GIGABYTE G294-Z22-AAP2 barebone server AMD EPYC 9004/9005 12 DDR5 8 GPU
2U barebone server supporting one AMD EPYC 9004 or 9005 CPU, 12 DDR5 DIMM slots and up to eight dual-slot Gen5 GPUs
- Supports 8 dual-slot Gen5 GPUs for massive parallel compute
- 12-channel DDR5 with 12 DIMM slots feeds memory-hungry workloads
- Single AMD EPYC 9005/9004 processor simplifies licensing and power
- 10 Gb/s dual LAN via Broadcom 57416 moves datasets fast
- 4 hot-swap 2.5" NVMe/SATA/SAS-4 plus 4 SATA/SAS-4 bays for flexible storage
Dense GPU compute platform
This 2U barebones server supports up to eight dual-slot PCIe Gen5 GPUs with integrated PCIe switches for high-throughput workloads. A single AMD EPYC 9004 or 9005 series processor drives twelve DDR5 RDIMM channels across twelve DIMM slots. Dual ROM architecture and dual 10 Gb/s LAN ports via Broadcom BCM57416 complete the core infrastructure.
AI training clusters and HPC nodes
Suited for teams building dense GPU farms for large-model training or simulation where eight accelerators must share one CPU complex. Not suited for workloads needing multi-socket CPU scaling, more than twelve memory channels, or storage density beyond eight 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.
Eight dual-slot Gen5 GPU capacity
The defining limit is the eight dual-slot PCIe Gen5 GPU slots enabled by on-board PCIe switches. If the workload requires more than eight accelerators or a different GPU form factor, this chassis cannot accommodate it.

Questions about this item
Which AMD EPYC processor generations are compatible with the G294-Z22-AAP2?
The server supports a single AMD EPYC 9004 or 9005 series processor in its SP5 socket.
Can I use the four 2.5-inch SATA/SAS-4 bays at the same time as the four Gen5 NVMe/SATA/SAS-4 bays?
Yes, the chassis provides eight total hot-swap bays — four Gen5 NVMe/SATA/SAS-4 plus four SATA/SAS-4 — all usable simultaneously.
How do I verify the dual ROM architecture is active after first boot?
Enter the BIOS setup and confirm both main and backup firmware versions are displayed and selectable for fail-over protection.
