It can be hard to tell at a glance, but these four PCs are worth around $70,000 AUD all up, and we were lucky enough to have them all ready for a quick photoshoot at the same time late one afternoon.
The liquid cooled systems are cooled by a special-order Threadripper-only liquid cooling block, making the most of the vast surface area that Threadripper CPUs have on their IHS, making for the best cooling performance.
The air cooled system is none other than Noctua, with again a special Threadripper-focused model.
All systems have varying amounts of DDR5 ECC RAM; up to 512GB in one system!
One system has dual Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 24GB graphics cards with a 1650w PSU, and the others have a lower focus on the GPU performance, or plans to upgrade/add later on.
Another system has Nvidia’s Quadro RTX 5000 Ada 32GB professional server/workstation GPU which is quite an impressive unit!
Two of the systems are in rack-mountable chassis, and will be shipped to our customer with the appropriate chassis rails to go into their datacenter.
This is just a snapshot of the sort of work we do year-round, often after substantial back and forth with customers to ensure it’s optimal for each customer’s use-case, and meets their expected lead time as availability on Threadripper builds in Australia can be tricky!
