ASUS ESC8000AA-E13P brings a reflected server design of 8-GPU in the modern generation. With two AMD EPYC 9004/9005 processors and a lot of space for high -speed networking, it is a neat server. Of course, we have to enter it as theme this year in the high-end is multi-GPU systems.
Regular STH readers can remember that we have examined the Asus esc8000a-e11 There are two generations. When a few people visited Taipei earlier this year, we managed to take a system and have it used online. Here is a quick overview of one minute:

Now it’s time to get to the equipment.
Asus ESC8000AA-E13P Presentation of external equipment (before)
ESC800AA-E13P is a 4u nvidia mgx design. It is 800 mm or 31.5 ″ deep, it will therefore integrate in most racks, especially those who have the power capacity of a system like this.

At the front of the system, we can see one of the largest design elements. The bottom fans provide an air flow to the lower section with the CPU, the NICs and the memory, while the fans at the top are there to cool the GPUs and the storage.


At the front right, we can see the front rides. Here it means a mini displayport and two USB ports. There is also an q code display to check the publication codes. This is for the cold driveway service, which is generally preferred with hot GPU systems.


In the center, we get 8x 2.5 ″ berries for NVME storage.


These are hot conceptions as you would expect.


The NVME basket bottom is powered by four MCIO X8 connectors. Something else to notice is the way the backplant is held in place by locks without tools with blue tabs.


On the side of the LECT, we obtain status LEDs that hide something that needs behind them, as well as an extension slit.


The extension slit is a PCIe Gen5 x8 design that you can delete with a few tabs. Here, I remove the slit for the service.


Under the slit, and behind the status LEDs is a small neat board. This board has two M.2 locations which can accommodate SSD NVME M.2 22110 (110 mm) for start -up. This makes slots easier to serve than if they were on the motherboard.


We have only one reader installed, but you can see how it works.


At the bottom of the front, we obtain the fans that keep the Cool motherboard section.


These fans are all hot swapped at the front of the chassis.


Then arrive at the back of the system.
