We will also showcase the ESC8000A-E13P, an HPC server that is fully compatible with NVIDIA MGX modular architecture and can be rapidly deployed at scale. It offers high-density GPUs for various applications and supports up to eight NVIDIA H200 NVL dual-slot cards of 600 watts each. The ESC8000A-E13P also benefits from an optimized server configuration, with five PCIe ^® with high bandwidth NVIDIA ConnectX 5.0 slots and NVIDIA BlueField SuperNIC to improve east-west traffic, and NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPU :s for line-speed processing of software-defined networking, storage and cybersecurity.

For generative AI applications, ASUS also provides a range of advanced solutions, including ESC N8-E11V with NVIDIA HGX H200- platform and ESC N8A-E13 with the latest NVIDIA Blackwell platform. These systems are designed to offer scalable performance for a variety of AI workloads and applications.

Advanced cooling solutions and services

A significant portion of data center power consumption is dedicated to managing and dissipating heat. Effectively reducing PUE and maximizing energy savings has been the mission of every data center infrastructure. ASUS partners with global cooling solution providers to provide consulting services and adaptive cooling solutions that can meet different scenarios and requirements.

Our solutions optimize cooling efficiency from ASUS AI POD with a cabinet with NVIDIA GB200 NVL72, throughout the data center and finally to the cooling water tower, offering the choice of either liquid-to-air with sidecar or liquid-to-liquid with in-row coolant-distribution unit (CDU) cooling solutions, effectively achieving up to 95 % heat dissipation.

To ensure that each server performs optimally in real-world environments, ASUS not only considers thermal design, but also provides essential verification and acceptance services for the entire software stack. This process includes rigorous checks on power, networking, GPU cards, voltage, and temperature to ensure smooth operation. Extensive testing resolves issues before delivery, ensuring reliable data center performance under full load.

ASUS and Ubilink: Building a supercomputer center in Taiwan with green energy options

ASUS has completed the design of a global top computer center in partnership with Ubilink – a company created by Foxlink, Ubitus and Shinfox Energy. This world-class data center is also notable for giving customers the freedom to choose packages that use only renewable energy. This groundbreaking achievement was achieved in just three months, with an impressive performance capacity of 45.82 PFLOPS. The center will offer public cloud services, AI computer rentals and subscription-based cloud services.

This achievement underscores ASUS' commitment to delivering high-performance infrastructure and innovative cooling solutions to customers worldwide. ASUS offers a comprehensive range of AI solutions, from GPU servers to integrated racks, and will continue to work with our partners to offer advanced software platforms and tailored solutions for all workloads to empower customers to stay ahead of the AI race.

ASUS relentlessly creates value for customers, shapes a remarkable AI future, and paves the way for next-generation infrastructure solutions. Our rigorous approach ensures that ASUS AI infrastructure solutions offer scalable adaptability, seamlessly adapt to changing AI demands, and future-proof infrastructure for long-term success.
