eight DDR3 DIMM slots, best filled with registered ECC memory. Unbuffered modules may not post.
- Does it have onboard video?
- No. The IF variant has no video output, so use IPMI or add a GPU for setup.
- How many drives can it connect?
- Six SATA ports, two at 6Gb/s and four at 3Gb/s. There is no NVMe support.
- Will it fit a normal case?
- It is standard ATX, so most mid-tower and rack cases accept it. Check CPU cooler height and socket spacing.
- Is it worth it over a newer X10 board?
- For a low-cost dual-socket lab, yes. For PCIe 3.0, NVMe or current CPUs, an X10 or X11 board is the better fit.
