Green rectangular E-ATX motherboard with two large CPU sockets and eight memory slots

HUANANZHI

HUANANZHI F8D PLUS LGA 2011 Intel motherboard dual Xeon E5 2696 V3

SKU CH-XRRZ-C7S4Y

Dual 18-core Xeon E5 2696 V3 processors on a C612 X99 board with eight DDR4 slots, ten SATA3 ports, twin M.2 slots and dual Gigabit Ethernet

  • CPU Socket TypeLGA 2011
  • Dual 18-core Xeon processors deliver 36 threads for heavy workloads
  • Eight DDR4 slots support up to 64 GB per module in quad-channel mode
  • 12-phase power on a 12-layer PCB feeds both 145 W CPUs stably
  • Three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots plus two M.2 connectors provide flexible expansion
  • Dual gigabit Ethernet and 7.1-channel audio cover networking and sound needs

Dual 18-core Xeon E5 2696 V3 platform

This HUANANZHI F8D PLUS motherboard arrives with two Xeon E5 2696 V3 processors installed. Each CPU delivers 18 cores and 36 threads at 2.3 GHz with 45 MB L3 cache. The C612 chipset provides the foundation for dual-socket operation. The kit targets workstations that need high thread counts for rendering, virtualization or scientific workloads.

8-channel DDR4 E-ATX workstation board

The board suits builders who want a ready-to-run dual Xeon system with 8 DDR4 slots supporting 1866, 2133 and 2400 MHz speeds. Four-channel memory architecture scales to 8 x 64 GB modules. Six SATA3 and four SSATA3 ports give ample drive connectivity. Dual gigabit Ethernet and 7.1 audio cover network and sound needs. Buyers needing newer instruction sets, lower power draw or standard ATX dimensions should consider other platforms.

12-phase power on 12-layer PCB

The 12-phase VRM across a 12-layer PCB feeds two 145 W processors through 24-pin plus dual 8-pin connectors. This power delivery design is the spec that determines whether the board can sustain full all-core loads without throttling. Three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and two M.2 interfaces (one NVMe x4, one shared SATA/PCIe) handle expansion. E-ATX 300 x 320 mm footprint requires a compatible chassis.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the dual Xeon E5 2696 V3 CPUs are running correctly after assembly?

Enter the BIOS and confirm both processors are detected with 18 cores and 36 threads each at 2.3 GHz; then run a multi-threaded stress test to check stability across all 36 threads per CPU.

What comes in the combo kit and which parts must I source separately?

The kit includes the F8D PLUS motherboard and two Xeon E5 2696 V3 processors; you must add DDR4 memory modules, storage drives, a power supply with 24-pin plus two 8-pin connectors, and a CPU cooler for each socket.

Which memory speed should I choose for the quad-channel DDR4 controller?

The board supports DDR4 at 1866, 2133 and 2400 MHz; pick 2400 MHz modules for maximum bandwidth, or match the speed of any existing sticks you plan to reuse.
