The present invention discloses a design method of layout at a board card golden finger and a server board card. The design method comprises the steps of: setting the quantity of GND via interconnected with GND pins according to the types of the GND pins on the board card golden finger and a space between a golden finger on the board card and the GND vias to allow the GND vias interconnected withthe GND pins to reach the maximum quantity; and combining and interconnecting the GND pins with all the GND vias matched with the GND pins to form a signal return path; in the signal return path, getting all the GND vias tightly close to the matching GND pins to minimize the length of the signal return path. The design method can greatly reduce the degree of attenuation in the transmission processof high-speed signals and can effectively optimize the signal return path so as to avoid generation of resonance points on a high-frequency section by a signal insertion loss waveform, near-end cross-talk frequency domain waveform and far-end cross-talk frequency domain waveform, facilitate improvement of the quality of signal transmission and improve the operation stability of the whole system.
