ASRock Rack Inc., a leading innovative server company, is announcing its 6U8X-EGS2 series at booth 1617 during the NVIDIA GTC global AI conference in San Jose, USA. The 6U8X-EGS2 NVIDIA H100 and 6U8X-EGS2 NVIDIA H200 are ASRock Rack's most powerful AI training systems, capable of accommodating NVIDIA HGX H200 8-GPUs. The 6U rack mounts are able of providing airflow for the highest CPU and GPU performance. In addition to the eight-way configuration, the 6U8X-EGS2 series offers 12 PCIe Gen 5 NVMe drive bays and multiple PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, as well as a 4+4 PSU for full redundancy.

ASRock Rack is also developing servers that support the new NVIDIA HGX B200 8-GPU to handle the most demanding generative AI applications, accelerate large language models, and cater to data analytics and high-performance computing workloads. "At GTC, NVIDIA announced its new NVIDIA Blackwell platform, and we are glad to contribute to the new era of computing by providing a wide range of server hardware products that will support it," said Hunter Chen, Vice President at ASRock Rack. "Our products provide organizations with the foundation to transform their businesses and leverage the advancements of accelerated computing."

ASRock Rack is a subsidiary of ASRock that deals with servers, workstations, and other data-center hardware, and comes with the enormous brand trust not just of ASRock, but also the firm hand of parent company and OEM giant Pegatron. At the 2024 Mobile World Congress, ASRock Rack introduced several new server innovations relevant to the AI Edge, and 5G cellular carrier industries. A star attraction here is the new ASRock Rack MECAI-GH200, claimed to be the world's smallest server powered by the NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper Superchip.

The ASRock Rack MECAI-GH200 executes one of NVIDIA's original design goals behind the Grace Hopper Superchip—AI deployments in an edge environment. The GH200 module combines an NVIDIA Grace CPU with a Hopper AI GPU, and a performance-optimized NVLink interconnect between them. The CPU features 72 Arm Neoverse V2 cores, and 480 GB of LPDDR5X memory; while the Hopper GPU has 132 SM with 528 Tensor cores, and 96 GB of HBM3 memory across a 6144-bit memory interface. Given that the newer HBM3e version of the GH200 won't come out before Q2-2024, this has to be the version with HBM3. What makes the MECAI-GH200 the world's smallest server with the GH200 has to be its compact 2U form-factor—competing solutions tend to be 3U or larger.

ASRock Rack Inc., the leading innovative server company, today is set to showcase a comprehensive range of servers for diverse AI workloads catering to scenarios from the edge, on-premises, and to the cloud at booth #1737 at SC 23 held at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, USA. The event is from November 13th to 16th, and ASRock Rack will feature the following significant highlights:

At SC 23, ASRock Rack will demonstrate the NVIDIA-Qualified 2U4G-GENOA/M3 and 4U8G series GPU server solutions along with the NVIDIA H100 PCIe. The ASRock Rack 4U8G and 4U10G series GPU servers are able to accommodate eight to ten 400 W dual-slot GPU cards and 24 hot-swappable 2.5" drives, designed to deliver exceptional performance for demanding AI workloads deployed in the cloud environment. The 2U4G-GENOA/M3, tailored for lighter workloads, is powered by a single AMD EPYC 9004 series processor and is able to support four 400 W dual-slot GPUs while having additional PCIe and OCP NIC 3.0 slots for expansions.
