Item lore

We built the Darwin for the professional who has outgrown everything a consumer workstation can offer.

Named after Charles Darwin the scientist who redefined our understanding of complexity the Darwin is built on AMD's professional Threadripper platform. The Ryzen Threadripper 9960X brings 24 cores and 48 threads of Zen 5 architecture to workloads that would overwhelm any consumer processor machine learning, scientific simulation, large-scale rendering, CUDA development, and multi-threaded production pipelines that demand every core at full sustained load. Paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, 128GB DDR5, 4TB NVMe primary storage, and 60TB of additional storage capacity on a 1600W platform. Ships with POP!_OS Linux pre-installed the professional's choice for CUDA workloads, ML frameworks, and scientific computing.

Backed by our 5-year warranty. Hand-assembled by us 
in Secunda. Zero bloatware.

// Darwin and Edison use CPU inference for the 30B LLM row (16GB of VRAM is not enough for Q8 weights). Newton through Einstein use full GPU inference. Cinebench 2024 nT shows the published multi-core score for the processor (24 cores for Darwin and Edison, 64 cores for Hawking and Einstein). Every other row is an estimate from Brutech's own performance index, not a performance guarantee.
