AMD EPYC™ 4005 & 4004 Series Solutions
Enterprise Solutions for AMD EPYC™ 4005 & 4004 Series Processors
Socket AM5: High-performance, validated server platform designed for easy-to-use, low-cost systems for growing businesses and hosting
AMD EPYC CPUs for 24x7 Business Growth and Manageability
AMD EPYC™ 4004 Series Processors were a welcome addition to the 4th Gen AMD EPYC™ processor family, and now the 4005 Series comes out of a new processor family with "Zen 5" core architecture - lowering the threshold for businesses and hosting services that have been wanting to move to a platform with a server OS and other enterprise features, yet at an optimal price point in GIGABYTE solutions. SMB and hosting services rely on server-grade reliability so they can continue running 24x7. At the same time, they need to have a higher degree of manageability than what is found at the consumer level. On top of validating, GIGABYTE provides GIGABYTE Management Console (GMC) for system management and GIGABYTE Server Management (GSM) software for monitoring multiple servers.
4th Gen AMD EPYC™ Processors for SP6 Socket
AMD AM5 Socket is versatile as it can support the consumer platform yet is able to step into the field of enterprise-level applications, and GIGABYTE has motherboards and servers to support it. Taking advantage of its low cost per core and high core count options, the first processor on this platform, the AMD Ryzen™ 7000 Series, has proven its value in the enterprise server market. Now leaping to the AMD EPYC™ 4005 Series, AMD furthers expands capabilities by including even more enterprise features, such as support for Windows Server 2025. Using "Zen 5" architecture, processors can easily handle compute-heavy workloads yet are multiskilled for users to find an optimal choice for applications where performance, productivity, and efficiency matter.

Support for Server OS
GIGABYTE has validated AM5 platforms for compatibility with Windows Server 2025 and Ubuntu 24.04, for greater manageability and security.
Ease of Management
GIGABYTE servers come with GIGABYTE Management Console for IPMI management. And when using a server OS, greater management and control is possible.
Continuous Operation
GIGABYTE solutions have RAS features for continuous uptime and availability as users require and expect stable performance around the clock.
Energy Efficient
The use of high-efficiency VRMs & MOSFETs and low ESR capactitors & DCR choke achieve higher levels of efficiency in servers and motherboards.
Low-cost
With a cost down approach to design, unnecessary features are omitted, ensuring enterprise features in a very favorable, entry-level price point.
Ideal Form Factor
From micro ATX motherboard to short depth edge server to traditional rack server, every deployment scenario is covered in the GIGABYTE AM5 platform.

STH Examines - Affordable Virutalization?
Is it possible to run an enterprise-grade platform while at a very attractive price? The R113-C10 and AMD EPYC 4464P show it is possible, and it is great for SMBs, homelabs, or MSP deployments.
Why is it popular?
- affordable combo (server & CPU) price
- supports 12 "Zen 4" cores
- ECC memory support
- great virtualization capabilities
- software licensing value
And the cherry on top is the great value considering that Windows Server and other software licensing models have a 16 core license pack. This system ticks all the boxes, but its best to hear from STH's Patrick.
Applications for an Entry-level Server Platform
Small and Medium-sized Businesses
SMBs have business workloads that rely on around the clock, reliable systems. Common needs: file sharing and storage, email hosting, server-grade security, remote access, website hosting, and data backup and recovery. All while being scalable and cost-effective.
Hosted & Colocation IT Service Providers
Whether it be dedicated hosting or colocation hosting, providers seek server platforms for: cost efficiency to reduce their CapEx and OpEx, scalability for fluctuating demand, risk mitigation with low-cost hardware that is customizable and can quickly turn a profit.
Educational Institutes and Nonprofits
Schools and universities use entry-level servers to teach students about server administration, networking, and web development. Nonprofits need affordable solutions to manage their websites, databases, and handle fundraising efforts and operations.
