AUSTIN, Tex., Feb. 24 — BOXX Technologies, the leading innovator of high-performance computer workstations and rendering systems, today introduced APEXX 5, the world’s most advanced professional workstation. Designed to accommodate demanding engineering, architectural, VFX, and animation workflows, the highly configurable APEXX 5 is designed to maximize I/O expandability with up to seven total expansion cards, and reach new heights in rendering and simulation.

“BOXX customers have very specific workflow issues that can only be solved with the proper hardware,” said Chris Morley, BOXX Sr. Product Marketing Manager. “So when an architect, engineer, or visualization professional requires the absolute maximum performance to accommodate their particular workflow, APEXX 5 is the only solution.”

The most advanced x86 workstation on the market, the liquid-cooled APEXX 5 can be custom-configured with a multitude of expansion cards, hard drives, memory, and CPU cores. Featuring dual Intel Xeon 2600v3 processors for up to 36 cores (72 threads) and the most expansion slots of any professional workstation, APEXX 5 includes simultaneous utilizations of four full x16 PCI-E 3.0 expansion slots, PCI-E 2.0 x8 (x4 electrical), PCI-E 3.0 x16 (x8 electrical), PCI-E x8 (x8 electrical), along with eight full-size hard drives. APEXX 5 can also be configured with a vast array of professional expansion cards including a dedicated viewport GPU (up to a NVIDIA Quadro K2200) coupled with four coprocessors or powerful GPUs (up to NVIDIA Quadro K6000s, NVIDIA Tesla, Intel Xeon Phi, or AMD FirePro W9100 cards). In addition to these options, customers can choose from three addition expansion cards, including a Synch card for frame lock, PCI-Express SSDs, and 10 GB Ethernet.

The ultimate platform for large display applications, APEXX 5 is also ideal for GPU rendering in V-Ray RT, NVIDIA Iray, Octane Render, or CATIA Live Rendering or with simulation software like ANSYS, ANSYS Fluent, FluiDyna, and SIMULIA.

“We understand that APEXX 5 addresses a specific market segment and is obviously not for everyone,” says Morley. “But if a creative professional or organization requires this level of power and performance for perfecting their ideas, they can’t get it from Dell, HP, and Lenovo. With APEXX 5, we’re offering configurations once considered impossible, and that’s what it means to be a true solution provider.”
