Hi Eric,
Please contact Mic Grover at Cubix, micg@cubix.com, for assistance with this issue. I’ve never heard of it, but customer service should be able to help you solve this problem quickly.

Both part numbers use the 1200w power supply, so you’re good for power.

Hi Gabrielle,
The standard exhaust moves more air than the quiet fan part number does. It also makes more noise (about 10db higher) than quiet fan exhaust part numbers (which only makes sense – more air flow, more noise)

Desktop 4 will host up to 4x GTX 580 cards. ***make sure you order the standard exhaust fan part number, XPDT-X16-4-INT or -OSV for No. America***

The info I have suggests that PCIe x8 (40Gbps) bus bandwidth can get saturated quickly when running Resolve 8.x. If no Gen2 x16 slot available, I suggest going with new system. Based on specs for several 3rd party workstations I’ve seen so far, you could still use an Xpander for adding multi-GPU performance to Resolve 8.

When we’ve tested other types of CUDA-accelerated applications such as iray or v-ray rt 2.0 for photorealistic rendering, we’ve seen similar performance increases when working with high resolution/high polygon files.

I can confirm that we saw this last week as well. Good news if it stays on their website!

Keep in mind that heat is the enemy of all electronic circuits. Using the Xpander separates your CPU, memory, and disk components from hot GPUs and maximizes your new system’s life cycle.

Hi Joseph,
You can reach Cubix via the https://www.cubixgpu.com website or ph no.+1(775)888-1000. I would suggest looking at the Desktop 4, part number XPDT-X16-4-OSV. However, if you’re going to support more than one OSX machine, or other operating systems, you might consider one of the Xpander Rackmount 8 configurations.

Hi Everyone,
The answer to the dual Xpander Desktop 4 is a qualified “yes”. Most motherboard configurations running Windows XP or Win 7, or Linux, should be able to run a dual Desktop 4 configuration just fine. Keep in mind that a dual desktop 4 = a Rackmount 8.
