Overview / Introduction
Take total ownership of demanding professional workflows and high-frame-rate rendering with the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K & ASUS Prime RTX 5080 16GB Workstation Desktop. Designed around Intel's LGA1851 socket on the GIGABYTE Z890 UD WiFi 7 motherboard, this system pairs 24 hybrid computing cores with NVIDIA's GDDR7 graphics memory architecture. Housed inside the Fractal Epoch XL Black TG RGB full-tower case with pre-installed 140mm cooling fans and light-tint tempered glass, this workstation maintains low thermal levels during long rendering sessions, physics simulations, and media exports.
Key Features
- Intel Core Ultra 9 285K Processor: Flagship 24-core, 24-thread CPU built on Arrow Lake LGA1851 architecture, featuring 36MB Intel Smart Cache, integrated NPU for AI offloading, and clock speeds up to 5.70 GHz for multi-threaded encoding and compiling.
- ASUS Prime GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GDDR7 OC Edition: Professional triple-fan graphics card built on NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, featuring 16GB of ultra-fast GDDR7 VRAM for heavy 3D viewport rendering, complex geometry calculations, and AI acceleration.
- GIGABYTE Z890 UD WiFi 7 Motherboard: Ultra-durable LGA1851 platform equipped with Wi-Fi 7, PCIe 5.0 expansion slots, high-speed M.2 connectors, and comprehensive VRM thermal armor.
- 32GB (2x16GB) High-Speed DDR5 6400MHz XMP RAM: Dual-channel high-frequency memory kit tuned with Intel XMP 3.0 profiles for rapid project file loading and smooth multi-app multitasking.
- 2TB PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe M.2 SSD: High-speed Gen5 solid-state storage drive achieving sequence read speeds up to 10,000 MB/s for instant asset transfers, fast project loads, and minimal export times.
- 360mm All-In-One Liquid CPU Cooler: Triple-fan AIO liquid cooling solution engineered for efficient CPU heat dissipation during continuous full-load rendering passes.
- Fractal Design Ion 3 Gold 1000W Power Supply: 80 PLUS Gold certified fully modular PSU providing clean, stable power delivery and native PCIe 5.0 GPU power support.
- Fractal Epoch XL Black TG RGB Chassis: Spacious full-tower enclosure supporting E-ATX and back-connect motherboards, featuring 3x pre-installed 140mm RGB fans, tempered glass side paneling, and broad radiator mounting space.
Performance & Technology
Featuring Intel's 24-core Ultra 9 285K CPU and 16GB of GDDR7 video memory on the RTX 5080, this workstation executes multi-stream 4K RAW video editing, real-time Unreal Engine 5 virtual production, and heavy GPU ray tracing (Octane, Redshift, V-Ray) without system bottlenecks. Supported by a 10,000 MB/s Gen5 NVMe SSD and 32GB DDR5-6400 RAM, large scene files and media caches load into active memory instantly.
Design & Studio Ergonomics
The Fractal Epoch XL Black chassis combines high-airflow ventilation with clean internal layout routing. The GIGABYTE Z890 UD motherboard features built-in Wi-Fi 7 and high-speed Ethernet for fast network file transfers to local NAS arrays and studio storage servers.
Compatibility & Primary Workloads
- 4K & 8K Video Production: Smooth multi-layer video timeline editing, real-time color grading, and rapid rendering in DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, and After Effects.
- 3D VFX & Animation: Accelerated offline rendering and fluid viewport performance in Blender, Unreal Engine 5, Cinema 4D, and Maya.
- CAD & Engineering Simulation: Handle heavy parametric assemblies and simulations in SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and Revit.
- Local AI & Machine Learning: Run local LLM inference, Stable Diffusion image generation, and data processing leveraging 16GB GDDR7 VRAM.
Why This Product Stands Out
By combining Intel's flagship Core Ultra 9 285K CPU, NVIDIA's GDDR7 RTX 5080 GPU, 32GB DDR5-6400 RAM, Gen5 NVMe storage, and a 1000W Gold power supply inside a spacious E-ATX full-tower chassis, this workstation delivers a balance of computing power and studio reliability.
