Where Compute Reigns
3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors – “Ice Lake”
GIGABYTE servers and Intel Xeon Scalable Processors deliver incredible 1P/2P performance from edge to data center with incredible gains in I/O throughput and workload demands that need high performing CPUs with large, yet optimized, memory configurations.
- Enhanced I/0: Support for PCIe 4.0 allows for double the throughput of PCIe 3.0 for fast and large data transfers. Also, 64 lanes per socket with up to 128 lanes in a 2P configuration for fast data transmission from CPU to GPU, accelerator or storage.
- CPU Performance Boost: Now up to 40 cores per socket with greatly improved IPC on Intel’s 10nm architecture while operating CPUs at 105-270W. Also, an additional UPI lane is added for up to 11.2GT/s for a low latency interconnect between CPUs.
- Next Gen Memory: Support for DDR4-3200MHz (1DPC or 2DPC) DIMM. 8 channel memory has been added with up to 16 DIMMs per socket delivering up to 4TB of system memory via usage of 256GB DDR4 DIMM. Additionally, 2/4/6/8-way interleaves for optimal configuration.
- Arrival of Intel Optane PMem 200 Series: Optimized for improvements in latency while increasing system memory up to 6TB per socket as a mix of PMem and DDR. The 200 Series also has support for memory mode to expand capacity and app direct mode to act as fast flash storage.
- Next Level Security: New instructions and architecture deliver a high level of cryptographic operations for data privacy and protection. Cryptographic accelerators speed up encryption protocols as well as improvements in software guard extensions and memory encryption are added.
- AI Acceleration: AI inference and training are enhanced with DL Boost Technology for greater business, operational, and security insights. Applications include HPC, AI, and Media & Graphics.

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.
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
Dual ROM Architecture
If the ROM that stores the BMC and BIOS fails to boot, the system will reboot with the backup BMC and/or BIOS replacing the primary. Once the primary BMC is updated, the ROM of the backup BMC will automatically update the backup through synchronization. For the BIOS, it can be updated based on user's choice of firmware version.
Hardware Security
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.
User Friendly
Certified Ready with Software Partners
Being a member of key software alliance partner programs enables GIGABYTE to together rapidly develop and validate joint solutions, enabling our customers to modernize their data centers and implement IT infrastructure and application services with speed, agility, and cost optimization. GIGABYTE servers have a compatibility across various ecosystems.
