Nice build quality, decent fit and finish, reasonable beveled edges. No sharp bits to get cut on.


Best price for the vRAM and tokens. Best power efficiency/lowest waste heat for the performance. A single standard PCIe 6+2 power cable port that won't set your house on fire. Workstation grade radial cooler for long life and teardown verified quality thermal compounds instead of the cheap stuff. Half the vRAM chips are on the back with the same thermal pads as the front chips. Rear plate is cast aluminum with thermal conductive coating with sufficient heat spreading. No thermal issues seen in stress testing benchmarks so far. The card is designed to have up to 4 cards stacked tightly together in a machine with air inlets on both sides and rear spine with the power cable. Best AI entry level card for Windows only users to explore AI with Intel's official app in a turn-key setup that will download supported models and tools like Comfy-Ui dialed in for the platform. Nvidia charges 4600usd for the same user experience out of box with a little more most won't care about unless they are building machines for a molecular biology research lab or self driving cars. Official Linux support plus a recent announced vLLM partnership to expand support among other open source initiatives with an energetic user community contributing to code bases. Good for Plex/Jellyfin home theatre PC with dual hardware video encoders that can encode more HD streams at the same time than anyone else if you know how to leverage it or SRIOv. A viable alternative to Nvidia and his cousin who is the CEO of AMD. (the duopoly is real)

The build quality is very good; very sturdy, no sharp edges, nice finish. Loads of extra screws are included.

Sturdy, well made, quiet, all the pieces were there.


Well built case and came well packaged for shipping. Fans included, and lots of space.


VGA out and 10Gbit NICs were worth the upgrade to the NT edition.

- 3 Bays that fits 5 HDD each (15 HDD Total) - Fans are pretty much quiet - Keeps the system cooled guaranteed!



- Simple to work with and setup - Solidly built, no flimsy metal nor sharp edges that come with other cheaply built cases. - Very roomy interior, leaves room for large cpu cooler and plenty of hard drives - Very good fans included - Quiet (especially considering all the fans running)
