When we want to see motherboards with relatively strange features we can always turn our attention to AsRocka company that has launched motherboards as curious as a Mini-ITX model with LGA 3647 socket, but in the case of today we find the ASRock Rack W790D8UD-1L1N2T/BCM, an LGA 4677 socket motherboard that uses a Deep Micro ATX format to house processors with up to 56 cores.
As its name indicates, Deep Micro ATX is a longer variant of Micro ATX that allows housing, in this case, the power components of the processor just in front of it, all of this with an almost square PCB of 264 x 266 millimeters that will allow mounting extremely powerful servers with a small footprint.
Among its specifications, we have a maximum capacity 2TB of RAM divided into 8 memory modules, four PCI Express 4.0 x16 slots, two OCuLink connectors for SSD, two 10GbE ports and one M.2 slot. 2280.
Undoubtedly, it is a motherboard that will probably be sold in low volume, since for examplethis motherboard format is not a format that is widely supported by case manufacturers.
