Angstrom Microsystems, a leading
provider of high-performance computers, has developed a high-performance
workstation to address the graphics-intensive content creation market. Using
the AMD Opteron processor, the Titan64 Creator provides unsurpassed
graphics and audio capabilities.
Based on AMD64 architecture, Titan64
Creator is designed to provide cutting-edge 32- and 64-bit performance while
