Design Rationale

  • The i9-12900K gave the customer a great amount of single-core performance for modeling, and multicore performance for laser scanning tasks.
  • To ensure the CPU runs at full speed, liquid cooling with a 360mm AIO is recommended.
  • The customer wanted a stable motherboard with a good amount of desktop functionality.
  • The customer wanted to max the build out with 128GB RAM, and preferred save some money with last-gen tech.
  • The customer wanted a 1TB NVME boot drive and a 2x2TB NVME RAID0 main drive.
  • For heavy laser scanning workloads, we typically recommend the RTX 3090 as a professional-grade GPU isn’t necessary. At the time, the pricing on the A5000 made it a more sensible purchase than the 3090, and they were both 24GB cards.
  • The overall design of the build meant that a 1000W power supply was recommended.
  • We used our default mid-tower case to fit the build.
  • We used our high-end fans to ensure proper airflow and static pressure.

Customer Review

“Chris and his team were recommended to us based on their reputation and ability to provide a custom-built workstation to meet our data processing needs.

Chris worked with us throughout the process and delivered a laser scanning workstation that exceeded our expectations.

Excellent customer service and follow-up after the sale. I highly recommend Top Flight Computers and look forward to working with them for our next custom workstation.”
