All New 45nm Multi-Core Ready Platform with High Power
	Efficiency

ASUS recently announces a new server board DSEB-D16/SAS, the next-generation 45nm Intel Xeon 5400/5300/52005100 processor ready platform with the green design of 90%+ power efficiency. Featured with leading-edge technology including FSB 1600MHz, FB-DIMM 800MHz, PCI-Express Gen2 x16 and IOAT2, the DSEB-D16/SAS is the most out-performance server board which is ideal for enterprise-class and computing demanding applications.

Green Design with 90%+ Power Efficiency
Optimizes the power efficiency up to 90%+, which enables power saving of around 1.68KWh per day and 613.2KWh per year, compared to general serverboards with 80% power efficiency (actual power saving also depends on loading in the system)
Being a significant reduction of the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), especially for the enterprises and IDC deploying with numerous server systems to provide 7x24 non-stop services base on above calculation

Longer Life and Higher Reliability for all Conductive Polymer Caps
All conductor polymer has better electronic conductivity and longer lifetime, without risk of capacitor explosion
All conductor polymer capacitors can reduce energy loss and has better thermal characteristics

High Memory Expandability with Exclusive MemCool Support
Provide up to 64GB memory capacity for high computing capability
The 16 slots are divided into two zones (8-DIMM per zone) to provide better airflow compared with those in a row
The optional ASUS Patented MemCool Kit maximizes Fully-buffered DIMM performance by eliminating the potential risk of system memory throttling from over-temperature, and minimizes the system integration effort of SI for thermal & acoustic solution

PCI-E Gen2 x16 for High Speed Connection
Provides two PCI-E Gen2 x16 slots (for high speed Infiniband connections or professional graphic cards) with each support up to 8GB/s bandwidth, which doubles that of PCI-E (1.0)
One PCI-E x8 expansion slot and one PCI-X interface for advanced hardware RAID upgrade

200% Improved Data Transfers
Built in Quad-LAN with a teaming technology that integrates four high-speed Gigabit LAN ports into a single one, provides almost four times the transferring bandwidth
Provide fail-over function, if one or more port fail, the networking connection will not be affected immediately
The four ports can be used in individual sub-nets to provide secure data and smooth transfers

IxChariot Benchmark based on 100% Sequential Write/Send (64K Data Transfer Buffer Size)

Built-in SAS with Complete RAID Upgrade
Provide built-in SAS with RAID 0, 1, 1E support
Support hardware RAID 5 support through the dedicate ZCR expansion slot, without sacrificing any PCI-E slots
