Intel's Xeon Shows Its Stuff in 7 Motherboards
Gigabyte GA-9ITDW (E7525)
Gigabyte's GA-9ITDW, revision 1.0.
Board Revision: 1.0
BIOS Version: F1E (09/14/2004)
The GA-9ITDW is focused on the high-end workstation segment, and thus comes with the 6700PXH Southbridge and an Ultra320 SCSI controller. However, our test sample was still a bit away from being final, which is why the fan control did not work yet. As a result, we had to sustain a considerable noise level while testing.
There are six DIMM sockets waiting to be equipped.
This board supports DDR2 memory up to a per-module capacity of one gigabyte. Using all six DIMM sockets results in a maximum stage of expansion of six GB.
The 6700PXH offers three PCI-X-Slots. The green one is shared with the onboard SCSI device.
