Realizing immersive 3D virtual worlds like the metaverse and digital twins requires high-performance graphics, AI, and network solutions. To address this, next-generation solutions leading the accelerated computing infrastructure field are rapidly emerging on the market.

Super Micro Computer (NYSE: SMCI) today announced the first availability of its second-generation NVIDIA OVX system.

Supermicro OVX servers are based on the new L40 GPUs in a 4U 8GPU server with dual Intel CPUs, 32 DIMMs, 8TB of memory, 12 PCI-E slots, and up to 24 drive bays. A variety of Supermicro systems also utilize L40 GPUs and support NVIDIA L40 PCI-E-based GPUs, including 4U 4GPU rackmount and workstation, 2U with up to 6 GPUs, 1U 4GPU, and multi-node 2U 2-node systems.

Supermicro's new servers deliver the breakthrough graphics, AI, and networking performance required to build and operate immersive 3D virtual worlds. Supermicro's OVX system is purpose-built to create and manage NVIDIA Omniverse enterprise applications at data center scale. It combines cutting-edge NVIDIA RTX-accelerated graphics and AI capabilities with high-speed, secure networking and enterprise-grade management.

“Supermicro is again leading the industry with the first-to-market introduction of our second-generation OVX servers,” said Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro. “The integration of the fastest CPUs and GPUs is essential to meet customer demands for low latency and high immersion. OVX servers are designed to create and run the most complex omniverse enterprise applications at scale.”

NVIDIA L40 GPUs will be integrated into Supermicro's current systems and next-generation systems based on Intel and AMD platforms. Next-generation Supermicro systems utilizing L40 GPUs include: 4U 8-GPU servers, 4U 4-GPU servers, and 2U and 1U servers and workstations.

Each Supermicro OVX server is powered by up to eight NVIDIA L40 GPUs, delivering the powerful performance of the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture to accelerate omniverse workloads. These systems will be available soon, combining GPUs with three NVIDIA ConnectX-7 SmartNICs, high-performance CPUs, and NVMe storage on a unified platform, the company said.

Next-generation AI applications require computing platforms optimized to create graphically rich and physically accurate virtual worlds. Supermicro OVX systems are focused on supporting continuously evolving industries.

“Supermicro OVX servers are compute systems built to create and operate omniverse enterprise applications at scale,” said Kevin Connors, vice president of Worldwide OEM Accounts at NVIDIA. “These second-generation Supermicro OVX servers are optimized to support the creation and operation of immersive, photorealistic 3D models, simulations, and digital twins.”
