Available with NVIDIA Iray (for Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, and Rhino), Chaos V-Ray (3ds Max and Maya), or SOLIDWORKS Visualize, the BOXX VCA is configurable with up to eight dual-width, NVIDIA Quadro GPUs.

Administrators can use the 10 GigE or 1 GigE connection to attach APEXX 8R to their company network. The VCA Certified Solution also includes out-of-band control over IPMI, so administrators can manage and monitor each over Ethernet, even if the system is powered off.
