ASUS Sets 246 World Records for Fastest 1P and 2P Server Performance
Complete lineup of record-breaking, configurable servers is designed for seamless scalability and intensive computing workloads
TAIPEI, Taiwan, Aug 13, 2019 — ASUS, a leading server systems, server motherboards, workstation and workstation motherboards provider, today announced that a total of 246 world records have been set by its rack servers, including GPGPU (general-purpose computing on graphics processing units) servers and multi-node servers. As recorded by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) for benchmarks measuring computing-intensive performance, ASUS dual-processor (2P) servers ESC8000 G4 and RS720Q-E9 achieved the highest scores for compute-intensive applications, and the ASUS single-processor (1P) RS300-E10 server set 70 new best-performance records. Each of the new, record-breaking configurable ASUS servers are designed to be highly scalable and to work seamlessly for infrastructure visualization, data analysis, AI training workloads or any general computing applications.
ASUS GPGPU server ESC8000 G4 achieves the
world’s best performance
ESC8000
G4 is a 4U GPGPU series 2P server with support for up to eight double-deck
graphics cards for AI training, high-performance computing (HPC), content
creation, rendering, gaming, VR and AR, and professional visualization
applications. Its patented adaptable topology design allows it to automatically
switch to single- or dual-root topologies through ASMB9-iKVM, making it ideal
for AI learning or High Performance Computing environments. ESC8000 G4 holds 64
world records for compute-intensive applications across SPEC CPU® 2017
benchmark packages SPECint 2017 rate and SPECfp 2017.
RS720Q-E9,
a 2U4N high-density 2P server, set a record of 97 benchmarks for
compute-intensive applications across SPEC CPU® 2017 benchmarks packages SPECint
2017 rate and SPECfp 2017. RS720Q-E9 is designed for processing-intensive environments
such as data center and private cloud applications. It supports two to eight
processors (28 cores per processor) and 48 DIMMs for up to 6 TB of memory.
All ASUS servers
that achieve the world-record 2P performance results are based on 1st and 2nd
Generation Intel® Xeon® scalable processors.
