AsRock 4U8G-ICX2/2T 4U Rackmount GPU Server Barebone
Overview
The AsRock 4U8G-ICX2/2T is a 4U rackmount server barebone built around a dual-socket LGA 4177 (Socket P+) platform, aimed at integrators building out GPU-dense compute nodes for video analytics, AI inference, or general data center compute. As a barebone chassis, the 4U8G-ICX2/2T ships as the mechanical and structural foundation of the server — the platform you build out with your own CPUs, memory, storage, and accelerator cards to match the workload. At 44.09 x 25.20 x 15.35 inches and 119.69 lb empty, this is a full-depth data center chassis meant for standard 4-post rack rail systems, not a shallow edge enclosure.
Key Features
- 4U Rack Form Factor: the taller 4U profile gives you the internal clearance for full-length GPU cards, multiple PSUs, and dense drive bays — the tradeoff for that capacity is rack space, so plan your GPU compute rows accordingly rather than trying to fit this into a 1U/2U edge closet.
- Dual Socket P+ (LGA 4677) Platform: a two-CPU design supports workloads that benefit from higher aggregate core counts and PCIe lane totals than a single-socket board can offer — relevant if you're feeding multiple GPUs or high-throughput NVMe arrays.
- 44.09 x 25.20 x 15.35 in Chassis: confirm rack depth before ordering — at over 25 inches deep, this needs a full-depth cabinet, not a compact network rack.
- 119.69 lb Empty Weight: factor this into rail load ratings and shipping/receiving planning before the unit arrives populated with CPUs, GPUs, and drives, which will add substantially more weight.
- Taiwan Country of Origin: manufactured in Taiwan, relevant for organizations tracking supply chain origin as part of procurement compliance review.
Integration & Compatibility
Because the 4U8G-ICX2/2T (often searched as 4U8G ICX2/2T) is sold as a barebone, final compatibility with specific CPUs, memory modules, GPUs, and storage depends on the components you pair with it — verify processor and memory qualified vendor lists before finalizing a build. If you're speccing this alongside networking or storage infrastructure, review current network video recorders and IP cameras catalogs if this server is destined for a video analytics pipeline, and check a PoE switch lineup if it's feeding edge camera infrastructure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the AsRock 4U8G-ICX2/2T a complete server or a barebone?
A: It is a barebone chassis — CPUs, memory, storage, and GPU cards are added separately to complete the build.
Q: What socket does the 4U8G-ICX2/2T use?
A: It is a dual-socket LGA 4677 (Socket P+) platform.
Q: How much does the 4U8G-ICX2/2T weigh?
A: The barebone chassis weighs 119.69 lb before components are installed.
Q: What are the dimensions of the 4U8G-ICX2/2T?
A: 44.09 x 25.20 x 15.35 inches (L x W x H), a 4U rackmount form factor.
Q: Where is the 4U8G-ICX2/2T manufactured?
A: Taiwan.
The 4U8G-ICX2/2T is a dual-socket LGA 4677 barebone, and the spec sheet I'd want in front of a buyer before quoting simply isn't in front of me yet for this listing — what I can speak to confidently is the physical platform: a 4U chassis at 44.09 x 25.20 x 15.35 inches and 119.69 lb empty.
Technical Highlights:
- Dual Socket P+ (LGA 4677): two-CPU capability gives you headroom for core-count-heavy or PCIe-lane-heavy builds compared to single-socket 1U/2U alternatives.
- 4U Rack Form Factor: the added vertical space over 1U/2U chassis is what makes room for multi-GPU configurations and dense drive bays in the first place.
- 119.69 lb Barebone Weight: get your rail kit and cabinet load rating confirmed now — a fully populated build with dual CPUs, several GPUs, and a full drive complement will run well past this empty weight.
Deployment Considerations:
- At 25.20 inches of depth, measure your cabinet before ordering — this will not fit a shallow network rack.
- As a barebone, CPU, memory, storage, and GPU compatibility need to be verified against AsRock Rack's qualified vendor list before you finalize a bill of materials — those specs aren't included with this chassis listing.
Reasonable fit for an integrator building a custom dual-socket GPU compute node for an on-prem AI inference or video analytics cluster, where you're sourcing CPUs, GPUs, and memory separately and need the 4U8G-ICX2/2T chassis as the structural starting point.
