Utilizing NVIDIA's CUDA processing architecture, customers can render 3D models, perform video processing, and make structural designs effortlessly, for a streamlined workflow without sacrificing any performance. Quality work requires a high-quality screen. You get just that with the high-resolution 4K (3840x2160) display delivering sharper images and true-to-life colors for unprecedented visuals to get the job done right. To ensure that your work is protected, MSI's workstations utilize ECC (error-correcting code) memory to help detect and correct single-bit mem- ory errors that can lead to data corruption or cause a system crash. It also keeps your system in check by preventing stability issues, extending memory life, making troubleshooting easier, and reducing any downtime. The MSI Shortcut manager allows you to program individual keys to execute a string of commands. Use them to quickly launch everyday programs or even customize the keyboard color scheme to streamline your work habits. MSI's exclusive Matrix Display allows support of up to three monitors to transform the ultra-portable workstation into a desktop workstation to run all of your essential programs at the same time via mDP and HDMI. MSI offers a variety of workstations, whether Xeon processor or Core i7 (6th gen) – and all workstations have been certified by AUTODESK, PTC, Adobe, and Solidworks. You can see the entire line of workstations at us.msi.com/Workstation/WS60-Workstation-Intel- Xeon-.html#hero-overview. SOLIDWORKS AutoCAD Autodesk INVENTOR MAYA S P O N S O R E D C O N T E N T Xi MTower CX Small & Powerful XEON Workstation The newest compact, Intel XEON based, workstation from @Xi Computer, the Xi® MTower™ CX, has been designed to provide a High-Performance Graphics desktop experience for designers, engineers and scientists working with modeling as well real time simulations and rendering. While complex modeling relies on fast clock speed and strong graphics, rendering and simulations imply extensive use of multiple cores. Dual and quad processor XEON® workstations offer a great number of cores in excess of 36, but, in general, a relatively low clock speed, with limited single thread modeling performance. The Xi MTower CX is the result of an extensive research and combines the best of both worlds: clock speeds up to 4.2GHz and six or eight cores with big XEON cache. All this, with a fast 2666MHz DDR4 64GB RAM and the ability to use GPU coprocessors, makes the MTower CX the most compact , powerful and cost effective multicore XEON workstation on the market today. An additional challenge, common to all desktop workstations, is to combine a great amount of GPU and CPU power in a relatively small space, while generating the minimum amount of noise. Capitalizing on almost thirty year experience in multi-processor design and integration, Xi managed to offer all of the above in an industry first, compact cube box (15.6"x10.2"x12.6"), with a silently liquid cooled Intel® XEON Processor E5-1600 v3 & v4 series, delivering in excess of 30% more clock speed than the competition with extremely attractive prices, starting at $ 1,339. The MTower CX is capable of supporting up to two GPU like GeForce® TITAN X, or, when utilizing NVIDIA Quadro® Video/GPU, one NVIDIA® Tesla® K40. Fully supported by Microsoft® Windows® 7 & 10 Professional and a multitude of the most popular Linux® Operating Systems, the MTower CX can be custom configured to fit a the most specif- ic computational requirements visiting @Xi website at: www.xicomputer. com or calling toll Free: 1-800-432-0486
