Single-socket Xeon 6 edge server

The GIGABYTE E164-S30-AAG1 is a 1U rackmount barebones platform built for Intel Xeon 6 processors in the LGA 4710 socket. It accepts one CPU with a TDP up to 350 W and targets edge workloads that need dense compute and fast local storage. No processor or memory is installed, so the buyer selects the exact configuration required.

Sustained load with 350 W TDP headroom

The chassis supports a single processor rated up to 350 W, allowing continuous high-frequency operation without the thermal throttling seen in lower-power 1U designs. Eight memory channels feed up to 16 RDIMM or MRDIMM modules at speeds of 6400 MT/s, 5200 MT/s or 8000 MT/s respectively, keeping bandwidth high during long analytics or inference runs. Dual ROM firmware adds resilience for unattended edge deployments.

Verify CPU, memory and add-in card clearance

Confirm the chosen Xeon 6500-series or 6700-series processor matches the LGA 4710 socket and 350 W TDP limit. Populate all 16 DIMM slots with registered DDR5 RDIMM or MRDIMM kits that meet the listed speed grades per channel count. The two FHHL PCIe Gen5 x16 slots and two OCP NIC 3.0 Gen5 x16 slots require full-height, half-length cards; low-profile cards will not seat correctly.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 350W TDP Xeon 6 generate in this 1U chassis under continuous load?

The single LGA 4710 socket supports Xeon 6 processors up to 350W TDP, so sustained full-load heat output matches that rating.

Which DDR5 RDIMM speeds and population rules apply to the 16 DIMM slots?

16 slots run 8-channel DDR5; RDIMMs reach 6400 MT/s at 1 DPC and 5200 MT/s at 2 DPC, while MRDIMMs reach 8000 MT/s.

Will my existing 2.5" SAS-4 drives work in the hot-swap bays alongside Gen5 NVMe?

The two 2.5" bays accept Gen5 NVMe, SATA and SAS-4 drives simultaneously, so legacy SAS-4 units are compatible.
