Silver 2U rack server chassis with dense GPU slot array and drive bays

GIGABYTE

GIGABYTE G293-Z43-AAP1 barebone server 16 GPU 24 DIMM

SKU CH-W997-C9A61 MPN G293-Z43-AAP1

A 2U barebone server supporting dual EPYC 9004 processors, 24 DDR5 DIMM slots and up to 16 Gen5 GPUs

  • Dual AMD EPYC 9004 processors for HPC performance
  • 16 single-slot PCIe Gen5 GPUs with PCIe switches
  • 24 DDR5 RDIMM slots across 12 memory channels
  • 4 NVMe/SATA/SAS plus 4 SATA/SAS 2.5-inch hot-swap bays
  • Dual 10Gb/s LAN via Broadcom BCM57416 controller

Dual AMD EPYC 9004 server barebones

The GIGABYTE G293-Z43-AAP1 is a 2U dual-processor barebones platform built for high-performance computing and AI workloads. It accepts two AMD EPYC 9004 series CPUs and provides sixteen full-height full-length PCIe Gen5 x16 slots for single-slot GPUs. The system targets organisations deploying dense GPU clusters for training or inference.

24 DDR5 channels and mixed storage bays

Twelve-channel DDR5 RDIMM architecture populates twenty-four DIMM slots for high memory bandwidth. Storage combines four 2.5-inch bays supporting Gen5 NVMe, SATA and SAS with four additional 2.5-inch SATA/SAS hot-swap bays. Builders needing more than twenty-four DIMM positions or front-access NVMe beyond four drives must look elsewhere.

Sixteen PCIe Gen5 GPU slots with switches

The defining specification is sixteen FHFL PCIe Gen5 x16 slots driven through PCIe switches, enabling sixteen single-slot Gen5 GPUs in a 2U chassis. Dual 10GbE LAN via Broadcom BCM57416 and dual ROM architecture complete the platform. Customers requiring double-slot GPU density or single-root-complex topology cannot use this configuration.

Questions about this item

Will the 16 PCIe Gen5 x16 GPU slots work with older PCIe Gen4 or Gen3 graphics cards I already own?

The 16 full-height, full-length slots are PCIe Gen5 x16 electrically; they are backward-compatible with PCIe Gen4 and Gen3 cards, though each GPU will run at its own generation's speed.

How can I verify both AMD EPYC 9004 processors and all 24 DDR5 RDIMM slots are detected after assembly?

The dual ROM architecture lets you enter the BIOS/UEFI on first boot where the mainboard posts each CPU and shows all 24 DIMM slots populated with speed and ECC status.

Which drives and rails ship with the G293-Z43-AAP1 and what must I source separately?

The barebone includes the 2U chassis, motherboard with dual CPU sockets, 16 GPU PCIe switches, four 2.5" Gen5 NVMe/SATA/SAS bays, four 2.5" SATA/SAS bays, and dual 10GbE LAN; you must add two EPYC 9004 CPUs, DDR5 RDIMMs, GPUs, storage drives, and power supplies.
