Power Meets Portability with Our High-Performance RenderBEAST Workstation

Whether you need a device that can handle graphically intense architectural modeling or can power through military-grade training and simulations, the RenderBEAST™ has the power you need to get the job done. Our ruggedized, high-performance workstation outlasts the competition and is compact enough to take anywhere.

Not sure if we’re the right fit? Check out the top five reasons why the RenderBEAST is the solution you’ve been looking for.

1. Accelerated Real-Time Rendering

There’s a reason we call it the ‘RenderBEAST’.  Real-time rendering (the process of generating instant visual feedback of 3D scenes and animations) continues to dominate interactive professional applications.  Whether you’re designing, modeling, training in ANY industry,  users increasingly rely on the realism produced through rendering and ray-tracing to create ‘another world’ realistic enough to train in life and death scenarios.

RAVE designed the RenderBEAST specifically to accelerate intense rendering workloads for an extended period of time, ultimately providing end users a reliable, high-performing BEAST of a computer that won’t overheat, freeze-up, or leave you waiting for large files to process.

2. SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power)

If you think a desktop workstation delivering non-stop intense graphic renderings would require a massive tower….you’d be wrong.  The RenderBEAST uses approximately the same real estate as a standard shoe box. Roughly 10” x 13.5”, the RenderBEAST is small enough and light enough to be portable when needed.  Cranking out continuous renderings for some computers can result in constant fan noise and dangers of overheating, but the RenderBEAST is designed to take the heaviest workloads in stride, staying whisper quiet and cool to the touch even after a full day of intensive rendering.

3. TAA and Other Options

Goods that are in line with the Trade Agreements Act (TAA) must be produced, manufactured, or substantially transformed in a TAA designated country. In response to the recent uptick in programs that require TAA-adhering components, we’ve created a TAA-compliant version of the RenderBEAST.

Additional options and custom upgrades are also available for those with custom performance requirements. Our Product Development and Sales team have the expertise to serve as an extension of your team as trusted advisors – giving you exactly what you want and need.

4. Plug & Play Immersive Bundles

The portability and power of the RenderBEAST makes it ideal for immersive bundles.  

Our most popular immersive bundle includes:

  • A RenderBEAST PC
  • HMD of choice
  • Base stations
  • Controllers
  • Monitor and keyboard/mouse 
  • A custom foam pelican case with wheels and a telescoping handle

Why our bundle is better: When the immersive experience requires critical realism, professional users gravitate to Varjo’s XR-3 and XR-3 Focal Edition. While these HMDs come with a premium price tag, they also deliver exceptional quality.  Varjo continues to make game-changing strides forward in medical and military immersive training environments due to the stunning clarity of their HMD.  However, to maximize the clarity and rendering promised with the XR-3, the computer hardware MUST deliver.  Unfortunately, many try to balance the heavy cost of the HMD with a does-the-job commercial laptop.  While laptops can perform adequately, testing confirms reduced performance in comparison with the RenderBEAST.  When investing in the best HMD on the market, don’t skimp on the engine that powers it.  Make sure to power your HMD with a RenderBEAST for the best possible and most reliable experience. 

When launching the XR-3, Varjo chose RAVE’s RenderBEAST for the best possible experience…..An investment in better hardware can make up for a multiple of software sins.” John Burwell, Varjo Global Head of Simulation and Training

5. Designed by Professionals for Professionals

RAVE’s system engineers designed a small form factor workstation powerful enough to exceed performance from off-the-shelf competitors like Dell, HP, and Lenovo, and address common issues when professionally relying on a cookie cutter laptop or PC.  By integrating liquid cooling and overclocked performance, the RenderBEAST’s design promises to exceed expectations.  RAVE’s Elite Visualization status with industry experts like NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD pave the way to manage best-in-class components as well as mitigate supply chain and lifecycle issues.

“RAVE Computer’s RenderBEAST harnesses and optimizes the power of NVIDIA RTX GPUs for maximum performance.” Lisa Bell-Cabrera, NVIDIA Director of Business Development, XR

Speaking of professionals, RAVE Computer is proudly celebrating over 35 years as a successful small business.  Woman-owned and located in Metro-Detroit, RAVE has over 35 years of experience designing, optimizing, and building reliable compute solutions.  We specialize in computer hardware consulting, integration, and support.  You can find RAVE products in airports, ships, hospitals, medical research facilities, military training facilities, airplanes, museums, observatories, classrooms, and everywhere in between – including all branches of the Department of Defense.

Recently, RAVE tested the impact of combining vGPUs with multiple RTX 6000 in various immersive environments. The results were a Tower and 4U (RenderBEAST XLT and XLR) systems that could be directly utilized for training and operational purposes. We found that these systems could significantly reduce processing time and system SWaP consumption. We continue to research how to maximize the number of simultaneous immersive users on a single system without compromising the quality of the training experience. Furthermore, we’re investigating these impacts on real world terrain generation and photogrammetry use cases. Stay tuned for our findings, expected later in 2023.
