DELL PowerEdge R760 16 Bay 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon Platinum 8468 2.1GHz 48 Core 32GB DDR5

Enterprise 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R760 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 processors running at 2.1GHz with a 3.8GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 48 cores, giving the system 96 cores total for heavy parallel workloads. It ships with 32GB of DDR5-4800 ECC registered memory across 32 available slots and supports up to 8TB of RAM. The PERC H965i controller manages up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays for SAS, SATA, or NVMe storage.

Redundant 1400W platinum power supplies

Dual 1400 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation. The 2U chassis uses Dell's thermal design to move air across the dual processors, memory modules, and storage bays while maintaining acoustic levels suitable for data centre rows. iDRAC 9 Datacenter enables remote power monitoring, thermal telemetry, and firmware updates without host OS involvement. The Broadcom 5720 quad-port 1GbE OCP 3.0 adapter handles management and workload traffic on a shared mezzanine slot.

Sustained all-core performance within 2U thermal

Under sustained load, both Platinum 8468 processors maintain all-core frequencies within the 2U power and thermal budget defined by the 1400W redundant supply pair. The H965i controller's 8GB NV cache absorbs write bursts during prolonged database or virtualization workloads while the sixteen bay backplane supports mixed NVMe and SAS/SATA devices without PCIe lane contention. iDRAC telemetry logs thermal headroom and power draw trends so operators can schedule workloads before throttling occurs.
