Wootware Dual RTX 5090 AI Workstation: Unleashing the Future of Machine Learning

Introducing Wootware's recommended setup for the ultimate AI workstation - a monster of a machine ready to run local AI models and help speed up your workflow.

Running local AI models can be a challenge for anyone looking to start tinkering with them, but the requirements don't have to be daunting. DeepSeek's R1 for example comes in various model sizes requiring as little as 3.9GB of GPU memory, or as much as 1.5TB spread across multiple systems and GPUs.

Two NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs are ideally suited to run the DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B quantised model consuming around 46GB of VRAM, and there are similar models available from OpenAI, Google, Facebook, and Perplexity that will all fit into the VRAM budget of a dual-GPU workstation like the one we are recommending here.

The Heart of the Beast: Dual Zotac GeForce RTX 5090 SOLID OC

At the core of this AI workstation lies a formidable duo of Zotac GeForce RTX 5090 SOLID OC graphics cards. Each card is a titan of performance, boasting an incredible 32GB of GDDR7 memory and built upon NVIDIA's revolutionary Blackwell architecture.

This dual-GPU configuration provides an unprecedented level of parallel computing power, dramatically accelerating every stage of your AI workflow, from model development to inference and data analysis. With this immense graphical and computational power at your disposal, you can tackle larger datasets, build more complex models, and unlock new frontiers in machine learning, generative AI, and scientific research.

Enterprise-Grade Stability and Scalability: ASUS PRO WS WRX90E-SAGE SE

The foundation of this AI powerhouse is the ASUS PRO WS WRX90E-SAGE SE motherboard. This enterprise-class motherboard is engineered for professionals who demand unwavering stability, reliability, and expandability.

With support for up to seven full-length PCIe 5.0 x16 slots (with a compatible Threadripper Pro CPU), you have the freedom to scale your system with additional GPUs, high-speed storage, or other specialised hardware.

The motherboard also features server-grade components, advanced thermal design, and comprehensive remote management capabilities, making it the ideal choice for high-value AI deployments that require 24/7 operation and easy maintenance.

Limitless Data Handling: 192GB G.Skill G5 Neo DDR5 ECC Registered Memory

Large-scale AI models and massive datasets require an abundance of high-speed memory. This workstation is equipped with 192GB of G.Skill G5 Neo DDR5 ECC Registered memory with ECC (Error-Correcting Code) protection, which provides an extra layer of data integrity, safeguarding against memory errors that can lead to interruptions and corrupted results.

This level of reliability is crucial for business-critical applications and long-running experiments, giving you the confidence to push the boundaries of your research and development.

For the first time, error-correcting memory is also as fast as its desktop counterpart. G.Skill has validated their kit to hit 6000 MHz on compatible motherboards, and AMD continually updates their AGESA firmware to improve platform stability with such large amounts of fast memory.

Blazing-Fast Storage: XPG MARS 980 BLADE 2TB PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD

In the world of AI, storage speed is paramount. The XPG MARS 980 BLADE 2TB PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD delivers breathtaking read and write speeds of up to 14,000 MB/s and 13,000 MB/s, respectively.

This means that importing enormous datasets, loading large models, and saving checkpoints are accomplished in a fraction of the time compared to previous-generation storage solutions.

The PCIe 5.0 interface ensures that you are leveraging the fastest storage technology available, providing a future-proof solution that can keep pace with the ever-increasing demands of AI and machine learning.

Stable and Silent Power: Super Flower Leadex Platinum 2000W

A system of this calibre demands a power supply that can deliver clean, stable, and efficient power. The Super Flower Leadex Platinum 2000W is a platinum-rated, fully modular power supply that is more than capable of handling the demands of the dual RTX 5090s and the Threadripper Pro processor.

It has a high 80-plus efficiency rating ensures that most power is not wasted as heat, and the modular design allows for clean cable management and optimal airflow.

This power supply provides the peace of mind that comes with knowing your high-performance components are receiving the stable power they need for reliable, long-term operation.

Advanced Cooling with Live Monitoring: Corsair iCUE H170i ELITE LCD XT 420mm

Keeping high-performance components cool is essential for maintaining peak performance and longevity. AMD's Threadripper Pro CPUs can regularly consume 350W of power, which makes them a challenge to cool in certain environments.

The Corsair iCUE H170i ELITE LCD XT 420mm is a premium all-in-one liquid CPU cooler that provides exceptional thermal performance for high-end desktop processors, even under the most demanding workloads.

The large 420mm radiator and high-performance fans ensure that the Threadripper Pro processor remains cool and quiet, while the integrated LCD display allows for real-time monitoring of key system statistics. This advanced cooling solution is crucial and helps to ensure that your hardware operates in optimal conditions.

Intelligent Design for Professional Hardware: Antec FLUX PRO E-ATX Chassis

All of these high-performance components are housed in the Antec FLUX PRO E-ATX Full Tower chassis. This case is meticulously designed to provide maximum airflow, robust filtration, and ample space for professional-grade multi-GPU installations.
