Supermicro X11SRM-VF Micro-ATX Server Motherboard for Intel Xeon Scalable MBD-X11SRM-VF-B

Building a compact server or workstation around Intel Xeon Scalable processors often forces a compromise between board size and feature set. The Supermicro X11SRM-VF resolves that tension: a Micro-ATX board that retains six memory channels, dual Gigabit Ethernet, and full IPMI management without demanding a full-size chassis.

Who is it for

System integrators and IT administrators who need a reliable, remotely manageable platform for virtualization, storage, or edge computing in space-constrained environments. It fits standard Micro-ATX cases while supporting up to 1.5TB of LRDIMM memory and a single Xeon Scalable CPU.

Main features

• Single LGA 3647 socket for Intel Xeon Scalable processors (1st and 2nd Gen)
• Intel C622 chipset with 8x SATA3 ports and RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 support
• Six DDR4 ECC RDIMM/LRDIMM slots, up to 2933MHz, maximum 1.5TB
• Dual Gigabit Ethernet via Intel i210-AT, plus dedicated IPMI LAN port
• Aspeed AST2500 BMC with IPMI 2.0 and KVM over IP for remote management
• Expansion: 1x PCIe 3.0 x16, 1x PCIe 3.0 x8, 1x PCIe 3.0 x4 (in x8 slot)
• Rear I/O: 2x USB 3.0, 2x USB 2.0, VGA, dual LAN, dedicated IPMI LAN

• Socket: LGA 3647 (Socket P)
• Chipset: Intel C622
• Memory: 6x DDR4 DIMM, ECC RDIMM/LRDIMM, up to 2933MHz
• Max memory: 1.5TB LRDIMM / 768GB RDIMM
• Storage: 8x SATA3 (6Gbps), RAID 0/1/5/10
• Network: 2x Gigabit Ethernet (Intel i210-AT)
• Management: IPMI 2.0, KVM over IP, dedicated LAN
• Graphics: Aspeed AST2500 BMC
• Power connectors: 24-pin ATX, 8-pin EPS

Tips

Pair this board with a 2nd Gen Xeon Scalable processor to take advantage of higher memory speeds and improved performance per watt. For rackmount deployments, choose a chassis with front-to-back airflow to keep the VRM and chipset cool under sustained load.
