Power envelope
- GPU draw: 8 x 575 W = 4 600 W
- System total at full load: ~5 520 W
- PSU total: 6 000 W (5x 1200 W) — 8% headroom at spec
- Kentino ships with GPU power-cap at 500 W — total drops to ~4 920 W (~15% headroom)
Lane topology
Dual Turin provides 2x 128 = 256 PCIe Gen5 lanes host-side. Active Gen5 risers carry Gen5 x16 end-to-end at each GPU — no PCIe switch required (one CPU per 4-card bank). No NVLink; inter-GPU P2P at Gen5 x16 (~60 GB/s nominal per link).

Not ideal for
- Budget-conscious deployments (Turin premium vs Genoa or Rome alternatives)
- Single-tenant 70B dense workloads (overkill — 4x RTX 5090 or 4x RTX Pro 6000 is the right tier)
- Frontier 600B+ at Q4+ full context (require 576 GB+ pool — see 6x RTX Pro 6000)
- Sustained training from scratch (no NVLink on consumer RTX 5090)
Warranty and lead time
Build includes assembly, BIOS configuration, driver install, burn-in testing, and functional verification. Lead time depends on component availability, confirmed at order.
Recommended add-ons
- Scale RAM to 1.5 TB DDR5 (24x 64 GB full population) — required for Kimi-K2 Q4 or DeepSeek V3 Q3 without RAM spill
- NVIDIA ConnectX-5 100 GbE MCX555A-ECAT — Gen5 fabric for cluster nodes
- Mellanox ConnectX-6 25 GbE SFP28 for datacenter fabric
- 4 TB NVMe Gen4 x4 for boot + model library
- Full 24U rack cabinet with managed PDU
- Online UPS 8-10 kVA (critical — 5.5 kW peak draw)
The questions buyers ask us most often before ordering a server.
How long does it take?
Machines built from components we hold ship quickly; anything requiring a specific GPU generation depends on supply. We give you a date before you pay, and if it moves we tell you rather than letting you find out.
Can the configuration be changed before you build it?
Almost always. GPUs, memory, storage and cooling are chosen per order, and the listed configuration is a starting point rather than a fixed package. If you need more VRAM, faster storage or a different cooling approach, say so before you order and we will quote the change.
Can I collect the server in person?
You can. Our warehouse is in Prague, and collection in person is welcome — most people who come use the visit to go through the machine with our engineer and ask the questions that are awkward over email. For orders within the Czech Republic we also try to deliver personally and walk you through the setup on site.
Can I talk to someone who actually understands the workload?
Yes. We have an engineer who works on AI systems specifically, not a general sales desk. If your question is about batch sizes, quantisation, interconnect or where your bottleneck will be, ask it — that conversation usually changes the configuration for the better.
Which model can I run on this configuration?
Yes. Every machine is assembled, burn-in tested and benchmarked on real AI workloads before it ships, and it leaves us with an LLM already installed and running. You plug it in, connect it to your network and start work — the only decision left is which project it runs first.
How do you test a server before shipping?
We run it against actual AI workloads rather than synthetic scores: inference throughput, sustained load behaviour and thermals under continuous operation. You get the benchmark results with the machine, so the performance you were promised is the performance you can verify on day one.
Is the server ready to run when it arrives?
Yes. Every machine is assembled, burn-in tested and benchmarked on real AI workloads before it ships, and it leaves us with an LLM already installed and running. You plug it in, connect it to your network and start work — the only decision left is which project it runs first.
Ships from our EU warehouse. Heavy items may require freight arrangement — contact us for a shipping quote and lead time. 2-year limited warranty with advanced RMA support; extended warranty available.
Not exactly what you need?
Tell us your workload and we'll spec this platform around it — GPUs, memory, storage and cooling matched to what you actually run.
