AI Development Workstations by 3XS Systems
3XS AI workstations make starting your AI journey easy. Powered by NVIDIA GPUs, they provide data scientists with a cost-effective platform for developing AI models, prior to scaling up to datacentre-grade training hardware which is also available from Scan.
Designed for office environments, 3XS AI workstations are fine-tuned by our hardware engineers and data scientists for performance, reliability and low-noise. We provide a custom software stack that means you spend more time on your code development and less time configuring drivers, libraries and APIs.
Accelerated AI with NVIDIA GPUs
The choice and number of GPUs has the most impact on how long AI models take to train. 3XS AI workstations support up to six NVIDIA GPUs for the ultimate in performance. Explore the range of NVIDIA GPUs in more detail below.
