KEY POINTS
ASUS at Supercomputing Asia 2025: Comprehensive AI server lineup to accelerate the future of AIAccelerated servers: ESC 8000A-E13P and ESC N8-E11V empower peak performance for generative AI applicationsUnleashing data for HPC: RS720A-E12-RS24U and RS920Q-E12-RS16 offer peak performance, while RS520QA-E13-RS8U provides effortless scalability
SINGAPORE, March 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ASUS showcased an extensive lineup of next-generation infrastructure solutions at Booth B3 during Supercomputing Asia 2025 (SCA25) conference from March 10 to 13 at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Singapore.
GPU servers
ESC 8000A-E13P: Turbocharge generative AI and LLM workloads
Leading the lineup is the ESC 8000A-E13P, a HPC server that’s fully compliant with NVIDIA MGX modular architecture, and able to deploy quickly at a large scale. It offers high-density GPUs for diverse applications, and supports up to eight NVIDIA H200 NVL dual-slot cards of 600 watts each. ESC8000A-E13P also benefits from an optimized a server configuration, with five PCIe® 5.0 slots for high-bandwidth NVIDIA BlueField-3 and NVIDIA ConnectX-8SuperNICs to enhance east-west traffic, and NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs for line-rate processing of software-defined networking, storage, and cybersecurity.
ESC N8-E11V with NVIDIA HGX™ H200: The best choice for heavy AI workloads
For generative AI applications, ASUS highlighted advanced solutions like ESC N8-E11V with the NVIDIA HGX™ H200 platform designed to offer scalable performance for data-intensive tasks like AI, machine learning, and HPC applications. As the expert in AI supercomputing, ASUS has placed a strong emphasis on power efficiency and optimized thermal design within ESC N8-E11V. This powerful AI server supports both air-cooling and D2C (direct-to-chip) liquid-cooling solutions, coupled with dedicated CPU and GPU airflow tunnels, allowing heat to be expelled into the surrounding ambient air ― resulting in greater energy efficiency and overall system power savings. This ensures that the server operates at peak performance, even under the most demanding conditions.
Rack Servers
RS520QA-E13-RS8U: Maximizing efficiency for HPC workloads
ASUS also showcased the RS520QA-E13-RS8U, a cutting-edge multi-node server ideal for HPC, EDA, and cloud computing. Equipped with one AMD EPYC™ 9005 processor, it supports up to 20 DIMM slots per node with advanced CXL memory expansion module, PCIe® 5.0, and OCP 3.0 for robust performance, scalability, and efficiency in demanding workloads.
RS720A-E12-RS24U: New Generation, High Performance 2U Server
ASUS RS720A-E12-RS24U is designed to accelerate application performance leveraging accelerator cards and storage scalability. With the CPU and memory configured in a front parallel design that enables efficient airflow for excellent thermal performance, the RS720A-E12-RS24U is optimized for rack placement.
RS920Q-E12-RS16: Unleashing data for HPC
ASUS RS920Q-E12-RS16 leverages Intel Xeon® 6 processors to provide the density and performance needed to elevate HPC workloads. With direct-to-chip liquid-cooling technology to maintain optimal performance and prevent overheating, the multi-node server offers great scalability and reliability in demanding operational environments such as HPC, cloud computing and more.
Storage server
VS320D-RS26: Optimize price and performance for SMB workloads
ASUS VS320D-RS26 (2.5-inch 2U 26-bay) is a high-density hybrid flash-storage system. It offers 8% more capacity than the common 2U 24-bay products on the market. This can further lower the cost per TB, minimize IT rack space and generate a greener footprint. It delivers outstanding performance ideal for modern enterprise applications store such as virtualization, database, mail server and VDI.
Furthermore, ASUS launched a proof of concept (POC) for the groundbreaking ASUS AI POD, accelerated by NVIDIA Blackwell architecture. Other highlights at the ASUS booth include SoftServe’s Jade, a virtual assistant powered by Generative AI, which enhances customer service with human-like interactions and personalized responses.
Additionally, special guest speakers Mr. Peter Wu, CEO of TWSC, Taiwan AI Cloud and Dr. Robby Tan, Chief Scientist of ASUS Intelligent Cloud Services (AICS) shared their insights on supercomputing and AI. The former delved into Taiwan’s cutting-edge advancements in AI infrastructure, especially in AI cluster design, innovative services and workload optimization to meet diverse workloads. The latter shared insights on using clinical and administrative AI agents in healthcare to enhance decision-making and administrative efficiency, to help providers focus on patient care.
