The Penguin Solutions Altus XE5318GTSv2 is a 5U GPU server carrying eight NVIDIA HGX H200 SXM5 modules of 141 GB each, hosted by AMD EPYC 9005/9004 Series processors with 8x PCIe Gen5 x16 low profile and 4x PCIe Gen5 x16 FHHL. Penguin's AMD-hosted Hopper workhorse, air cooled in 5U. Penguin publishes only rack height, host processor, expansion slots and the accelerator for its servers, so no power draw, total memory, interconnect bandwidth or throughput figure is shown here; its full datasheets are hosted off its own domain and were not used as a source.
