[Taipei, Taiwan – September 24, 2024] — ASRock Rack Inc., a leading innovative server company, today announced the launch of its new server platforms, powered by Intel® Xeon® 6900 series processors with Performance-Cores (P-Cores). These advanced platforms are designed to deliver exceptional performance across a wide range of demanding workloads, including High-Performance Computing (HPC), Artificial Intelligence (AI), storage, and networking.

The Intel® Xeon® 6900 Series Processors are optimized for high performance per core and are delivered in a new class of Intel server platform design. They offer up to 12 memory channels, providing greater memory bandwidth to support demanding environments such as cloud, AI, and HPC. Leveraging these processors, ASRock Rack's newly released platforms—the 1U all-flash storage server 1U8E1S-GNRAPDNO and the GNRAPD12DNO server motherboard—fully maximize throughput with unprecedented compute capability.

"The launch of the Intel® Xeon® 6900 series processors marks a pivotal advancement in memory and computing performance, addressing the evolving demands of today's cloud environments," said Hunter Chen, Senior Vice President at ASRock Rack. "Our collaboration with Intel enables us to deliver cutting-edge technology that enhances high-performance computing, AI, and cloud environments, empowering organizations to tackle their most complex challenges."

The 1U8E1S-GNRAPDNO features eight hot-swappable E1.S (PCIe 5.0 x4) drive bays, one FHHL PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, and one OCP NIC 3.0 slot for network expansion. This makes it ideal for storage services and content delivery network applications where data throughput and low latency are critical. At the core of the system is the GNRAPD12DNO server board, designed in the M-DNO Type2 form factor. It includes twelve DIMM slots with a 1 DIMM per channel configuration and supports up to eight MCIO ports for PCIe Gen5 expansion.
