Tinygrad refreshes Tinybox with an 'old' EPYC CPU running DDR4 RAM to feed four AMD 9070XT — slaps a $11,000 price tag on a new 'computer for deep learning'

Tinygrad's new Tinybox supports four AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT GPUs The four-GPU configuration raises the G4 workstation's price to $11,000 Tinygrad retains DDR4 memory and PCIe 4.0 in its G4 platform Tinygrad has introduced a redesigned Tinybox workstation built around a server processor and capable of accommodating four AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics cards.

The device combines water cooling, a server-grade motherboard and a spacious internal layout intended for demanding deep-learning workloads.

Its standard platform uses DDR4 memory and PCIe 4.0, while an alternative configuration offers newer memory and connectivity technologies.

An older server platform anchors the design The standard G4 configuration uses a 32-core AMD EPYC processor with 32 GB of DDR4 memory and a 1 TB boot SSD.

Its motherboard includes a baseboard management controller, while a 1,700 W power supply supports the system's demanding graphics configurations.

The controller also has a VGA output, allowing administrators to connect a display without using the installed graphics cards.

The system also includes two 1GbE network ports and an OCP 3.0 interface for connecting compatible networking hardware.

The enclosure measures 12 inches wide, 19.25 inches high, and 18 inches deep, and weighs 42 pounds.

This size feels like a PC from the 2000s, but TinyCorps defends this dimension on X, saying, “Everything old is new again.

We're reentering an era where there are programs people want to run but can't because their computers are too small.” The spacious enclosure leaves ample room between the graphics cards, allowing better airflow to keep them cool under heavy workloads.

Customers can also choose the G5 platform, which uses AMD's Genoa generation and supports DDR5 memory alongside PCIe 5.0 connectivity.

The company has not identified the exact processor model in the supplied specifications.

GPU and storage choices determine the final configuration Tinygrad offers four AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics cards, alongside Nvidia alternatives including the RTX 5090 and professional RTX 6000 models.

The company says acoustic output influenced its graphics selection, prompting it to exclude certain alternatives because their cooling systems generated more noise.
