This is the most accessible seat at the family's flagship table: the entry tier of Intel's
Xeon W-2400 series paired with the full 96 GB of the RTX PRO 6000
Blackwell — no step up to a bigger CPU required. And it's engineered to run at
under 50 dB at full GPU load, so it disappears into a shared office
instead of dominating it.

What This Pairing Actually Buys You
An entry-tier workstation CPU next to the family's flagship GPU is a deliberate choice, not a compromise:
GPU · NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell
96 GB of GDDR7 — Nothing Held Back
The full 96 GB is identical to what the family's Xeon W9 and Threadripper PRO configurations carry — stepping down the CPU doesn't shrink the GPU.
Universal MIG partitions the card into isolated instances for concurrent workloads or users.
Blackwell 5th-gen Tensor Cores with FP4 accelerate agentic and generative AI at architecture-native speed.
4th-gen RT Cores drive photoreal, physically accurate rendering for design and simulation work.
CPU · Intel Xeon W5-2455X
Workstation-Grade, Without the Premium
30 MB cache, 3.20 GHz base1 — the entry point of Intel's Xeon W-2400 series, built for professional workstation duty, not desktop compromises.
EMIB packaging connects multiple dies in one socket — the same architecture family that scales up to 60 cores on larger Xeon W SKUs.
ECC memory and RAS features bring server-grade reliability to a single-CPU workstation.
Feeds the GPU, doesn't bottleneck it — for GPU-bound AI inference and rendering, VRAM capacity matters more than CPU core count.
Quiet by Design
Full GPU Load. Under 50 dB.
Internal airflow diversion is the whole trick — heat leaves the case before it becomes noise:

Front & rear I/O — official ABS product diagram for this exact SKU.
Front: 1× USB 3.2 Gen1, power button, audio/mic jack, and 4× 3.5″/2.5″ SATA hot-swap bays installed
(4 more optional — 8 total possible). Rear: legacy COM/VGA for lab and rack instrumentation, USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C plus
3× USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, dual 10Gb/s LAN (Intel X710-AT2) plus a dedicated MLAN management
port, and the audio/power connectors — a rear panel built for a rack room, wearing a tower's clothes.
Inside the platform — official ABS product diagram for this exact SKU.
The Gigabyte board underneath ships with one GPU installed, but the platform itself is rated for far more:
8× RDIMM slots on 8-channel DDR5, 5× PCIe 5.0 x16 slots (platform-rated for up to 4× dual-slot GPUs),
2× PCIe 4.0 x16 slots, and 2× M.2 SSD slots with only one populated by the 1 TB OS drive.2
Room to grow into, not just a spec sheet to grow out of.

Same GPU, Different Doors
Where This Sits in the Family
Every rung of this family's 96GB tier carries the identical RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell — only the CPU platform changes:
This Config
Entry CPU Tier
Intel Xeon W5-2455X
The Xeon W-2400 series entry point. The most accessible door onto the full 96 GB GPU in this family.
Step Up
Intel Xeon W9-3575X
Higher core-count Xeon W tier on the same platform and the same 96 GB GPU.
Alternate Platform
AMD Threadripper PRO
A server-pedigree AMD CPU alternative, also paired with the 96 GB RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell — compare options on this listing.
Scale Up
Zaurion Duo Aqua
The same family's dual-GPU tower for workloads that need more than one 96 GB card.
Why is this the most accessible way onto the 96 GB GPU tier?
The Xeon W5-2455X is the entry point of this family's Xeon W-2400 CPU tier, paired with the same 96 GB RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell offered on the higher Xeon W9 and Threadripper PRO configurations — the GPU doesn't shrink when the CPU steps down.
How quiet is it really?
Under 50 dB at full GPU load, via internal airflow diversion — engineered to sit in a shared office without becoming a distraction.
Does it come with an AI agent framework or local LLM pre-installed?
Not by default. OpenClaw/NemoClaw and a Qwen 3.5 27B+ local LLM package are optional add-ons configured at order time.
What is Phison aiDAPTIV+ and do I need it?
An optional SSD that offloads GPU memory to flash, reducing the VRAM full fine-tuning requires — useful for fully fine-tuning models larger than 96 GB alone can hold. Not included by default.
Is it eligible for government / public-sector purchasing?
It is TAA compliant and assembled in the USA, with compliance documents available for purchase review.
How is it supported?
1-year parts and labor limited warranty backed by ABS manufacturer support. As a Build to Order system, it is custom built and stress-tested after purchase.

1. Intel-published cache and base clock figures for the Xeon W5-2455X. GPU architecture features (5th-gen Tensor Cores, 4th-gen RT Cores, Universal MIG) are NVIDIA-published for the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell.
2. Slot counts and the 4x dual-slot-GPU rating are the Gigabyte platform's published capability on the LGA4677 socket, not a claim about this SKU's shipped configuration — this unit ships with one GPU on a single 2000 W PSU; adding GPUs would require a PSU upgrade.
