YINGHUA X99 Dual LGA2011 Server Motherboard 2×E5-2620 V3

Dual LGA2011 workstation board

This YINGHUA X99 motherboard ships with two E5-2620 V3 processors installed and supports up to eight DDR4 ECC modules at 2133, 2400 or 2800 MHz. It targets builders assembling a multi-socket server or render node who want a ready-to-run dual-CPU platform without sourcing matched CPUs separately. The board provides six SATA 3.0 ports and two M.2 slots that accept PCIe-only or PCIe and SATA drives. Buyers who need more than 16 cores per socket or integrated 10 GbE should look elsewhere.

Thermals and power in normal use

The package includes a switch cable for front-panel power control but does not contain CPU coolers, so thermal performance depends entirely on the heatsinks you choose for the LGA2011 sockets. Two 6-core processors at stock frequency draw moderate power under typical server loads, yet sustained all-core work will require adequate airflow across the VRM area. No fan headers or fan curves are detailed in the supplied data. Builders planning quiet operation must select low-RPM coolers and verify case clearance themselves.

Bundled accessories and software impact

A single SATA cable and the front-panel switch cable are the only items included beyond the board and the two CPUs. No driver disc, management utility or RAID key is mentioned, so operating-system installation and remote-management setup rely on standard Intel and Realtek 8106E or 8111H drivers. The lack of additional cables means you must source extra SATA leads for every drive beyond the first. Software-wise, the hardware offers no proprietary monitoring or overclocking tools.
