Blackbird™ is an adaptation of Raptor Computing Systems' next-generation POWER9 platform to the μATX (microATX) form factor. Focusing on the desktop use case, it is a single socket PowerNV system.

Mainboard
Specifications
| Mainboard Part # | Form Factor | CPU Type | Networking | Storage Controller |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C1P9S01 | MicroATX | POWER9 Sforza | 3x GbE (Broadcom BCM5719) | 4x SATA |
- MicroATX form factor
- One LGA 2601 socket accepting a POWER9 Sforza CPU with TDP ≤ 160 W
- Two DDR4 1600/1866/2133/2400/2666 ECC registered RAM slots, dual-channel, supporting up to 256GB main memory
- Three Gigabit Ethernet ports provided by a Broadcom BCM5719 chip
- Four SATA ports provided by a firmware-free Marvell 88SE9235 SATA chip
- 5.1 audio supporting analog and S/PDIF outputs
- HDMI output via BMC (2D framebuffer), using a firmware-free IT66121FN PHY chip
- Four USB 3.0 ports (2x rear, 2x on header for front panel) via firmware-free TUSB7340 XHCI chip
- One additional internal USB 2.0 Type-A port
- One x16 PCIe Gen4 slot (CAPI2-capable)
- One x8 PCIe Gen4 slot
- AST2500 BMC with OpenBMC
- One Lattice ICE40HX1K-VQ100 FPGA controller
Notes
- 4-core and 8-core CPUs function normally.
- Other CPUs (CPUs with a TDP greater than 160W) may operate without WoF due to power regulator limitations.
- Of the three Ethernet ports on the back panel, the one above the USB ports is the one that is shared with the BMC.
Energy consumption
NOTE: numbers are approximate and may vary. System power measured at wall with standard instruments. CPU power reported by OCC.
| Component | Design Power | Power Use (Idle) | Power Use (Full Load) | Additional Information | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4-core CPU (02CY297): DD2.2, 2.15/3.8 GHz | 90W | 54W | 94W | Measured at the wall. PSU: be quiet! Straight Power 11 450W 80+ Gold | MPC7500 |
| 8-core CPU (02CY089): DD2.2, 3.45/3.8 GHz | 160W | 28-30W | 114W | Load generated via stress --cpu 32. CPU frequency scheduler: ondemand. Data reported by lm_sensors.
