ASRock Rack's TURIN2D48G-2L+ is simply a sizable caller server motherboard designed to grip nan astir demanding needs of high-performance computing.

Supporting dual AMD EPYC 9005/ 9004 bid processors, including nan top-tier 192-core EPYC 9965, this motherboard is engineered for maximum powerfulness and representation capacity.

With 48 DIMM slots - 24 per CPU socket - it tin support up to 96GB per RDIMM and up to 512GB per RDIMM-3DS module (for a full of 24.6TB), offering important representation scalability. The committee besides supports DDR5 representation pinch frequencies of up to 5200MHz for azygous DIMMs per transmission (1DPC), aliases 4400MHz erstwhile utilizing 2 DIMMs per transmission (2DPC).

For nan astir demanding workloads

The TURIN2D48G’s layout has been designed specifically to accommodate these monolithic representation and processing requirements. Measuring 18" x 16.9", nan committee tin support CPUs pinch a TDP of up to 500W, ensuring that moreover nan astir power-hungry processors are adequately managed. To fresh nan 48 DIMM slots nan CPU sockets person been offset.

In summation to offering much representation capacity than galore competing platforms, nan motherboard offers awesome PCIe and retention capabilities. It supports 12 MCIO slots (PCIe 5.0/CXL 2.0 x8), on pinch up to 34 SATA 6Gb/s connections, and 2 M.2 slots besides supply further retention options, each supporting either PCIe 3.0 x4 aliases SATA 6Gb/s drives.

Networking is handled by 2 RJ45 1GbE ports powered by Intel’s i350 controller, and distant guidance is disposable via integrated IPMI pinch a dedicated guidance LAN port.

The TURIN2D48G is designed to radiance successful environments wherever monolithic representation and precocious halfway counts are critical. Its support for CXL 2.0 and PCIe 5.0 committedness accelerated connection betwixt processors, memory, and peripherals, while nan integrated cooling options, pinch support for high-powered CPUs, make it suitable for nan astir demanding workloads for illustration AI training and large-scale information analysis.

ServeTheHome sewage a firsthand look astatine nan motherboard during AMD's AI arena pursuing nan motorboat of nan EPYC 9005 Turin and noted, “Something neat astir this motherboard is that beyond supporting a immense number of cores and DIMMs, it is besides offers thing Intel does not have. The Intel Xeon 6900P besides has 12 transmission memory, but tin only support 1 DIMM per channel. As a result, nan 12-channel 2DPC offering from AMD offers thing beyond conscionable nan maximum earthy halfway count for AMD EPYC Turin platforms complete Intel Xeon platforms. It is besides cool to spot specified a ample motherboard!”
