Full Support for PCIe 4.0 Technology
Double the bandwidth for faster connections AMD EPYC Rome is the world’s first mainstream data center CPU to support PCIe Gen 4.0, with a bandwidth of 64GB/s, twice that of PCIe Gen 3.0. This doubles the bandwidth available from the CPU to peripheral devices such as graphics cards, storage devices and high speed network cards. GIGABYTE’s AMD EPYC 7002 Series server platforms are ready to be used with a new generation of PCIe Gen 4.0 devices.
Featuring Higher Memory Speed
Supports speeds up to 3200Mhz AMD EPYC’s Rome 7002 Series processors feature faster 8 channel DDR4 memory lanes, supporting RDIMM or LRDIMM memory modules with a speed of up to 3200MHz (1 DIMM per channel).
Utilise Ultra-Fast NVMe and Obtain More Storage
Now featuring higher capacity storage optionsGIGABYTE’s AMD EPYC 7002 Series server platforms feature more M.2 drive capacity for ultra-fast NVMe storage – both onboard M.2 slots and extra capacity via optional riser cards.
Max TDP Support for Server Platforms
support the full list of AMD EPYC Rome GIGABYTE’s AMD EPYC server platforms come ready to support the full list of AMD EPYC Rome 7002 Series processors: up to 225W (standard TDP) / 240W (cTDP)
Data Security TPM 2.0 Module
designed to support Trusted Platform Modules GIGABYTE’s AMD EPYC Server is designed to support Trusted Platform Modules (TPM - discrete cryptographic on-board processors).
Design Features for Easy Maintenance
Tool-less Rail KitsRail kits attach to the side of the server chassis via clipping mechanism.
Tool-less 2.5” & 3.5” Drive BaysClipping mechanism secures the drive in place. Install or replace a new drive in seconds.
GIGABYTE’s AMD EPYC 7002 Series server platforms contain many tool less design features for easy installation, maintenance and removal – never worry about forgetting your toolbox or losing a screw again.
GIGABYTE Server Management
easy to use browser-based GUI GSM Server, a software program with an easy to use browser-based GUI to enable global remote monitoring and management of multiple GIGABYTE servers via each server node’s BMC.
global remote monitoring and management GSM CLI, a command-line interface program to enable global remote monitoring and management of multiple GIGABYTE servers via each server node’s BMC.
retrieves additional node information GSM Agent*, a software program installed locally on each GIGABYTE server node that retrieves additional node information (CPU/Mem/HDD/PCI/…) from the OS and passes it to the BMC. This information can then be utilized by GSM Server or GSM CLI. *GSM Agent is currently compatible with Avocent MergePoint IPMI 2.0 BMC firmware, but not yet compatible with Megarac SP-X BMC firmware.
remote server management mobile APP GSM Mobile, a remote server management mobile APP, available for both Android and iOS.
manage and monitor GIGABYTE server nodes GSM Plugin, a plugin that allows the user to manage and monitor GIGABYTE server nodes within VMware’s vCenter.
Efficient, Reliable Power Supply
guarantee high conversion efficiency GIGABYTE’s AMD EPYC 7002 Series server are designed to guarantee high conversion efficiency regardless of load. Redundant 80 Plus ‘Titanium’ or ‘Platinum’ PSUs, combined with GIGABYTE’s precision engineering, translates to super efficient power usage which maximizes the system’s power : performance ratio and reduces OPEX for the user.
GIGABYTE BMC Interface
allows users to update the BIOS of motherboards
GIGABYTE has developed this integrated function (requiring no additional software) that allows users to update the BIOS of motherboards through the BMC controller:
•No need to install core components such as CPUs, memory, drives and OS.
•No need to power on the system (NB. PSU must be connected).
•Update individual (IPMI 2.0) or multiple boards simultaneously (Command Line).
