performance to power film & broadcast production and post-production

Software toolsets for DI (Digital Intermediate) and VFX/compositing film or broadcast television projects demand the highest levels of workstation performance. The artists who work with these tools require maximum interactivity and speed when dealing with high-resolution media in order to make decisions that affect the quality of their final product -while meeting ever tightening deadlines. BOXX designed the RTX Series workstations specifically for working effortlessly with HD, 2K and 4K motion media in today’s fast-paced post-production pipelines.

The RTX Series is designed in close cooperation with software vendors who develop applications for DI and VFX applications for maximum performance and stability and value. RTX is optimized to take advantage of key features in specific applications such as ASSIMILATEtm SCRATCH, Iridas™ Speedgrade/Framecycler, Autodesk™ TOXIK , Autodesk ™ Combustion, Adobe™ CS3, Eyeon™  Fusion and many other applications designed to work at high resolutions with uncompressed motion media. And as always, the highly-trained BOXX support staff is there to support artists with pipeline-specific issues whenever they arise.

An important part of digital filmmaking is the ability to easily check the quality of the footage at the end of a day’s shooting on set. The RTX 8400 offers the freedom to view “digital dailies” at uncompressed 4K, 2K, & HD resolutions at along with real-time color grading & image processing such as RGB defocus and grain control.

Available in both desk-side and rack-mounted configurations, the innovative RTX chassis is designed to internally house up to 24 hot-swappable data drives in addition to two system drives. The BOXX RTX can deliver  well over 1GB/s of storage throughput - essential for rapidly loading  high-resolution sequential frames up to 4K in size. BOXX RTX features up to 15TB  of  high-performance internal storage that achieves the high-speed RAID performance required for working with uncompressed multilayer 4K, 2K & HD material.

The BOXX RTX 8400 fuses the latest technological advances in data storage and processing power –along with an outstanding integrated design – to provide unmatched interactivity and productivity for today’s advanced high-resolution digital media workflows. The new RTX is powered by dual quad-core Intel® Xeon® 5400 Series processors. In tests conducted by BOXXlabs with leading VFX & DI applications, quad-core Intel® Xeons delivered maximum processing power for a truly interactive creative experience. Because the 3DBOXX RTX is a 64-bit workstation, it can come configured with RAID partitions greater than 2TB -and accessing up to 32GB of RAM is a definite advantage for many leading-edge 64-bit toolsets.

BOXX RTX 8400 can come configured with a wide range of storage, graphics and I/O options to meet the demands of virtually any project or facility.
