Cortex AI Ultimate X

Dual-GPU Power for 70B Models, Multi-GPU Training & Diffusion

Serve 70B-class models and split training across two GPUs instead of renting cluster time. Built around two RTX 5090s totalling 64GB of GDDR7 VRAM, a 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition and 128GB of DDR5, with CUDA, cuDNN and PyTorch installed and validated before it ships.

Why we choose these components

Engineered for Machine Learning Workloads

AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2

16 Zen 5 cores with 3D V-Cache on both chiplets and 208MB of total cache keep data loading, tokenisation and preprocessing from starving two 5090s during training.

2 × NVIDIA RTX 5090 32GB

64GB of GDDR7 across two Blackwell cards lets you shard a 70B-class model with tensor parallelism, or give each card its own training run.

128GB DDR5 5600MHz

Two 64GB modules stage tokenised datasets and optimiser state alongside 64GB of VRAM, so system RAM never becomes the bottleneck.

2TB + 4TB NVMe SSD

A Samsung 9100 Pro boot drive for models and environments, plus a 4TB second NVMe for datasets and checkpoints, so neither competes for bandwidth.

Arctic Freezer III 420

A 420mm all-in-one liquid cooler that holds clocks steady through multi-day runs, in a chassis sized to keep both cards breathing.

Built for Your Workflow

Local LLM Inference

Serve quantised 70B-class models across both cards through vLLM, Ollama or llama.cpp, at full context length and with no offloading to CPU. Responses stay fast, your prompts stay private, and there is no per-token bill.

Fine-Tuning & LoRA

64GB of VRAM across two cards is enough headroom for QLoRA on 70B-class models, or full fine-tuning of smaller ones with DeepSpeed and FSDP in Axolotl or Hugging Face. Run two experiments in parallel, one per GPU, instead of queueing them.

Diffusion & Image Generation

Generate at high resolution in ComfyUI, Automatic1111, SDXL or Flux with a whole card to spare, and keep video models such as Wan or LTX resident while you work. Deep node graphs, ControlNet stacks and batch renders never approach the memory ceiling.

RAG & Agent Pipelines

Embedding, vector search and generation run side by side on the same machine, so LangChain and LlamaIndex pipelines stay responsive over confidential documents that never leave your network.

Data Science & Preprocessing

Sixteen Zen 5 cores with 208MB of cache and 128GB of DDR5 keep pandas, Polars and feature-engineering pipelines in memory, so the CPU feeds both GPUs rather than becoming the bottleneck.

Optimised for Industry-Leading AI Frameworks

Why Choose Cortex AI?

Purpose-built for local inference, fine-tuning and diffusion work rather than adapted from a gaming range. Every Cortex AI workstation is professionally assembled, extensively tested and shipped with the CUDA data-science stack already configured.

Professionally Built

Hand-assembled by experienced UK technicians.

Stress Tested

Every build passes extended full-load testing.

Day-One Ready

CUDA, cuDNN and PyTorch installed and validated.

Fully Customisable

Tailor any spec to your exact model size.

WARRANTY

Tested for Today. Ready for Tomorrow.

Every Cortex AI workstation is backed by our comprehensive 3-year total warranty. We don't just assemble components—we hand-select and individually test every hardware part to ensure stability through multi-day training runs, while guaranteeing your system stays easily upgradable in the future as your models grow.

Before any workstation leaves our workshop it undergoes exhaustive full-load stress testing, and the CUDA stack is validated against a live PyTorch job. Everything is proven rock-solid, thermally balanced and quiet before being safely boxed and shipped to your door.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Cortex AI model should I choose?

Choose the Cortex AI for local inference and everyday assistant use, the AI Pro for RAG pipelines, diffusion work and light fine-tuning, the AI Ultra for single-GPU 30B-class fine-tuning, and the AI Ultimate X — this build — when you need multi-GPU training or 70B+ model serving. Not sure? Call us on 0207 096 5008 and we'll match a build to your framework and model size.

What model sizes will 64GB of VRAM run?

As a rough guide, 64GB across two cards serves quantised 70B-class models with tensor parallelism, runs 30B-class models comfortably on a single card, and handles QLoRA fine-tuning at 70B. Bear in mind a model has to be sharded to use both cards — a single 32GB card is the ceiling for anything that cannot split. Context length and quantisation both change the maths, so tell us your target and we’ll size it precisely.

Is CUDA and PyTorch already installed?

Yes. Every Cortex AI ships with NVIDIA's data-science driver stack, with CUDA and cuDNN version-matched to PyTorch and validated against a live test job before dispatch, so you're training on arrival rather than untangling version mismatches.

Can I run Linux instead of Windows?

Yes. We supply Cortex AI workstations with Windows 11, Ubuntu LTS, or a dual-boot configuration, with the CUDA stack installed and validated on whichever you choose.

How are the two GPUs configured?

Both cards sit on the X870E AORUS Master running at PCIe 5.0 x8 each, in a Corsair 9000D super-tower sized for the airflow two flagship cards need, powered by a 1600W Seasonic PRIME PX. Frameworks that shard across GPUs — vLLM, DeepSpeed, FSDP, Accelerate — see both cards; work that cannot split runs on one. We validate a multi-GPU test job before dispatch.

Can I customise the specification?

Yes — every Cortex AI workstation is fully customisable. We can adjust GPU, memory, storage and cooling to suit your exact model size and budget before we build.

What warranty is included?

A 3-Year Standard Warranty: 1 year of Collect & Return service, 1 year of parts coverage and 3 full years of technical labour support.

Do you offer delivery or collection?

Both. Free UK delivery is included, or you can collect for free from our Central London store at 48 Tottenham Court Road.
