The Power of the Latest Xeon Generation on a Compact Board
By combining a microATX format with the brand new Intel Xeon processors E3-1200 V3 family and all its latest technologies, this board is a versatile solution for SMBs and independent professionals to build affordable yet high performing systems within compact rack or tower enclosures.
From a mainstream intranet system performing standard tasks like file or print serving, a web server dedicated to a low traffic websites, a basic engineering or content creation workstation, to the building block of a computing grid or a render farm, the possibilities offered by this model equal its performance capabilities and make it a perfect candidate for a high value acquisition.
Intel® Xeon® Processor E3-1200 V3 Product Family
Still based on the 22nm tri-gate lithography, this new generation of Xeon processors is built on Intel's latest microarchitecture and brings up to 15% computing power improvements and increased L3 cache across the line.
In addition, this new generation will also bring to the Xeon E3 family the support of 1600MHz ECC memory, Intel Trusted Execution and Virtualization technologies, as well as AVX 2.0 and TSX instructions.
Last but not least, the Xeon E3-1200 V3 processors will include the latest Intel integrated graphics, which will bring the support of OGL3.2+, DirectX 11.1, and higher frequencies.
New Generation LAN Controller
The new generation LAN controller built on those two motherboards feature several improvements over the previous generation that has been a long-time standard in the server market.
In addition to overall performance and error correcting improvements, the power consumption has been reduced thanks to the on-chip integration of switching voltage regulators improving the efficiency of the power delivery to the controller.
This new controller also received new audio/video bridging features, notably time-stamping and synchronization of time sensitive applications through traffic shaping, time-based transmission, and precision time-stamping.
Two new management functions are also included, with the support of common transport for LAN-to-BMC / local OS-to-BMC and standards-based transport for BMC-to-adapter communication.
Support of PCIe Generation 3.0
With the support of the latest PCI Express Gen.3.0 technology directly on the CPU, the GA-6LASL is fully configured to provide users with dramatically reduced latency and improved data bandwidth to get the most out of its expansion accessories.
