ASUS RS720-E11-RS24U-20WGP10G 2U barebone server

2U dual-socket barebone for Xeon Scalable

The ASUS RS720-E11-RS24U-20WGP10G is a 2U rackmount server barebone designed for dual Intel Xeon Scalable processors using the LGA 4677 socket. It targets organisations building high-density compute or storage nodes that require extensive NVMe capacity and PCIe 5.0 expansion. The chassis arrives without CPUs, memory or drives installed.

Sustained load behaviour with 2000W redundant power

Dual 2000W 80 Plus Platinum power supplies in 1+1 redundancy feed the platform, while an enhanced volume air cooling (EVAC) heatsink handles processors with higher TDP during prolonged AI, HPC or database workloads. Four PCIe 5.0 slots — including two x8 links or one x16 link, one low-profile x16 slot and an OCP 3.0 module — maintain full bandwidth for accelerators and networking under continuous utilisation.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your chosen Xeon Scalable processors match the LGA 4677 socket and that DDR5 modules operate at 4800 MT/s for 1DPC or 4400 MT/s for 2DPC across the 32 DIMM slots. Storage planning must account for 24 front 2.5-inch hot-swap bays supporting NVMe plus NVMe/SATA/SAS (SAS requires an HBA/RAID card), two M.2 slots and the need for a GPU no wider than a dual-slot form factor.
