At MWC 2025, Dell demonstrated a number of new servers based on Intel Xeon 6 and AMD EPYC Turin hardware platforms for various tasks, including resource-intensive AI applications and edge workloads.
In particular, the PowerEdge R670 dual-socket system in a 1U form factor, focused on high-performance computing, is presented. It can install two Xeon 6700E (Sierra Forest-SP) or 6500P/6700P (Granite Repids-SP) processors and 32 DDR5-6400 RAM modules with a total capacity of 2 TB. The system can be equipped with two bootable M.2 NVMe SSDs, as well as eight E3.S drives (PCIe 5.0 NVMe) or eight SFF SAS/SATA/NVMe devices. Two OCP 3.0 slots and two PCIe 5.0 x16 connectors are available. Power is provided by a power unit with a capacity of up to 1500 W with an 80 Plus Platinum/Titanium certificate. An air cooling system is used.
Dell’s booth also features a 6U PowerEdge XE9680 GPU server, which is designed for two Intel Xeon Emerald Rapids chips (up to 64 cores per processor). This machine has 32 slots for DDR5-5600 modules with a total capacity of up to 4 TB. It can accommodate up to eight SFF NVMe/SAS/SATA SSD drives or up to 16 E3.S NVMe devices. The server can carry up to eight NVIDIA HGX H200, AMD Instinct MI300X, or Intel Gaudi3 AI accelerators. It uses 80 Plus Titanium-certified 2800 W power supplies.
The PowerEdge XE7745 server is demonstrated for tuning AI models, inference, HPC tasks, etc. The 4U device is designed for two AMD EPYC Turin processors. It supports 24 DDR5-6000 modules, up to eight E3.S drives (PCIe 5.0 NVMe), and up to eight PCIe 5.0 x16 AI accelerators. The power of the power supplies is 3200 W (80 Plus Titanium).
The PowerStore 500T storage system is presented in a 2U form factor. It can be equipped with two Intel Xeon processors with 24 cores and a maximum of 192 GB of RAM. It is possible to install 25 NVMe SSD drives in SFF format.
Other exhibits include a 1U general-purpose PowerEdge XR5610 server supporting one Xeon Emerald Rapids/Xeon EE processor, a PowerSwitch Z9864F switch with 64 800GbE ports (OSFP112), and more.
