Základná doska ASRock GNR2D16-2T, Intel SoC, LGA 4710 (Socket E2), EEB, 16 DDR5 slotov, max. 128 GB, 10Gb Ethernet

ASRock GNR2D16-2T is an EEB server motherboard with Intel SoC and LGA 4710 (Socket E2) that supports Intel Xeon 6300-series processors. It provides 16 DDR5-SDRAM DIMM slots (8+8, 1DPC) for up to 128 GB of memory, multiple PCIe 5.0 / CXL 2.0 expansion slots, two 10GbE ports via Intel X710-AT2 and integrated ASPEED AST2600 remote management. The board includes SATA III storage, support for two M.2 drives, and a UEFI AMI BIOS suitable for rack or tower server deployments where high throughput and manageability are required.

Advantages

The motherboard combines a high-density DDR5 memory layout with broad PCIe5.0/CXL2.0 expansion, enabling modern accelerators and NVMe add-in cards. Dual 10GbE provides increased network bandwidth for virtualization and data services, while ASPEED AST2600 and IPMI support deliver remote management and monitoring. The EEB form factor and Intel SoC design make it compatible with typical server chassis and enterprise workloads.

Suitable for

• Virtualization hosts and hypervisor nodes
• Database servers and storage controllers
• Compute servers using PCIe5.0 accelerators or CXL devices
• Rack or tower server deployments requiring 10Gb networking

Key specifications

• Form factor: EEB (12.24" x 13.3")
• Processor support: Intel Xeon 6300-series (LGA 4710 / Socket E2)
• Chipset: Intel SoC
• Memory: 16 DDR5-SDRAM slots (8+8 DIMM, 1DPC), up to 128 GB
• PCIe / CXL: 5 × PCIe5.0/CXL2.0 x16, 1 × PCIe5.0/CXL2.0 x8, 1 × MCIO (PCIe5.0/CXL2.0 x8)
• Storage: 2 × M.2 (PCIe5.0 x2), up to 8 × SATA III (6 Gb/s)
• Networking: 2 × RJ45 10GbE (Intel X710-AT2)
• Management: IPMI with ASPEED AST2600
• BIOS: UEFI AMI 512 Mbit, ACPI v4.0

How to use

Install the ASRock GNR2D16-2T into a compatible EEB server chassis and mount a supported Intel Xeon 6300-series processor into the LGA 4710 socket following standard CPU installation procedures. Populate DDR5 DIMMs in matched pairs across the 16 slots for optimal performance, install storage devices to M.2 or SATA connectors as needed, and connect network cables to the Intel X710-AT2 ports. Configure BIOS/UEFI settings for boot order, memory profiles, and enable IPMI for remote management. Install the operating system and required drivers, including chipset, network, and ASPEED management firmware.

Recommendations

Populate memory symmetrically across the 8+8 channels and use supported DDR5 RDIMM/MRDIMM modules to reach stable performance. For high-throughput storage or accelerator use, prefer PCIe5.0 NVMe cards and CXL-capable devices. Ensure proper BIOS updates and IPMI firmware are applied before deploying into production.
