1.2  Server Board Use Disclaimer 

Intel

 Server Systems support add-in peripherals and contain a number of high-density VLSI 

and power delivery components that need adequate airflow to cool. Intel ensures through its 
own chassis development and testing that when Intel server building blocks are used together, 
the fully integrated system will meet the intended thermal requirements of supported 
components. It is the responsibility of the system integrator who chooses not to use Intel 
developed server building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating parameters to 
determine the amount of air flow required for their specific application and environmental 
conditions. Intel Corporation cannot be held responsible if components fail or the server system 
does not operate correctly when used outside any of their published operating or non-operating 
limits.
