Safety information
Electrical Safety
• Before installing or removing signal cables, ensure that the power cables for the system unit and all attached devices are unplugged.
• To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet before relocating the system.
• When adding or removing any additional devices to or from the system, contact a qualified service technician or your dealer. Ensure that the power cables for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected. If possible, disconnect all power cables from the existing system before you service.
• If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a qualified service technician or your dealer.
Operation Safety
• Servicing of this product or units is to be performed by trained service personnel only.
• Before operating the server, carefully read all the manuals included with the server package.

1.1 Key features
The ASUS ESC1000 G2 is a second generation professional workstation based on the Intel Xeon
®
E5-1600 processor platform, featuring three 5.25” media bays, four hot-swap 3.5” SATA hard drive cages, 80PLUS Gold 1350W power supply, and six
PCI Express 3.0 x16 expansion slots. It is designed for professional applications in fluid dynamics, medical research, engineering, the sciences, financial modeling, real-time graphics, rendering, and heavy-duty ray tracing.
Quad-GPU support unleashes more computing power
Six PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots enable up to four double-deck GPUs, using new
Gen 3 links to provide double the bandwidth of PCI Express 2.0. Fully compatible with NVIDIA ® Quadro™ and Tesla™ GPUs, the ESC1000 G2 is ideal for SOHO workplaces with its ability to handle massive computing tasks.
Dual Intel
®
Ethernet for fast networking
Twin Ethernet controllers support doubled network bandwidth, alongside teaming and fault tolerance functions to offer extra-reliable and fast network connections.
ASUS SSD Caching
Unique design boosts system performance by using an installed SSD as a cache for frequently accessed data. This allows you to access data easily and quickly without wasting time waiting for data to transfer.
USB 3.0 Boost
The ESC1000 G2 detects and optimizes connected device protocols automatically for faster USB speeds in all usage scenarios.
Maximum power supply with DIGI+ for demanding workloads
The 1350W 80PLUS Gold power supply unit cuts down system power loss and improves energy efficiency, saving users money on operating costs. With exclusive
ASUS DIGI+ Power, the ESC1000 G2 utilizes precise power adjustments on both the processor and memory modules, providing higher system stability.
DTS
®
Ultra PC II
A brand-new friendly interface brings more functions, including symmetry, audio restoration, and enhancement. DTS ® symmetry monitors and balances level differences between all digital audio formats, while audio restoration reconstructs percussion and transient sounds from compressed sources to restore lost punch and clarity.
AI Suite II
The ESC1000 G2 is bundled with ASUS AI Suite II, which provides one-stop utility management and a user-friendly interface for system tuning.
Chapter 1: Product introduction
Cutting-edge architecture
The ESC1000 G2 supports new Intel ® Sandy Bridge-E processors. With eight
DIMM slots and DDR3 1600, it accommodates up to 64GB in memory capacity, providing high computing capabilities. Extra PCI Express 3.0 lanes are perfect for systems that require high I/O connectivity and bandwidth, with support for more compatible devices.
