Penguin Solutions Altus XE5318GTSv2
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.
We will point you at suppliers who have it. Free, and no signup.

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.

How much power does the Altus XE5318GTSv2 require?
Penguin Solutions has not published a power figure for the Altus XE5318GTSv2, 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 Altus XE5318GTSv2?
8. The Altus XE5318GTSv2 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 →
