Ready to meet data centre demands

MSI has announced the launch of its latest server boards and platforms powered by AMD EPYC 9005 Series CPUs.

The outfit said its new offerings will address the most demanding data centre workloads, delivering unparalleled performance and efficiency.

Featuring AMD EPYC 9005 Series processors with up to 192 cores and 384 threads, MSI promises breakthrough compute power, unparalleled density, and exceptional energy efficiency.

The company said they are particularly suited to handling AI-enabled, cloud-native, and business-critical workloads.

MSI’s Enterprise Platform Solutions General Manager Danny Hsu said: “Our new AMD EPYC 9005 Series CPU-based platforms are not just about raw performance; they represent a strategic leap forward for data centres looking to maximise operational efficiency while minimising their environmental footprint. These systems ensure enterprises can stay ahead of industry demands and adapt quickly to new opportunities.”

AMD's Server Business Unit senior vice president Ravi Kuppuswamy added: “Fifth Gen AMD EPYC Processors deliver the compute capabilities our customers require for their most demanding AI-enabled data centre workloads. Our highly efficient 'Zen 5' cores and innovative chipset-based architecture allowed us to build an advanced, diversified server CPU portfolio that addresses the rapidly evolving needs of our customers and the modern data centre.”

The DC-MHS server solutions from MSI are powered by the AMD EPYC 9005 Series processors. These solutions support the DC-SCM2 server management module, which features the Aspeed AST2600 BMC, significantly boosting server maintainability and operational efficiency.

MSI's new offerings also include the DC-MHS multi-node server platforms. These house multiple nodes within a chassis, maximising space and resource utilisation while reducing operational costs. Platforms such as the CD370-S4051-X2 3U 2-Node Core Compute Server and the CD270-S4051-X4 2U 4-Node Core Compute Server stand out for their high-speed I/O and scalability, ideal for AI-enabled and data-intensive workloads.

The DC-MHS Enterprise Server range, including the CX271-S4056 2U Enterprise Server, features robust performance capabilities, with high memory bandwidth and scalability. These platforms are designed for data-intensive workloads such as AI, virtualisation, and cloud-native applications.

MSI also introduced server boards, built for memory-intensive and data-driven applications, like the D4056 DC-MHS M-DNO Type-4 HPM and the D4051 DC-MHS M-DNO Type-2 HPM.

In addition, the S2301 2U CXL Memory Expansion Server offers unparalleled memory capacity and scalability, engineered for data-intensive applications such as In-Memory Databases, Electronic Design Automation (EDA), and High-Performance Computing (HPC). Furthermore, the G4101-01 and G4101-03 GPU Servers are designed to deliver exceptional performance for AI, machine learning, and HPC, with liquid cooling and high-speed connectivity.

Finally, MSI’s Enterprise and Storage Server lineup now supports AMD EPYC 9005 Series processors, optimised for performance-critical workloads and designed to offer cost-effective solutions for smaller data centres.
