Intel introduced three new Xeon processor families last week. The Xeon E3-1200 v2 family is based on the Ivy Bridge architecture, while the Sandy Bridge based Xeon E5-2400 and E5-4600 families encompass processors for two and four socket systems respectively. Supermicro has duly updated their X9 family of motherboards and systems to support the new processors. Without further digression, let us take a look at their new products.

Ivy Bridge Xeon Platforms

The updates for the Ivy Bridge Xeons has been quite straightforward for Supermicro. In fact, the announcements actually link to boards / systems based on the Sandy Bridge Xeons (E3-1200), along with a BIOS update for PCI-E 3.0 support.
