Exclusive Performance Boost technology
ASUS servers feature exclusive Performance Boost technology to achieve the best server performance and agility by tuning servers to match the requirements of workloads, letting you gain greater control of your server environment. This technology improves workload throughput by maximizing processor frequency and boost power, ideal for time-sensitive applications such as financial services or data center operations. In the BIOS you can choose from pre-configured server profiles optimized for specific workloads, maximizing overall performance and reducing server-configuration time.

Exclusive Thermal Radar technology for energy efficiency
RS720-E9-RS8-G features ASUS-exclusive Thermal Radar technology with ambient sensors placed in CPU, memory, NVMe, SSD, OCP mezzanine connector for internal and external temperature monitoring, and dynamic fan-curve adjustment, which lowers fan power consumption by up to 20% and reduces total cost of ownership — ideal for data centers with extreme workloads.

Dedicated Airflow Management
RS720-E9-RS8-G is designed with dedicated airflow channels for the whole system, four dedicated fans for the GPU, and four system fans for the CPU to deliver reliable performance and thermal control.

Scalable Design for Growing Workloads
RS720-E9-RS8-G is designed for easy scalability to fit growing businesses and multiple workloads. It is available with a choice of two PCIe Gen3 x16 links to fit full-height, full-length GPU cards, and it features three PCIe x8 links for HBA/RAID cards to deliver parallel computing power.

RS720-E9-RS8-G also features multiple interface types for flexible storage configurations, including dual PCIe or SATA M.2, and port-to-port OCuLink with Intel VROC technology for four hot-swappable 2.5-inch NVMe SSDs. It also fits up to eight 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch 6Gbps SATA HDDs or eight 2.5-inch SAS HDDs with an HBA/RAID card.

Ultrafast Connectivity for HPC Applications
RS720-E9-RS8-G features two embedded Gigabit Ethernet ports and one PCIe slot for 100G high speed LAN cards. Additionally, it supports one OCP 2.0 Mezzanine card, ideal for HPC applications that require high-bandwidth, low-latency network support to connect multiple nodes and clusters.

Comprehensive IT infrastructure management
RS720-E9-RS8-G features an embedded iKVM module and is bundled with ASUS Control Center to provide comprehensive out-of-band and in-band management features for small and mid-size businesses.

The embedded ASMB9-iKVM module supports remote BIOS updates, fan control, standalone KVMs, video recording, and BSOD capture, providing around-the-clock remote monitoring and diagnostics — even if the operating system is down or offline — through a user-friendly, web-based graphical interface that works with all major browsers.

ASUS Control Center (ACC) is a centralized and integrated IT management platform for monitoring and controlling ASUS commercial products, including servers, workstations and digital signage. ACC enables remote BIOS updates, monitoring of multiple systems via mobile devices, and one-click software updates and dispatching, allowing easier server management for any IT infrastructure.
