Processor Support for Intel® Server Board D40AMP
The Intel® Server Board D40AMP includes two Socket-P4 LGA4189 processor sockets compatible with the 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor family.
Note | Previous-generation Intel® Xeon® Processors and Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor families and their supported processor heat sinks are not compatible with Intel® Server Boards described in this document. |
Processor Heat Sink Module (PHM) assembly and Processor Socket assembly
This generation of server system requires that the processor be pre-assembled to the heat sink before installation onto the Intel® Server Board.
The processor heat sink assembly is commonly referred to as the Processor Heat Sink Module or PHM. The assembly is installed onto the processor socket assembly (referred to as the loading mechanism) on the Intel Server Board.
Note | The following figure identifies the Processor Heat Sink Module (PHM) components, not the processor installation process. |
Note | For detailed processor assembly and installation instructions, see the Integration and Service Guide for Intel® Server System D40AMP Product Family. |
Processor heat sink
Intel® Server Board D40AMP family supports 1U height heat sinks as shown in the following figures.
As the following figures show, there are two types of 2U heat sinks and three types of 1U heat sinks:
- Front heat sink
- Back heat sink
The front heat sink type is used for CPU 0, and the back heat sink type is used for CPU 1. The exploded views in the figures show the difference. The back heat sink types have more heat venting fins.
Note | Heat sinks are not interchangeable. The descriptions above must be followed. |
The following figure shows a module with 1U front and back heat sinks installed. Only 1U standard front heat sink and 1U back heat sink are shown.
Processor Thermal Design Power (TDP) support
To allow optimal operation and long-term reliability of Intel® Server System D40AMP-based systems, the processor must remain within the defined minimum and maximum case temperature (TCASE) specifications.
When installed in an Intel® D40AMP module, the Intel® Server Board D40AMP family supports a maximum processor TDP up to and including 205 W. Depending on the system module and configuration, the Intel® Server System D40AMP may support a TDP up to and including 205 W. For details, see Appendix E of the Technical Product Specification for the Intel® Server System D40AMP Product Family.
