Incredible Server Performance and Flexibility in an Energy Efficient Custom Design

The Intel® Server System R2300GZ family takes full advantage of the new Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 product family capabilities with the Intel® Server Board S2600GZ family. The Intel Server System R2300GZ features an energy efficient spread core design and maximum  (768 GB) memory capacity with up to 24 DIMMS, S2600GZ-based rack-optimized server systems deliver unmatched performance, I/O capacity, and flexibility in an expansive family of 1U and 2U systems for the most demanding enterprise data center, cloud, or high performance computing (HPC) environments.

The Intel Server System R2300GZ family makes use of several new Intel® Server Board Technology Innovations exclusively available on Intel® Server Products. Intel® Advanced Management Technology helps simplify and optimize system management for higher capacity and more secure platform management; Intel® Quiet Thermal Technology provides thermal and acoustic management to reduce unnecessary noise and provide cooling flexibility while maximizing system efficiency; and Intel® Efficient Power Technology helps improve power efficiency and reliability.

Target Applications

For data center, cloud, or HPC customers who require a no compromise, rack-optimized solution, the R2300GZ family delivers maximum (768 GB) memory capacity, I/O expansion, and powerful performance in an energy efficient design.
