We put the Armari System through a suite of workstation benchmarks. For comparison, we pitted it against the Armari Threadripper and Intel Core i9 workstations in our previous head-to-head test, as well as the Scan 3XS GW-HTX35 and Armari Magnetar V25R-RA750G2, although not all of our benchmarks were run on these systems.
