ASRock has announced that its compact DeskSlim X600 (AMD) and B760 (Intel) desktop PCs will now officially support NVIDIA’s RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell SFF Edition and RTX PRO 2000 Blackwell professional graphics cards. This update makes ASRock’s 5L-class compact desktops a powerful option for professionals requiring high-performance graphics in a small form factor.
Enhanced Professional Capabilities
The DeskSlim X600 and B760 models are designed with expandability in mind, featuring a PCIe Gen5 x16 slot capable of accommodating 200mm-long half-height (HH) dual-slot expansion cards. This allows for the integration of powerful GPUs like the new NVIDIA Blackwell series.
These compact machines also offer robust memory and storage options. They are equipped with four DDR5 UDIMM memory module slots, providing ample capacity for demanding applications. For storage, users have access to two M.2 SSD slots and two SATA III ports, ensuring fast data access and sufficient space for large project files and datasets.
Ideal for AI and Creative Workflows
By integrating the NVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwell professional graphics cards, the ASRock DeskSlim X600 and B760 are transformed into capable platforms for a range of intensive professional tasks. These include:
- Local AI inference
- AI-assisted content creation
- CAD and 3D workflows
- Multi-screen productivity setups
- Other graphics-intensive professional applications
The support for NVIDIA’s latest professional GPUs signifies a commitment from ASRock to provide versatile and powerful computing solutions that cater to the evolving needs of creative professionals, data scientists, and engineers. The combination of compact design and high-end graphics capabilities allows these systems to be deployed in environments where space is a premium, without compromising on performance.
The small form factor (SFF) nature of these PCs, coupled with the power of Blackwell GPUs, makes them suitable for various professional settings, from small studios to enterprise workstations. The ability to handle complex simulations, render high-fidelity models, and accelerate AI tasks directly on the desktop provides a significant advantage for professionals looking to streamline their workflows and improve productivity.
