Based on the Haswell microarchitecture, these new Intel processor families bring a whole new set of performance boosting features. In addition to the usual boost in frequencies and core numbers, the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 V4/ V3 product family are the first in the industry to support the DDR4 memory technology.
Moreover, these new processors include encryption performance overhead reduction features, and technologies improving run time and migration VM integrity.
DDR4 Memory Support
The Intel Xeon E5-2600 V4/ V3 product families are the first wave of server processors to support the DDR4 memory technology. Compared to DDR3, this new generation brings:

Get the Memory Performance Edge
On the previous server platforms from Intel, the maximum supported memory frequency has always been automatically downgraded by design when more DIMMs were being added on a server motherboard. As this trade-off between performance and capacity represents a dilemma to many memory-hungry server applications, GIGABYTE offers a unique solution. All our motherboards based on the LGA 2011-3 socket support by default a maximum frequency of 2400 MHz in any memory configuration.
Network Flexibility
Dedicated LAN Card Slot
This motherboard uses a mezzanine card slot with four PCI-Express lanes with custom mounting sockets to receive one of our proprietary LAN controller cards. Positioned right between the board’s socket and I/O, it can add more LAN ports to the standard interface and fit into a larger range of possible network scenarios.
