Engineering
Every Renderboxes chassis is designed in-house and built from the GPUs out. We have designed our own chassis since 2018, and in 2021 introduced our own PCIe daughterboard where off-the-shelf parts could not meet our customers’ requirements.
In the Nano Pro and Molecule Air, every GPU runs at full PCIe Gen5 x16 through the Renderboxes MCIO daughterboard, with no riser cables. The Nano Pro measures 52–54 dBA at 2 m with four GPUs, and the Molecule Air 55 dBA at 2 m with eight.2
Each system is configured to order with NVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwell, NVIDIA GeForce RTX or AMD Radeon AI PRO graphics, single or multiple, matched to the workload.
2 Handheld sound level meter at 2 m, workshop noise floor about 40 dBA. Nano Pro with four NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 or four NVIDIA RTX 5090; Molecule Air with eight NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Max-Q.
