Why Ampere Altra based Server?
Performance Boost
80 cores and 128 PCIe lanes demand data to be processed quickly and more jobs at the same time.
Architecture Efficiency
Designed for Cloud and Edge (cloud ecosystem native platform) and provides a high number of computing cores, faster throughput, and low power consumption.
Aggregate Powerhouse
Provides a management tool for cloud and edge to simplify management and improve efficiency.
Superhighway of Data
Utilizing the latest in PCIe 4.0 and 128 PCIe lanes allows faster throughput in GPUs, storage and networking.
Green Savings
Best in class performance/watt, Ampere Altra continues to increase value while driving down TCO.
Cooperation
GIGABYTE has developed with Arm systems for almost 10 years. Servers will be ready with fast TTM and product offerings.

High Performance
Supports NVIDIA HGX A100 8-GPU
Massive datasets, exploding model sizes, and complex simulations require multiple GPUs with extremely fast interconnections. NVIDIA HGX A100 combines NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPUs with high-speed interconnects to form the world’s most powerful servers. With A100 80GB GPUs, a single HGX A100 has up to 1.3 terabytes (TB) of GPU memory and over 2 terabytes per second (TB/s) of memory bandwidth, delivering unprecedented acceleration.
Hardware Security
Hardware-level Root of Trust (RoT)
Protection is built in the silicon to ensure systems will not be vulnerable to security attacks or cyber threats. This ROT helps isolate the system as the boot process starts to verify cryptographic operations and ensures the firmware is not compromised by malware.
Optional TPM 2.0 Module
For hardware-based authentication, the passwords, encryption keys, and digital certificates are stored in a TPM module to prevent unwanted users from gaining access to your data. GIGABYTE TPM modules come in either a Serial Peripheral Interface or Low Pin Count bus.
Power Efficiency
Automatic Fan Speed Control
GIGABYTE servers are enabled with Automatic Fan Speed Control to achieve the best cooling and power efficiency. Individual fan speeds will be automatically adjusted according to temperature sensors strategically placed in the servers.
High Availability
Smart Ride Through (SmaRT)
To prevent server downtime and data loss as a result of loss of AC power, GIGABYTE implements SmaRT in all our server platforms. When such an event occurs, the system will throttle while maintaining availability and reducing power load. Capacitors within the power supply can supply power for 10-20ms, which is enough time to transition to a backup power source for continued operation.
Smart Crises Management and Protection (SCMP)
SCMP is a GIGABYTE patented feature which is deployed in servers with non-fully redundant PSU design. With SCMP, in the event of faulty PSU or overheated system, the system will force the CPU into an ultra-low power mode that reduces the power load, which prevents the system from unexpected shutdown and avoids component damage or data loss.
User Friendly
Tool-less Drive Bays Design
Clipping mechanism secures the drive in place. Install or replace a new drive in seconds.
