## Long description

The Asrock E3C252D4U Intel C252 LGA 1200 micro ATX motherboard is designed for compact systems that require server-grade stability with workstation capabilities. Based on the Intel C252 chipset and compatible with Intel® Xeon® processors using the LGA 1200 socket, this Micro ATX board supports up to 32 GB of DDR4-SDRAM across four DIMM slots. It includes M.2 and SATA storage interfaces and integrated management and graphics features suitable for business, development, and light server tasks.
Advantages
This motherboard combines a micro ATX footprint with an Intel C252 chipset to provide reliable platform features and expandability in constrained chassis. Support for Intel® Xeon® processors and four DDR4 memory slots allows stable operation under multithreaded workloads. Integrated ASPEED AST2500 graphics and an Intel I210 Gigabit Ethernet controller provide essential remote-management and network connectivity without additional cards. Onboard M.2 and SATA interfaces plus RAID 0/1/5/10 support enable flexible storage configurations and data redundancy options.
Suitable for
Small form-factor workstations and office PCs that require server-class processor support
Entry-level servers and NAS systems with RAID storage needs
Development and testing rigs that need stable Xeon platform compatibility
Networked applications requiring reliable Gigabit Ethernet and remote management
