The bare metal machine types from the C3 machine series are now generally available with GKE clusters. You can now provision machine types such as c3-standard-192-metal in Standard mode with any available GKE version.

To use these machine types with Autopilot mode, ComputeClasses, and node pool auto-creation, you must specify the exact machine type using a custom ComputeClass and use GKE version 1.35.3-gke.1389000 or later.
