DELL PowerEdge R760 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon Platinum 8468 48C 32GB DDR5 H965i 5720 iDRAC9 2x 1400W PSU

Dual 48-Core Xeon Server

The Dell PowerEdge R760 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 processors, each delivering 48 cores at a base frequency of 2.1GHz with a 3.8GHz turbo. It ships with 32GB of DDR5-4800 ECC registered memory across 32 available slots, supporting up to 8TB total capacity. This configuration targets virtualization hosts, AI inference, and database clusters that demand high core density and fast memory bandwidth in a compact rack footprint.

Sixteen-Bay Chassis With Front RAID

The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays, though only four drive trays are included. A PERC H965i controller with 8GB non-volatile cache manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 across SAS, SATA, and NVMe drives, freeing internal PCIe slots for additional accelerators or network cards. Dual 1400W platinum power supplies and an OCP 3.0 quad-port 1GbE adapter are pre-installed, while iDRAC9 Datacenter enables full out-of-band lifecycle management without consuming a dedicated management port.

Sustained Enterprise Workloads

Dual 1400W platinum supplies and redundant hot-swap cooling keep both Xeons at turbo frequencies during extended compute runs such as model training or large-scale SQL transactions. The H965i cache protects write throughput during prolonged storage streams, and DDR5 ECC memory maintains data integrity across multi-day jobs. Buyers who need GPU density beyond the available PCIe Gen5 slots or who require single-thread frequencies above 3.8GHz should evaluate alternative platforms.
