Overview

About the ESC A8A-E12U

The ASUS ESC A8A-E12U is a 7U dual-socket server with eight AMD Instinct MI325X accelerators and AMD EPYC 9005 processors, built for high-end AI training and large-model inference.

Each MI325X carries 256 GB of HBM3E, and a one-GPU-to-one-NIC topology with AMD Infinity Fabric provides the bandwidth needed for distributed training. It runs the open AMD ROCm software stack.
