The highly versatile, configurable platform harnesses the power of the AMD 
Ryzen Threadripper PRO Processor with up to 64 cores and 128 PCI-E 4.0 lanes, 
doubling the data throughput of the previous generation. The new workstation 
(AS -5014A-TT) 
(https://www.supermicro.com/en/Aplus/system/5U/5014/AS-5014A-TT.cfm ) 
dramatically boosts productivity for demanding professional workloads found in 
media content creation, scientific research, visualization, deep learning (DL) 
and artificial intelligence (AI), virtual or augmented reality (VR/AR), and 3-D 
modeling with real-time simulation. 

"When AMD's new processor is coupled with Supermicro's advanced workstation 
design and architecture, today's professionals can truly bring their 
productivity to the next level," said Vik Malyala, senior vice president, 
Supermicro. "It can drive up to four full-height, double-width, active cooling 
GPUs, double that of similar systems in the market, and supports up to 2TB of 
DDR4 3200 memory, and four M.2 slots for ultra-fast PCI-E Gen 4 NVMe storage. 
Also, with built-in 10Gigatbit Ethernet, and support for 25/100/200G NICs, the 
platform accelerates data-intensive workloads and transfer speed -- required 
for today's content creators, deep learning professionals, and engineers."   

"AMD Ryzen(TM) Threadripper(TM) PRO processors have been designed to set the 
industry standard for workstation compute performance," said Chris Kilburn, 
corporate vice president and general manager, client component business unit, 
AMD. "With the new AS-5014A-TT Workstation, Supermicro has designed a powerful 
and flexible platform, dedicated to maximizing the full spectrum of compute 
capabilities offered by AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors."
