Notes

The Penguin Solutions Altus XE4318GTS-DTC is a 4U GPU server carrying eight NVIDIA HGX B200 SXM modules of 180 GB each, hosted by AMD EPYC 9005/9004 Series processors with 8x PCIe Gen5 x16 FHHL and 4x PCIe Gen5 x16 FHHL double-width. The DTC suffix marks Penguin's direct-to-chip liquid cooling, which is what folds an eight-accelerator Blackwell baseboard into 4U where the air-cooled equivalent needs 8U. 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.
