Singapore, August 28, 2018 — ASUS, the leading IT Company in server systems, server motherboards, workstations and workstation motherboards today announced it achieved top-performance world records for its 2P servers and now holds a total of 67 top results from the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) for benchmarks measuring computing-intensive performance. RS720-E9 and TS700E9 stand out in the ranking as the 2P servers with the best computing performance, achieving the highest scores for their respective benchmarks.
The world’s fastest computing performance 2P servers
ASUS achieved the world-record computing performance results with the RS720-E9 rack server and TS700-E9 tower server based on the Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8180 processor. RS720-E9 gained four 2P world records for compute-intensive applications with the SPEC CPU® 2017 benchmark, including SPECint 2017 rate and SPECfp 2017 rate. Additionally, TS700-E9 holds four 2P world records for compute-intensive applications with the SPEC CPU2017 benchmark, including SPECfp 2017 and SPECfp 2017. These two winning servers feature ASUS Performance Boost Technology, which utilizes
ASUS-exclusive processor optimizations to reduce latency and increase overall computing performance. These leadership benchmark scores prove ASUS servers’ capability to deliver optimum workload performance based on the real-world applications.
