Safety information
Electrical safety
• To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet
before relocating the system.
• When adding or removing devices to or from the system, ensure that the power cables
for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected. If possible,
disconnect all power cables from the existing system before you add a device.
• Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard, ensure that all power
cables are unplugged.
• Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord. These devices
could interrupt the grounding circuit.
• Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your area. If you are
not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you are using, contact your local power
company.
• If the power supply is broken, do not try to x it by yourself. Contact a qualied service
technician or your retailer.
Operation safety
• Before installing the motherboard and adding devices on it, carefully read all the manuals
that came with the package.
• Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected and the power
cables are not damaged. If you detect any damage, contact your dealer immediately.
• To avoid short circuits, keep paper clips, screws, and staples away from connectors,
slots, sockets and circuitry.
• Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in any area
where it may become wet.
• Place the product on a stable surface.
• If you encounter technical problems with the product, contact a qualied service
technician or your retailer.
DO NOT throw the motherboard in municipal waste. This product has been designed to
enable proper reuse of parts and recycling. This symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin
indicates that the product (electrical and electronic equipment) should not be placed in
municipal waste. Check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.
DO NOT throw the mercury-containing button cell battery in municipal waste. This symbol
of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the battery should not be placed in municipal
waste.

support QPI link speed of up to 9.6GT/s.
Intel ® AVX 2.0
Intel® AVX 2.0 extends 256-bit vector support for integer vector operations, doubles
xed point arithmetic throughput, adds support for new vector gather, permutes/blend,
vector shifts resulting in xed and oating-point algorithm improvements. Also, Intel's new
microarchitecture doubles the cache bandwidth at L1/L2 to support higher FLOPS and
contributes to greater performance in signal and image processing applications.
Next Generation of processor power management
Intel ® Xeon processor E5-2600 v3 product family enhances the processor power
management with the features of Energy Efcient Turbo, Uncore Frequency Scaling, and
Per-Core P-state. Also, the Integrated Voltage Regulator enables generational performance
and power improvements that the standard VR solutions cannot provide.
DDR4 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR4 memory that features faster clock frequencies and higher
data transfer rates of 1333 MT/s to 2133 MT/s (million transfers per second). DDR4 offers a
lower voltage standard of 1.2V that reduces memory power demand and provides improved
performance.
1.3 Serial number label
Before requesting support from the ASUS Technical Support team, you must take note of
the motherboard's serial number containing 12 characters xxS2xxxxxxxx shown in the gure
below. With the correct serial number of the product, ASUS Technical Support team members
can then offer a quicker and satisfying solution to your problems.

1-4 Chapter 1: Product Introduction
M.2 Support
This motherboard features the M.2 slot, which shares bandwidth with the SATA 6Gb/s port
and PCI-E Gen2 p18-x1 and is dedicated to the operating system.
PCI Express 3.0
PCI Express 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the PCI Express bus standard that providse twice the
performance and speed of PCIe 2.0. It provides an optimal graphics performance,
unprecedented data speed, and seamless transition with its complete backward compatibility
to PCIe 2.0 devices.
Intel ® I210AT LAN Solution
The motherboard comes with two Gigabit LAN controllers and ports which provide a total
solution for your networking needs. The onboard Intel® I210AT Gigabit LAN controllers use
the PCI Express interface and could achieve network throughput close to Gigabit bandwidth.
Intel ® C612 Series Chipset
The Intel ® C612 series chipset supports with enterprise class features which is targeted for
Cloud and Storage applications. It is optimized and validated to work with the latest Xeon ®
processor E5-2600 v3 product family, compared with the last generation, it also reduces the
TDP, supports USB 3.0 with up to 10 SATA III ports thus bringing more features and benets
to the target users.
Serial ATA III technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA III technology through the Serial ATA interface and
Intel® C612 chipset, delivering up to 6 Gb/s data transfer rates. It also provides enhanced
scalability, faster data retrieval, and double the bandwidth of current bus systems.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored to prevent overheating and damage. The system fan
rotations per minute (RPM) is monitored for timely failure detection. The chip monitors the
voltage levels to ensure a stable supply of current for critical components.
1.4.2 Innovative ASUS features
ASUS Fan Speed control technology
The ASUS Fan Speed control technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to the
system loading to ensure a quiet, cool, and efcient operation.

the image below.
2.2.2 Screw holes
Place nine (9) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the
chassis.
DO NOT overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.
Ensure to unplug the chassis power cord before installing or removing the motherboard.
Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components!

Inthefuture,youmayneedtoinstallexpansioncards.Thefollowingsubsectionsdescribethe
slots and the expansion cards that they support.
2.5.1 Installing an expansion card
Toinstallanexpansioncard:
1. Beforeinstallingtheexpansioncard,readthedocumentationthatcamewithitand
make the necessary hardware settings for the card.
2. Removethesystemunitcover(ifyourmotherboardisalreadyinstalledinachassis).
3. Removethebracketoppositetheslotthatyouintendtouse.Keepthescrewforlater

4. Alignthecardconnectorwiththeslotandpressrmlyuntilthecardiscompletely
seated on the slot.
5. Secure the card to the chassis with the screw you removed earlier.
6. Replacethesystemcover.
2.5.2 Configuring an expansion card
Afterinstallingtheexpansioncard,congureitbyadjustingthesoftwaresettings.
1. TurnonthesystemandchangethenecessaryBIOSsettings,ifany.See Chapter 4 for
informationonBIOSsetup.
2. AssignanIRQtothecard.
Refertothetable Standard Interrupt assignments in section Interrupt assignments for
more information.
3. Install the software drivers for the expansion card.
Ensure to unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion cards. Failure to do
so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.
WhenusingPCIcardsonsharedslots,ensurethatthedriverssupport“ShareIRQ”orthat
thecardsdonotneedIRQassignments.Otherwise,conictsmayarisebetweenthetwo
