Prior to finding the ASUS ESC4000 G4X High-Performance 2U, the client encountered significant hurdles in their infrastructure. They needed a solution that provided a compact footprint yet could accommodate over two A100 GPUs and additional add-on AOCs within one system. The aim was to strike a balance between density and performance without sacrificing either aspect.

• The client sought a system that offered a compact footprint while also having the capability to support more than two A100 GPUs and other Add-On AOCs within a single system.

• The goal was to find a balance between density and performance without compromising on either.

A client required a powerful GPU solution to process 3D CT scans with high memory demands. DiGiCOR introduced a cost-effective, high-performance system tailored to their specific workload needs. Here is how we implement our solutions:

1. Needs assessment: Identified the requirement for large GPU memory to handle three-dimensional CT scan workloads.

2. Solution design: Recommended the ASUS ESC4000 G4X High Performance 2U server, configured with an NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 GPU.

3. Optimisation: Chose the Quadro RTX 8000 for its large memory capacity and cost-effectiveness, prioritising performance over training speed since time was not critical.
