Geared for Advanced Graphic CreationThe GA-6PXSV2 is a higher end version of the GA-6PXSV1 with the support of 2-way GPUs for advanced CAD/CAE applications. Also, it boasts additional features oriented toward virtualized workstation environments, such as higher end LAN controller solution, and a remote board control chipset with comprehensive management features.
The 6PXSV Series being the only ATX boards supporting the Intel Xeon E5-1600 V2 & E5-2600 V2 processors, ECC memory and boasting the C604 chipset, they will be the perfect solution for professional users and prosumers wishing to build compact yet highly productive workstations that will boost their workflow. -
Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2600 V2 Product FamilyDeployable through a simple BIOS update, the support of Intel Xeon processors E5-1600 V2 & 2600 V2 product families delivers the benefits of the 22nm tri-gate process technology to the high end server industry. Those benefits include, among others, higher frequencies, higher core counts (up to 12 cores / 24 threads) and larger last-level caches, but especially a much more varied mix of core/frequencies with notably the introduction of a new dual socket workstation segment. This new die shrink also allows for overall energy efficiency increase, with up to 30% average decrease in idle power consumption.
Finally, virtualization applications will benefit from increased performance thanks to the Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller (APIC) technology, and more security features are included in the mix as well, such as the Intel® Platform Protection Technology with OS Guard, and Intel® Data Protection Technology with Secure Key. -
Faster Memory, With GIGABYTE OnlyAlways eager to go beyond the industry standards, GIGABYTE’s engineering has enabled through its capabilities in design, PCB layout and BIOS fine-tuning the support of 1866 MHz memory frequency running at higher DIMM population (8 DIMMs per socket) where Intel’s standard and the rest of the market’s products will typically operate memory speed downgrade and support 1866 MHz at lower DIMM population only (4 DIMMs per socket). GIGABYTE therefore offers at launch on its 2011 socket based products this unique feature which will benefit to high density and memory intensive applications, such as high frequency trading, telecommunication networks, mobile data transfers, and so on.

2-Way Graphics

Digital Power ControlThe GA-6PXSV2 includes GIGABYTE’s digital PWM controllers, guaranteeing a dynamic power supply to the processor and memory with an ultra-fast response time. Built with advanced calibration tools, they allow to get the purest and most efficient electrical supply to date. When the CPU workload varies in function of the applications running, the Intel Turbo Boost Technology will do a dynamic overclock of the CPU cores. This is where the digital PWMs outshine the previous analog solutions. This way the CPU operations are much more stable, and the overall reliability of the system is greatly improved.
