The position

Top-end consumer silicon, specced to your software.

The fastest GPUs made are consumer parts.

We spec them to your software, not to a catalogue.

You approve every part before it is ordered, and the person who specced your machine answers for it, this year and after.

Chicago pilot

Try the machine before the machine costs anything.

Chicago businesses: by arrangement, we bring a workstation to your studio for a week. Render on it, build on it, run your own models on it. If it does not earn the desk, we pick it back up and you owe nothing.

Desk-ready delivery · free in Chicago

It arrives working, not boxed.

  1. 01

    Delivered by the builder

    The person who assembled and tested your machines brings them to you.

  2. 02

    Set up at the desk

    Unboxed, cabled, connected to your monitors and network. Bring your software licenses and we install them before we leave.

  3. 03

    Running before we go

    You see it working at your desk, and any question gets answered on the spot.

Side by side
