    G2 Digital launches quad-GPU 2U server

    UK-manufactured 2U Q-Power offers firms an on-premise alternative to premium cloud AI services G2 Digital, a UK specialist in custom-built rack-mount computers, has launched the 2U Q-Power, a high-performance GPU server designed for complex AI workloads and rendering. The system can accommodate up to four dual slot Nvidia RTX GPUs, offering twice the capacity of most conventional 2U servers and greater computing density within a rack. This is made possible by a custom chassis design that mounts the GPUs horizontally, parallel to the motherboard. When configured with four Nvidia RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Max-Q GPUs, the Q-Power delivers 384 GB of combined GPU memory, enabling organisations to run demanding AI workloads entirely on-site. This includes large language models (LLMs) with 70 billion parameters at full precision, as well as significantly larger models using lower-precision formats and quantisation.

    Chaos brings AI design exploration into Enscape

    Enscape 4.22 integrates Veras 2.0 more closely into the visualisation workflow, alongside new AI tools for design exploration and asset creation. Chaos has enhanced the integration between its Enscape real-time visualisation software and AI visualisation tool Veras 2.0, bringing AI-powered design exploration directly into the Enscape interface. The update aims to help architects incorporate AI more easily into their existing workflows, generate design variations and experiment with different materials and moods. Launching today as part of Enscape 4.22, the integration removes the need to bring up a separate Veras window, allowing architects to access AI rendering tools directly within Enscape. New AI video models also offer additional ways to visualise and communicate design ideas.
