GIGABYTE E264-S30-AAJ1 barebone server 2U 16 DIMM 2 GPU

SKU CH-RG28-NYXB8 MPN E264-S30-AAJ1

A 2U barebone server supporting a single Xeon 6 processor, 16 DDR5 DIMM slots and two dual-slot Gen5 GPUs

  • Single Intel Xeon 6 processor on LGA 4710 socket
  • 16 DDR5 RDIMM or MRDIMM slots across eight channels
  • Two dual-slot PCIe Gen5 GPUs supported in 2U
  • Two 2.5-inch hot-swap bays for NVMe SATA SAS drives
  • Dual ROM architecture plus 1GbE LAN via Intel I210-AT

Purpose-built edge server

The GIGABYTE E264-S30-AAJ1 is a 2U barebone platform designed for workloads that demand GPU acceleration at the edge. It supports a single Intel Xeon 6 processor in an LGA 4710 socket and accommodates two dual-slot PCIe Gen5 GPUs for compute-intensive tasks. The chassis targets deployments where density and expansion matter.

Thermals and power in normal use

Dual ROM architecture provides firmware redundancy for uninterrupted operation during updates. Eight-channel DDR5 RDIMM and MRDIMM memory across sixteen DIMM slots sustains high bandwidth for data-heavy applications. Front-access hot-swap bays simplify drive maintenance without disrupting airflow through the enclosure.

Build integration and expansion

Two 2.5-inch Gen5 bays accept NVMe, SATA or SAS-4 drives for flexible storage configurations. One M.2 slot runs at PCIe Gen5 x2 while a second shares its lane with SATA, letting you choose between speed and legacy compatibility. A single 1GbE Intel I210-AT port handles management and light data traffic.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Intel Xeon 6 processor into the LGA 4710 socket without bending pins?

Align the processor triangle with the socket marker, lower it vertically without force, then secure the retention lever. The LGA 4710 contacts are on the socket, so the CPU itself has no pins to bend.

Which components will need replacement first in the E264-S30-AAJ1 under continuous operation?

The system fans and the dual ROM firmware chips are the primary service items. Drive bays support hot-swap replacement of 2.5 inch NVMe, SATA or SAS-4 media without downtime.

What thermal limit appears first when both dual-slot Gen5 GPUs run sustained workloads?

The 2U chassis airflow path becomes the bottleneck. GPU boost clocks will throttle once the shared exhaust temperature exceeds the platform thermal threshold.
