Supermicro 7047AX-TRF/72RF SuperWorkstation Preview

James Morris January 21, 2014 Featured Tech Reviews, Server, Workstation

The Super X9DAX-iF (Socket R LGA 2011) motherboard uses Intel's C602 chipset. We have already mentioned its 16 DIMM slots, eight per Socket R (LGA 2011).

It also offers two 16-lane PCI Express 3.0 slots, three eight-lane PCI Express 3.0 slots, and a further slot which can either be used for an eight-lane PCI Express 3.0 Supermico Universal IO card or a four-lane PCI Express 2.0 card.

There are eight SATA 2 and two SATA 3 ports, plus dual Gigabit Ethernet ports driven by an Intel i350 chipset, and another LAN port for IPMI 2.0 management.

There are two USB 3.0 ports on the rear panel, plus four USB 2.0, with headers available for an additional two in each category.

This port allocation will be more than adequate for a workstation environment.

    Our business has several of these systems and they have been generally well performed. I am not so sure about their technical support side as they seem to be a little disorganised, but its probably not a discussion for a public billboard.

    Still good, system, but I agree, a GPU upgrade is in order for this one. no SSD is another glaring ommission.
