With the announcement of Intel’s Xeon E processors, Lenovo has unveiled its P330 series of workstations, the P330 Tower, P330 Small Form Factor and P330 Tiny workstations. Both will be available in August, but pricing wasn’t immediately available.
The Tower and Small Form Factor machines offer Xeon E and Intel Optane memory, and allow for Nvidia Quadro P4000 GPUs. The two larger machines offer up to 64GB of DDR4 RAM and multiple storage bays in addition to M.2 NVMe slots on the motherboard. Both feature USB Type-A, USB Type-C, DisplayPort, HDMI and Ethernet.
