by on20 October 2015


Featuring Skylake

ASRock Rack announced today the new series of workstation motherboards feature with the latest Intel Greenlow platform which features Skylake processor

.ASRock Rack has launched three models in miniITX, uATX and ATX as a push into the workstation market.

The outfit tells us that Greenlow offers significant improvements on memory speed, outstanding graphic and richer I/O performance. It supports maximized 8 SATA3 ports, DDR4 memory, and sufficient PCIe 3.0 and USB3.0 connections.

The new generation of CPU graphic core has an enhanced 3D performance, which ASRock tells us is ideal for workstation users.

The three workstation motherboards, with the C236M WS, C236WS and C236WSI numbers are designed for different form factors towers, short-depth chassis, and mini servers. These models are ideal for graphic workstations, NVR, rendering machine, professional NAS and multi-display applications.

C236M WS

C236MWS is a uATX workstation motherboard with up to 8 SATA3 ports and 4 PCIe3.0 slots. It is the perfect fit for the short-depth chassis, broadly applied in NVR market. It includes one SATA DOM, which is optional for M.2 to deploy the NVR system. Meanwhile, the rest of SATA ports boost the storage capacity.

Specification

  •  Micro ATX 9.6" x 9.6"
  • Single Socket LGA 1151 H4 Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v5 series
  • Supports Dual Channel DDR4 2133/1866 ECC DIMM, 4x DIMM
  • Supports 8x SATA3 by Intel C236
  • Supports 2 PCIe3.0 x16/x0 or x8/x8, 1x PCIe3.0 x4, 1x M.2 slot/PCIex1 Co Layout
  • Support 2 x GLAN by Intel i219LM and i210
  • 4 USB3.0, 1 HDMI, 1 DVI and 1 VGA

C236 WS


C236 WS is in ATX with 8 SATA3.0 ports and multiple PCIe slots. Through the upgrade to Greenlow platform, the storage capacity and memory speed are enhanced. It is ideal for high performance workstations, NVR and multi-display applications.
