The SR680a V4 leverages the 2x Intel® Xeon® 6 processors to provide exceptional bandwidth and low latency for training large language models, generative AI, and HPC simulations. Alongside the NVIDIA HGX B300 NVL8 platform this architecture dramatically reduces time-to-insight for complex workloads. With Intel, the SR680a V4 has performance and efficiency without compromise.
High-Speed Memory and I/O Throughput
With 32 DDR5 DIMM slots operating up to 6400MHz and PCIe Gen5 expansion, the SR680a V4 sustains high GPU utilization for data-intensive pipelines. Eight OSFP links to CX8 switches and multiple high-speed PCIe connections ensure efficient scaling.
Enterprise Reliability and Serviceability
Designed for mission-critical deployments, the SR680a V4 features N+N redundant power supplies, N+1 hot-swap cooling, and hot-swap M.2 boot drives. Its air-cooled design provides thermal headroom for current and next generation GPUs while simplifying service operations. With Intel, the SR680a V4 is built and tested for high compute intensity and scale.
Optimized for Next-Generation AI Workloads
Purpose-built for generative AI, deep learning, and large-scale inference, the SR680a V4 delivers the performance and flexibility needed to meet evolving AI and HPC demands. It is a robust platform for enterprises and cloud providers driving cutting-edge innovation.
AI and HPC Application Examples
