DFI Unveils ICX610-C621A Motherboard for the Integration of AI Computing
DFI, the global leading provider of high-performance computing technology across multiple embedded industries, unveils a server-grade ATX motherboard, designed for Intel Ice Lake platform, powered by the 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, and equipped with ultra-high speed computing that can support up to 205 W. ICX610-C621A also comes with built-in Intel Speed Select Technology (Intel SST), which provides an excellent load balancing between CPUs and multiple accelerator cards to effectively distribute CPU resource, stabilize computation loads and maximize computing power. As a result, it improves the performance by 1.46 times compared to previous generation.
Featuring powerful performance, the offers three PCIe x16, two PCIe x8 slots and one M.2 Key and enables ultra-performance computing, AI workload and deep learning, specifically for high-end inspection equipment, such as AOI, CT, and MRI application. The ICX610 also supports ECC RDIMM up to 512 GB 3200 MHz, enhances high end performance for advanced inspection equipment and improves efficiency.Regarding the AI inference performance, with the boost from Deep Learning Boost (DL Boost) and Vector Neural Network Instructions (VNNI), the inference for production line and medical inspection equipment has been improved by 1.56 times compared to the previous generation, producing more accurate and reliable automated inspection result.
Through the upgraded 10 Gbps high-speed network, large high-resolution images can be quickly transmitted, accelerating the communication and cooperation between machines (M2M).The ICX610-C621A can help equipment manufacturers and users to further realize true Industry 4.0 automation.
Main applications:

Come back to consumer boards DFI, pretty please :(
Still have my Opteron 170 with an ASUS A8N-SLi SE (the Deluxes burned down)
But before I got the other parts for my build, the Intel C2D's came out & destroyed AMD's 939's. So I packed it away in the attic where it's sitting to this day, never used.
Should put it someday on eBay. Retro builders going to lick their fingers. :laugh:
