Definition: server motherboard


A motherboard designed for server use generally has two or more CPU sockets typically for Xeon CPUs. Server motherboards also use error-correcting RAM (see ECC) and more PCI Express slots than a desktop computer motherboard. A server motherboard does not require integrated graphics or a sound circuit as server computers are rack mounted without monitors. See scalable processor, integrated graphics, motherboard and PCI Express.
