this thing rocks!

Some of you may not have heard, but BOXX just released a new workstation this week.

Now, I usually try to stay fairly informational and unbiased around here. And the following statement is not an exaggeration or simple marketing hype:

The 3DBOXX 4850 Extreme is the fastest uni-processor graphics workstation ever designed.

It's true. Over the past few months of internal product design and engineering here at BOXX, our teams began to see a trend from the earliest stages... In test after test, we saw system performance of this new workstation platform rivaling the fastest graphics workstations on the market. This included workstations from all major competitors at every price and configuration!

BOXXlabs uses a number of industry-standard applications and benchmark suites to evaluate and "tweak" the performance of all BOXX workstations and rendernodes.

Our tests look at a number of areas of system performance and capabilities including raw numerical processing speed, memory performance, hard drive & storage performance, thermal and acoustic footprints, etc

In our testing of the new 3DBOXX 4850 Extreme, we determined the following technical and market-related characteristics :

3DBOXX 4850 Extreme provides:

-unrivaled single-threaded performance
-unrivaled multithreaded performance for a single CPU system
-unrivaled performance for compositing applications including combustion, AE CS4 & Fusion
-unrivaled price-performance compared to any major competitor including Apple, HP & DELL

This machine simply rocks.

That is all.

greetings CG pros and enthusiasts alike!
