The so-called MoTD solution is simply to integrate the processor originally designed for notebook computers directly into the desktop motherboard. While taking into account power consumption and performance, it provides new hardware options for NAS, small workstations and lightweight desktop platforms.

Among them, the motherboard model SK-PTLNAS is designed with ATX specifications and is equipped with Intel Core Ultra Series 3 “Panther Lake” processor. According to on-site information, this series can support up to Intel Core Ultra X9 388H processor, and the prototype on display is equipped with Core Ultra 7 356H. The power consumption of the entire platform is maintained at the 65W level, and a single 8Pin power supply design is adopted.
In terms of hardware configuration, this motherboard has a 6+4 phase power supply design, is equipped with dual DDR5 SO-DIMM slots, supports up to 128GB of memory, and provides PCIe 5.0 x16 expansion interface and up to 5 M.2 solid-state drive interfaces. In addition, it is equipped with 10GbE and 2.5GbE dual network ports, multiple sets of high-speed USB interfaces and Mini SAS expansion capabilities, which is more suitable for high-performance storage and network application scenarios.
At the same time, Maxxuan also demonstrated an entry-level MoTD motherboard based on Intel Core Series 3 “Wildcat Lake” platform. This product is designed with mATX specifications and supports a single DDR5 memory slot, a PCIe 4.0 M.2 interface and a SATA storage interface. It supports up to 28W power consumption processors and is more suitable for low-power office and lightweight application scenarios.

In addition to motherboard products, Mingxuan also brought two new Intel Arc Pro B65 32GB professional graphics cards. These include a turbo fan version and a fanless passive cooling version. Both products adopt a single-slot design and are equipped with a 16Pin power supply interface. The power consumption of the entire card reaches 200W.
