AUSTIN, TX — Boxx Technologies (www.boxx.com) has introduced Apexx 4 6301, its first workstation to feature the new, 16-core AMD Ryzen Threadripper processor. AMD’s highest performing desktop platform ever, Ryzen Threadripper processors offer significant performance increases over previous technology. Boxx is one of the first workstation manufacturers to ship systems equipped with the powerful new processor. 

“The AMD Ryzen Threadripper provides a powerful platform for the Boxx Apexx 4,” says John C. Morris, general manager workstation compute business unit, AMD. “The innovative features found in Threadripper processors will empower VFX artists, animators, and motion media editors to create, render, and multitask faster than ever before.”  

Whether rendering complex 3D scenes, encoding, or powering simulation and analysis, AMD's "Zen" architecture will enable Apexx 4 6301 users to simultaneously multitask without sacrificing efficiency or performance. The 16-core Ryzen Threadripper features 64 PCIe lanes, quad channel DDR4 memory, and AMD simultaneous multithreading (SMT). With support for 32 processing threads, the Ryzen Threadripper 1950X delivers a high level of multi-processing power. 

Apexx 4 6301 also includes up to three, professional-grade AMD Radeon Pro WX Series or Nvidia graphics cards, and up to 128GBs of system memory. Highly configurable, Apexx 4 series workstations provide strong support for multi-threaded applications such as Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Adobe CC, DaVinci Resolve, Cinema 4D, and V-Ray. 

“Apexx 4 is our most versatile workstation product line,” says Boxx VP of marketing and business development, Shoaib Mohammad. “By offering the AMD Ryzen Threadripper CPU combined with Boxx innovation, we are once again providing digital content creators with state-of-the art performance to help them work faster and more efficiently.”
