ASUS ESC N8-E11
A 7U eight-GPU server built on the NVIDIA HGX baseboard, with dual 5th generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors at 350 W, NVLink giving 900 GB/s directly between GPUs, and a dedicated one-GPU-to-one-NIC topology supporting up to eight NICs. It offers up to 12 PCIe slots, 32 DIMM slots, 10 NVMe bays, dual 10Gb LAN and optional OCP 3.0, with 4+2 80 PLUS Titanium supplies and support for direct-to-chip liquid cooling alongside separate CPU and GPU airflow tunnels. ASUS offered it with either the HGX H100 or the HGX H200 baseboard; the figures here are for the H200 configuration. ASUS publishes no FLOPS figure of its own, so the compute shown is NVIDIA's for the HGX H200 baseboard this machine carries. Note that ASUS's detailed specification tab does not render server-side, so chassis dimensions, weight and power supply wattages could not be read and are deliberately absent rather than estimated.

Where a vendor states a basis, the figure shown is the dense one, and any figure it publishes is listed separately. Vendors commonly headline the sparse number instead: for NVIDIA's 2:4 structured sparsity that is exactly twice the dense figure, though other vendors' sparse modes do not all follow that ratio.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the ESC N8-E11 cost?
ASUS sells the ESC N8-E11 on quote through OEMs and resellers, and nobody rents a whole one by the hour. Renting its 8 H200 accelerators separately at the cheapest live rate Flopper tracks, $2.09 per GPU-hour across 21 providers, comes to about $16.72 an hour for the equivalent capacity. H200 rental prices →
How much power does the ESC N8-E11 require?
ASUS has not published a power figure for the ESC N8-E11, and Flopper does not derive one from the accelerator count because the rest of the system draws power too.
How many GPUs are in the ESC N8-E11?
8. The ESC N8-E11 carries 8 NVIDIA H200 SXM 141GB accelerators in a rack form factor, and every throughput figure on this page is the total across them. H200 specifications →
