GIGABYTE Intros C246-WU4 Motherboard for Xeon E-Series and Core Processors | TechPowerUp

techpowerup.com

The Gigabyte C246-WU4 motherboard stands out with robust support for Xeon E-series and Core processors, making it a solid choice for workstation builds. With impressive features like dual NICs, an abundance of SATA ports, and good memory capacity, it caters well to professional needs. However, the lack of NVIDIA SLI support and some limitations on older processor compatibility might frustrate enthusiasts looking for versatile gaming options. At around $350, it’s a strong contender, but potential buyers should weigh its workstation focus against gaming flexibility.
