He Edge Computing, The computing philosophy of processing data as close as possible to its source is more fashionable than ever. Tasks that previously required a server or a network of servers with a certain power can now be performed on small devices thanks to Artificial Intelligence and the evolution of current processors and GPUs.
For this reason, during these days we do not stop seeing new releases related to “edge computing”. Now it's ASUS's turn with its division ASUS IoT launched the PE8000G, a small server intended for edge computing that hides inside twelfth and thirteenth generation Intel Core processors of up to 65W, with up to 64 GB of DDR5 at 4800 MHz, along with an Intel T680E chipset and support for 4 graphics cards or accelerators working simultaneously .
He ASUS PE8000G It is capable of handling two GPUs with consumption of 450 W each and is powered directly from an 8 to 48 V direct current socket for its source of up to 960W.
It offers one USB-C 3.2 20 Gbps, two USB-A 3.0 5 Gbps, two USB-A 2.0 and another four USB-A 3.1 10 Gbps, in addition to two RJ45 sockets, two HDMI, two DisplayPort, output/input audio and 6 COM ports.
