Dell 76MFC 2c 1x16 2 CPU Riser Board for Powerdge R74

Product Description

The Dell 76MFC is a specialized riser board designed for the PowerEdge R74 server platform. This component plays a critical role in the server's architecture by integrating dual CPU sockets and providing a single PCI Express x16 slot. The presence of two CPU sockets indicates its support for dual-processor configurations, which is essential for high-performance computing tasks that require significant processing power. The riser board facilitates the connection and integration of these processors into the server's main system. In addition to CPU support, the 76MFC offers a PCI Express x16 slot, which is the standard interface for high-bandwidth expansion cards such as graphics cards, high-speed network adapters, or advanced storage controllers. This expansion capability allows administrators to tailor the server's capabilities to specific application needs, enhancing its versatility and performance. The design of the riser board ensures it fits precisely within the PowerEdge R74 chassis and connects seamlessly to the motherboard. This riser board is a key element in the modular design of Dell's server systems, enabling efficient use of space and resources. The 76MFC is intended for configurations where dual CPUs are required, and a single high-bandwidth PCIe slot is sufficient for expansion needs. It represents a specific configuration option for the PowerEdge R74, contributing to its flexibility and expandability.
