GIGABYTE

GIGABYTE XL44-SX0-AAS2 barebone server 32 DIMM 8 GPU

SKU CH-7BNV-PQDP3 MPN XL44-SX0-AAS2

4U dual-processor barebone with 32 DDR5 DIMM slots, eight full-height Gen5 GPU slots and four 2.5" NVMe bays

  • Supports up to 8 dual-slot Gen5 GPUs for massive parallel compute
  • Dual Xeon 6700/6500 processors deliver high core-count performance
  • 32 DDR5 DIMM slots enable huge memory capacity
  • 4 x 2.5" NVMe hot-swap bays provide fast storage flexibility
  • 2 x 10Gb/s LAN ports via Intel X710-AT2 ensure rapid networking

Dual-socket Xeon 6 platform for GPU-dense workloads

The XL44-SX0-AAS2 is a 4U barebones server that accepts two Intel Xeon 6700 or 6500 series processors. Thirty-two DDR5 RDIMM or MRDIMM slots provide high memory capacity for data-intensive applications. Eight full-height, full-length PCIe Gen5 x16 slots support up to eight dual-slot Gen5 GPUs for parallel compute tasks.

Integrated networking and fast local storage

Two 10Gb/s LAN ports driven by an Intel X710-AT2 controller deliver high-throughput connectivity out of the box. Four hot-swap 2.5-inch Gen5 NVMe bays allow rapid storage changes without downtime. Two M.2 slots with PCIe Gen4 x2 interfaces add boot or cache devices without consuming drive bays.

Rack-mount chassis built for expansion

The 4U form factor fits standard server racks and accommodates the eight GPU slots plus one additional FHFL PCIe Gen5 x16 slot for ancillary cards. Hot-swap drive bays and front-access networking simplify daily maintenance. Builders needing more than eight GPUs or a different processor family should evaluate alternative platforms.

Questions about this item

Will the 32 DDR5 DIMM slots need any special maintenance or replacement schedule?

The 32 DDR5 RDIMM or MRDIMM slots are standard server memory sockets and do not require a special maintenance schedule beyond normal dust prevention and thermal monitoring.

Which limit appears first when the eight dual-slot Gen5 GPUs run sustained workloads?

The 4U chassis houses 8 FHFL PCIe Gen5 x16 GPU slots; sustained full-load operation will hit thermal and power-delivery limits before the PCIe Gen5 x16 bandwidth ceiling is reached.

How much noise and heat should I expect from the system running all day with 8 GPUs?

With dual Xeon 6700/6500-series CPUs and up to 8 dual-slot Gen5 GPUs, the 4U barebone will generate significant heat and fan noise under continuous load; adequate rack airflow is essential.
