Supermicro - Air Shroud MCP-310-74702-0B

Data center technicians and system builders working with Supermicro X10DRG dual-socket server boards rely on this air shroud to direct airflow precisely over CPUs and memory. Without it, hot spots can form, leading to throttling and premature component wear. This shroud snaps into place over the motherboard, creating a defined channel that guides cool air from the front fans across the hottest components and out the rear. It is the same accessory included with Supermicro server chassis designed for X10DRG-Q, X10DRG-HT, X10DRG-O+, and X10DRG-H motherboards.

Key specifications

• Compatible with Supermicro X10DRG Series motherboards: X10DRG-Q, X10DRG-HT, X10DRG-O+, X10DRG-H
• Material: high-quality ABS plastic, black color
• Tool-less snap-on installation – no screws or tools required
• Passive airflow guidance for CPU and memory modules
• Designed for dual-socket server platforms in rackmount or tower systems
• RoHS compliant
• Manufacturer part number: MCP-310-74702-0B

Why choose it

Proper airflow is critical for server stability and longevity. This shroud is engineered specifically for the X10DRG layout, ensuring optimal cooling without interfering with other components. Its durable plastic construction withstands the heat and vibration of continuous operation, and the snap-on design makes installation and removal quick during maintenance. By reducing recirculation and bypass, it helps maintain lower operating temperatures, which can extend the life of your CPUs and memory and reduce fan power consumption.

Ideal use cases

• Building or upgrading a Supermicro server with an X10DRG motherboard
• Replacing a damaged or missing air shroud in an existing system
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters where thermal management is critical
• Workstations and rackmount servers that demand reliable cooling under load

Good to know

This air shroud is a genuine Supermicro accessory, ensuring a perfect fit and compatibility. It is intended for use with compatible Supermicro chassis that support the X10DRG motherboard form factor. Always verify your chassis and motherboard model before ordering. The shroud is lightweight and easy to handle, and it does not require any additional mounting hardware.
