Wonderful! Thanks for confirmation. I was hoping that's the anwer, but I wasn't sure if this spec of the mainboard is *just* for the remote management. ]]> Fri, 03 Mar 2023 00:41:49 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=25557&PID=103774&title=asrock-e3c226d2i-with-xeon-cpu-without-gpu#103774 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=25557&PID=103773&title=asrock-e3c226d2i-with-xeon-cpu-without-gpu#103773 Author: eccential

BMC (ASPEED) includes a GPU, because, well, that's how you're able to manage the system remotely (or locally for that matter).

Hello!

I use the ASRock E3C226D2I currently with an Intel i3 CPU and it works fine.

https://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=E3C226D2I#Specifications

For performance reasons, I'd like to upgrade the system with a Xeon CPU instead.

My system has no dedicated GPU installed. Xeon CPUs don't have integrated GPUs. Does the mainboard has some basic GPU onboard to enable basic server use? I just need console. I couldn't tell from the specs.

Can anybody give some insight?

Thanks,
