Giga Computing Technology Unveils Powerful Workstation Motherboards with Intel W790 Chipset

Giga Computing Technology, a subsidiary of GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY based in Taiwan, unveiled two new motherboards, namely the "MW83-RP0" and "MW53-HP0," specifically designed for workstations that come equipped with the Intel W790 chipset. 

These motherboards are LGA 4677 type and support the Intel Xeon W-3400/W-2400 (known as "Sapphire Rapids"). They are suitable for complex 3D CAD, AI development, simulation, and 3D rendering. The "MW83-RP0" is a CEB form factor motherboard that can house the Intel Xeon W-3400 with up to 56 cores and up to 112 PCI Express lanes. It also features DDR5 RDIMM x 8 memory slots, which can support up to 4TB of memory, and PCI Express 5.0 (x16) x 5 and PCI Express 4.0 (x16) x 2 expansion slots. The storage is equipped with PCI Express 4.0 (x4) compatible M.2 slot x 2 and SlimSAS x 2 (SATA x 8). For network connectivity, it offers two 10 gigabit LANs powered by Intel X710-AT2 and one gigabit LAN for management by Realtek RTL8211FD.

The "MW53-HP0," on the other hand, is an ATX form factor motherboard that can accommodate the Intel Xeon W-2400 with up to 24 cores and up to 64 PCI Express lanes. It has DDR5 RDIMM x 8 memory slots, which can support up to 4TB of memory, and PCI Express 5.0 (x16) x 4 and PCI Express 3.0 (x16) x 1 expansion slots. The storage features PCI Express 4.0 (x4) compatible M.2 slot x 3 and SATA 3.0 x 8. It also provides two 2.5 gigabit LANs powered by Intel i226LM and one gigabit LAN for management by Realtek RTL8211FD.
