Lenovo has expanded its range of desktop workstations ThinkStation with three new models: PX, P7 and P5. All three have been designed from the ground up and feature Intel processors with up to 120 cores and support for high-end Nvidia RTX GPUs. In addition, they incorporate Design chassis with advanced thermal featuresas well as BMC functions for optimized remote system monitoring.
To design the chassis of the new ThinkStations, Lenovo has worked with one of its clients: Aston Martin. With this collaboration, Lenovo aimed to reflect Lenovo’s red design language, while offering the highest possible performance, as well as high levels of customization. Of course, in line with Aston’s design philosophy Martin. With this in mind, they have created three workstation models with a modular design, with drives that are accessed from the front. This facilitates both their maintenance and the operations to be carried out with them.
The work teams of both companies developed for this a chassis with a new and original design, without tools, which provides more flexibility to the owners of the workstations, and improvements in terms of ergonomics. The three-dimensional chassis grille is directly inspired by Aston Martin’s DBS grand tourer. This has involved the application of high-performance car design ideas to a desktop workstation.
Thus, it has redesigned air deflectors, and with larger 3D and hexagonal ventilation openings. This was coupled with Lenovo’s three-channel cooling system, allowing air to flow through the equipment without obstruction, and therefore the greatest amount of cold air entering the system, while evacuating as much hot air as possible.
The end result of all this is that the chassis maximizes the performance of the CPU, GPU, memory and storage. All three models will be available starting next May, and offer a three-year warranty, ThinkShield support, and updates to Premier Support.
Lenovo ThinkStation PX
The Lenovo ThinkSation PX Workstation is the most feature-rich of the three. It is optimized for racks, offering the flexibility needed for desktop and data center environments. Incorporates 4th generation Intel Xeon Scalable processorswhich offer a CPU with up to 120 cores.
They support up to four Nvidia RTX 6000 Ada Generation dual-slot GPUs, enabling the management and execution of highly complex workflows. They can accommodate up to 2TB of DDR5 RAM via PCIe Gen5 lanes, and include an 1,850-watt power supply and optional redundant power supplies.
Lenovo ThinkStation P7 and P5
The Lenovo ThinkStation P7 Workstation incorporates a new architecture, with Intel Xeon W processors, supporting up to 56 cores in a single socket. Also built to respond to workloads that are typically run and managed on servers or in the cloud, it is also rack-optimized so it can be deployed in diverse environments, both as a workstation and in data centers. It features a 4U form factor case and support for up to three Nvidia RTX 6000 Ada Generation dual-slot GPUs.
As for the Lenovo ThinkStation P5, it also has a new design chassis, and Intel Xeon W processors up to 24 cores. They are compatible with up to two Nvidia RTX 6000 professional graphics cards.
