ASUS RS720A-E13-RS8G-3.2KW10G barebone server, dual EPYC 9005, 24 DDR5, 8 NVMe, 3200W
Dual AMD EPYC 9005 barebones server with 24 DDR5 slots, 8 hot-swap NVMe bays and 3200W redundant power
- Dual EPYC 9005 processors deliver 192 cores for heavy workloads
- 24 DDR5 RDIMM slots support 6000MHz memory up to 3TB capacity
- Eight hot-swap tri-mode bays accept NVMe, SATA and SAS drives
- Ten PCIe 5.0 slots enable three dual-slot GPUs plus dual OCP 3.0
- Dual 3200W 80PLUS Titanium supplies provide 1+1 redundant power
Dual-socket EPYC 9005 server for GPU workloads
This 2U rackmount barebones system accepts two AMD EPYC 9005 processors, each rated up to 400 W TDP and 192 cores. Twenty-four DDR5 ECC RDIMM slots support up to 6000 MHz memory speed and a total of 3 TB capacity. Eight hot-swap tri-mode bays handle NVMe, SATA and SAS drives, while ten PCIe 5.0 slots and two OCP 3.0 mezzanine positions provide high-speed expansion for accelerators and networking.
Upgrade from single-socket or PCIe 4.0 platforms
Moving to dual EPYC 9005 sockets doubles the core count and memory channels available to a single node. The ten PCIe 5.0 lanes deliver twice the per-lane bandwidth of the previous generation, which matters when feeding three dual-slot GPUs or saturating dual 10 GbE ports. The jump is worth it when workloads scale beyond one socket's memory capacity or when GPU-to-GPU traffic needs full Gen5 links without bifurcation bottlenecks.
Sustained load with EVAC cooling and redundant
ASUS fits 1U enhanced-volume air-cooling heatsinks sized for 400 W CPUs and three 400 W GPUs, keeping thermals stable during continuous training or inference runs. Dual 3200 W 80PLUS Titanium supplies share the load in 1+1 redundancy, so a single unit failure does not throttle performance. The tool-less top cover and fan bar simplify mid-deployment maintenance without shutting down the rack.

Questions about this item
Will the 2U chassis fit in a standard 19-inch rack with enough depth for the 3200W power supplies?
The server uses a 2U rackmount form factor designed for standard 19-inch cabinets; the redundant 3200W 80PLUS Titanium PSUs are housed internally, so verify your rack depth accommodates the full chassis length.
How are the dual EPYC 9005 processors and 24 DDR5 modules installed, and what step is commonly missed?
Install both CPUs into the SP5 sockets first, then populate all 24 DDR5 RDIMM slots evenly across the memory channels; the step often missed is enabling the 6000MHz speed in the BIOS after installation.
When will the hot-swap NVMe drives or the EVAC cooling fans need replacement?
The eight hot-swap tri-mode bays allow NVMe, SATA or SAS drives to be replaced without downtime; the EVAC heatsink fans are part of the tool-less fan bar and can be swapped individually when bearing noise or airflow drops.
