ASUS ProArt Solutions with NVIDIA Omniverse
3D design is a team sport—and a very complex one at that. The artists, designers, and engineers on traditional 3D teams often use incompatible tools, necessitating time-consuming import and export processes. With ASUS ProArt devices and the NVIDIA Omniverse platform, you can now enjoy seamless 3D design collaboration. Omniverse provides connections and enhancements for 3D apps and creative workflows based on Universal Scene Description (USD), allowing you to unify your assets, libraries, and creative 3D applications. Explore more on ASUS Omniverse solution website.
ASUS GPU servers offer the key features that these companies need for 3D design. Dedicated CPU and GPU airflow ensures optimal, sustained performance. ASUS servers support a variety of graphics cards, including NVIDIA A40, allowing your design team to run different workloads and applications that best fits your needs. And with both horizontal and vertical scalability, your ASUS GPU servers can grow alongside your business.
For these creators, a high-end desktop PC with the NVIDIA RTX A5000 might be the best fit for their needs and budget. Our ProArt motherboard lineup provides the features that matter to you the most. We have options primed and ready for the latest cutting-edge CPUs from Intel and AMD and next-gen DDR5 RAM—not to mention PCIe 5.0 connectivity that’s ready to support next-gen graphics cards.
When creators use Omniverse, they need consistent and exceptional visual quality, no matter if they work in one large studio or remotely collaborate from several places. Whether you need a display with a high resolution, exceptional HDR capabilities, professional-grade color accuracy, wide color gamut coverage, or even all of the above, the award-winning ProArt display series has the perfect option to serve at the center of your Omniverse workflow.
The ProArt Studiobook 16 OLED laptop combines the innovative ASUS Dial, high-end hardware, robust cooling solutions, and an OLED display with exceptional color accuracy. It is powered by NVIDIA laptop GPUs including the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti — backed by NVIDIA Studio Drivers for maximum reliability and performance in creative apps. Another great option is the NVIDIA RTX A5000 laptop GPU, which has the throughput to help you quickly turn around projects, the enterprise drivers you need for worry-free performance, and ISV certifications that give you the confidence to work in high-stakes environments and mobile 3D collaboration.
ASUS is partnering with MoonShine, a VFX company based in Taiwan known for producing creative works spanning the realms from animation to virtual production.
