GIGABYTE brings Intel’s Skylake architecture to the SOHO segment with a new offering: the ‘Basin Falls’ single-socket platform for workstations. This new build offers a wealth of I/O options, including multiple PCIe lanes to support graphics, and other add-on card options, as well as direct SATA and USB ports. GIGABYTE’s precision engineering enables you to fulfil your workstation workload needs with ease. Intel’s Skylake-W (Basin Falls) platform brings increases in compute, I/O and memory compared to the previous generation. This functionality, with multiple USB and SATA connections from the chipset, allows for: I/O Options 20% more PCIe lanes gen-on-gen Extra 16 PCIe lanes from the PCH Supports USB and SATA connectors Memory 11% more bandwidth vs. previous generation 4 channels – maximum 2666MT/s at 1DPC or 2DPC Compute 1S: up to 18 cores; Intel HS Hyper-threading; per core power management Dense Storage/USB Design GIGABYTE’s engineers have maximized the storage and external connection scope of this board with 10 SATA ports and 8 USB ports. SATA Ports 8x SATA from the chipset 2x ‘GSATA’ via the onboard Marvell 9172 SATA controller (from PCIe) USB Sockets 8x USB 3.0 2x USB 3.1 – one Type ‘A’ and one Type ‘C’ U.2 Connectors Mini-SAS HD type PCIe Gen3 x4 (NVMe) connection offering 32Gb/s for high-speed boot
