MSI, a world leader in computer hardware, continues to innovate its workstation line with the Vortex W25 and updated WT75, WS63 and WE series of mobile workstations. The Vortex W25 is the world’s first 2.5L desktop powered by NVIDIA’s Quadro P5200 GPU.

MSI To Update Vortex Workstations

“The Vortex W25 is one of the smallest and most capable workstations on the market, we first created the chassis for powerful gaming performance with the Vortex G25, but we believe the innovative design will translate easily to those who need desktop-grade power in a small form factor.”

Andy Tung, President of MSI.

Vortex W25

The Vortex W25 is the first 2.5L desktop powered by the NVIDIA Quadro P5200 GPU. In addition to its powerful graphics card, the Vortex also comes equipped with the latest Intel 8th generation processors. The i7s with their six cores of computing power, is up to 30 percent more powerful than the previous generation in multi threaded tasks.  MSI claims the Quadro GPU provides up to 40 percent more performance than its predecessor. These performance upgrades make the Vortex W25 ideal for high-end 3D or VR tasks.

The Vortex W25 is kept chilly by MSI’s Cooler Boost Titan thermal solution which they promise will provide stability and ensure the best performance. Additionally, MSI is expanding its ISV Certifications in 2018 with the additions of Autodesk Revit, ANSYS, Autodesk Moldflow, and Dassault Catia certifications.

With its small size, the Vortex W25 can be hidden easily in the office. It is VESA Mount supported, allowing the compact PC to be easily attached to the back of monitors to save desk space though we imagine cooling performance would be negatively impacted. It also features a rapid disassembly design for a fast and easy way to remove the top cover without the need for tools. The dual NVMe M.2 SSD by PCIe Gen3/SATA SSD Combo slots, 2.5″ hard drive and dual DDR4-2400 slots are all easily accessible.
