Adamant Custom Threadripper 9980X 64-Core Liquid Cooled 256GB DDR5 1TB NVMe 10TB HDD RTX 5080 16GB 1600W

Workstation for heavy compute

This Adamant Custom tower pairs a 64-core Threadripper 9980X with 256GB DDR5 ECC memory and a liquid-cooled RTX 5080 16GB GPU. The sTR5 platform targets simulation, rendering and AI workloads that demand high core counts and GPU acceleration. Windows 11 Pro 64-bit ships pre-installed on the 1TB NVMe boot drive.

Build notes and common pitfalls

The 360mm AIO cooler arrives pre-filled and mounted to the CPU block, so no liquid handling is required. The 1600W Seasonic PSU uses standard ATX cables; verify each connector seats fully before first power-on. Route the front-panel USB 3.1 Type-C header to the motherboard mid-board connector to avoid losing the port. The GPU occupies three slots — confirm the Corsair 5000D FRAME side panel clears the card length.

Pre-order compatibility checklist

Ensure your monitor supports the GPU output standards you need; the RTX 5080 provides modern display interfaces. The motherboard offers four M.2 slots — one is used by the Samsung 990 PRO, leaving three for future NVMe expansion. Ten-gigabit Ethernet via the Marvell AQC113C requires a compatible switch or router port. Audio uses Realtek ALC4080 and ALC897 codecs for 7.1-channel output.
