The workstations will be running either one or two Xeon scalable processors, with support for up to 56 physical cores. The 7900 series will include up to three NVIDIA Quadro RTX cards, most likely the GV100 GPU. You can choose up to 3TB of DDR4 DRAM, and a whopping 16 TB PCI/NVMe SSD. Storage options will go as high as 120/96 GB enabled by ten 3.5 inch drives. Since this is Dell’s Flagship line it will support all the connectivity options.
For thermals, Dell says that chassis of its 7900 series machines will use a ‘smart multi-channel thermal design’ for advanced cooling.
The 7800 and 7900 series workstations will be available in May. There is no word on the pricing yet, but looking at the specs you can guess how high the pricing will be, and hey, it’s Dell.
