Lenovo Introduces ThinkStation C20 and C20x Workstation Desktop PC
Lenovo today announced the super-compact Lenovo ThinkStation C20 and C20x Workstation Desktop PCs which are aimed at the financial trading industry, where lots of processing power is needed in a minimal amount of space.
ThinkStation C20 redefining expectations for a small dual socket workstation. Meanwhile, the ThinkStation C20x offers an extra boost of memory and more powerful processors, making it the highest performance workstation of this form factor.
The Lenovo ThinkStation C20 and C20x which is a rack mounted workstation are powered by dual-processors and offers professional features like ISV certified drivers, ECC RAM and a tool-less chassis. The system also include massive RAM storage with 6 DIMM slots in the C20 and a mind-boggling 12 DIMM slots in the rack mounted C20x, in total delivering upto 48-GB RAM in the C20 and 96-GB in the C20x workstation.
Lenovo designed the ThinkStation C20 and C20x workstations with the ultra-compact, number-crunching performance needed to drive financial markets.
With space at a premium at standard traders’ desks, the C20′s small size — it’s 46% smaller than the Dell Precision T5500 and 31 percent smaller than the HP Z600 workstation, without compromising on performance.
Its size allows for more ThinkStation workstations to be installed in a rack or trader desk versus the competition. An analyst can also attach and run up to eight monitors.
Lenovo engineered many industry “firsts” to package high performance into such a compact design. New Lenovo-developed technologies include a patented slim, rotatable optical drive and a tri-channel cooling system.
The Lenovo C20 and C20x workstations offer:
- Choices of Intel Xeon 5600 Series processors
- Up to 96GB of DDR3 memory on the C20x with 12 available DIMM slots
- Up to two NVIDIA FX4800 class graphics
- Native SAS support on the C20x
- Certified for compatibility with SBFI Trading and Control Room Furniture
According to Andrew Plumbly, International Business Director, SBFI, Ltd, that the smaller size and reduced heat output of the ThinkStation C20 and C20x workstations will provide greater flexibility for users who have high processing requirements and are a great match for our products which will enable users to do more with the space they have.
