Dell GFKVD Socket LGA2011 Intel C600 Chipset System Board for PE R620

Product Description

The Dell GFKVD system board is the core component of the Dell PowerEdge R620, a highly versatile 2U rack server designed for dense computing environments. It features the LGA2011 socket, which is compatible with Intel's powerful Xeon E5-2600 v1 and v2 processor families. This allows the R620 to be configured with high core count processors, delivering significant computational power for virtualization, databases, and high-performance computing tasks. Memory support is provided through DDR3 ECC Registered DIMMs, offering high bandwidth and data integrity crucial for enterprise workloads. The board typically includes a substantial number of DIMM slots, enabling large memory capacities to support memory-intensive applications and extensive virtualization deployments. The ECC functionality ensures that memory errors are detected and corrected, minimizing downtime and data corruption. Expansion and connectivity are robust on the GFKVD. It features multiple PCIe Gen3 slots, providing ample bandwidth for high-speed peripherals such as 10GbE network adapters, Fibre Channel HBAs, and advanced RAID controllers. Integrated networking options often include dual 1GbE or 10GbE ports, and the board is designed to interface seamlessly with the R620's chassis, including support for hot-plug drive bays and redundant power supplies, ensuring high availability and serviceability.
