- Puget System reveals 5 Knude 6u Rackstation for Creative and Testing Workflows
- Each chassis packs five systems with up to 192 GB RAM capacity
- Supports Ryzen 9000 and non-released Zen 5-based EPYC 4005 processors
Puget Systems has announced a new 5-knot 6u rack station built with game developers in mind. The new 5-knot 6u Rackstation reportedly offers an effective, space-saving solution for studios that need flexible and powerful systems.
Each chassis fits five individual workstations in the footprint on a large desk with up to 35 systems in a standard 42U rack.
What is interesting is that if you click here you will see Ryzen 5-Node R550-6U post in the middle of the page. Under this, it shows the AMD settings – Ryzen 9000 and EPYC 4005.
EPYC 4005
Puget notes, “It can also be a good solution for multi-screen installations, saving space compared to five desktop towers or even 2U / 3U size systems.”
Designed for tasks such as 3D modeling or automated test, each knot supports the latest Ryzen CPUs (more about it in one minute) and top-tier GPUs. Nodes can be operated individually, enabling minimal downtime.
Puget says artists can access systems externally through tools such as parsec, while QA teams take advantage of a versatile test bed. This setup gives teams more performance per Rack without sacrificing flexibility or easy leadership.
The ZEN 5-based EPYC 4005, the Code Name Grado, is the follow-up to last year’s Raphael-based EPYC 4004 processors (AM5).
We have seen leaks mention it before, as Toms Hardware Remarks, “Manufacturers are already preparing their motherboard for support,” and other leaks have revealed references to it elsewhere, but it is interesting to see it officially appear in Puget’s new 5-knot 6u rack station.
The entrance notes that Ryzen 5-Home R550-6U has five individual nodes, one GPU, and supports up to 192 GB of RAM, but there are no other details about the EPYC 4005.
However, AMD is expected to show it on Computex 2025, and with what is held from May 20 to May 23, 2025, we don’t have too long to wait.
