Gigabyte serveur HPC/AI

Data centers and research labs running AI training, HPC simulations, or large-scale virtualization need a server that can handle massive parallel workloads without compromise. The GIGABYTE G493-ZB4-AAP1 is a 4U rackmount platform built for exactly that: dual AMD EPYC 7003/7002 processors, support for up to eight dual-slot PCIe Gen4 GPUs, and a flexible storage subsystem that balances NVMe speed with SATA/SAS capacity. Whether you're deploying a GPU cluster for deep learning or consolidating high-performance VMs, this server delivers the headroom you need.

Why choose it

This server is engineered for maximum GPU density and thermal efficiency. With eight PCIe Gen4 x16 slots, it can accommodate the most demanding accelerators, while the 4U chassis provides ample airflow for sustained high-load operation. The redundant 3000W Platinum power supplies ensure uptime even under full load, and the AST2500 BMC gives you comprehensive remote management capabilities. The storage configuration—eight NVMe bays for ultra-fast data access and four SATA/SAS bays for bulk storage—offers a balanced approach to performance and capacity.

Ideal use cases

• AI and deep learning training clusters
• High-performance computing (HPC) simulations
• GPU-accelerated virtualization and VDI
• Big data analytics and in-memory databases
• Private cloud infrastructure

Good to know

The G493-ZB4-AAP1 supports a wide range of enterprise operating systems, making it easy to integrate into existing environments. Its OCP 3.0 slot allows for additional network expansion, such as 25GbE or 100GbE adapters. With hot-swap fans and redundant power supplies, maintenance can be performed without downtime. The 4U form factor fits standard 19-inch racks and is ideal for data centers with high-density compute requirements.
