BOXX Technologies announced that it is ready to ship its 7400 Series of high-performance workstations, featuring Dual-Core AMD Opteron processors. Dual-Core AMD64 technology is a natural extension of AMD’s Direct Connect Architecture, directly connecting CPU, memory and I/O resources as opposed to having these resources accessed via a front-side bus.

"BOXX customers are already seeing dramatic performance advantages with AMD multi-core technology," says Reese Gautschi, director of marketing at BOXX Technologies, Inc. "As one of the first companies to revenue-ship AMD Dual-Core parts in our 7400 series workstations, BOXX is pleased to offer the latest technology advances to creative professionals sooner than our competitors can."  

BOXX workstations offer superior performance, dependability and innovation and are optimized for visual computing applications–from 2D/3D graphics and visual simulation to digital video and audio post production. Among the specs:

• Dual-Core AMD Opteron processors 200 Series

• Dual NVIDIA nForce Professional 2050 and 2200 MCPs for a high-performance, scalable architecture that provides advanced features for AMD Opteron processors  

 • NVIDIA SLI technology and BOXX’s unique dual PCI-E x16 implementation to elevate graphics performance levels  

 • Dual PCIe x16 slots include full x16 speed on each slot — providing exceptional dual monitor performance or outstanding performance to a single monitor from NVIDIA Quadro SLI GPUs  

 • Both 32- and 64-bit computing capabilities (with the availability of Microsoft® Windows® x64 Professional edition)  

 • Expanded I/O options include SATA 3Gbps and storage for large datasets (up to 5TB internal), multiple chassis options for expanded RAID protected storage and hotswap storage options
