Twelve years ago today, Eugenia Kuyda stood up onstage at TechCrunch Disrupt and presented a conversational chatbot called IO that acted as a lifestyle concierge to help people book restaurants and vacations along with other tasks. IO, the first product from her startup Luka, came before the deep learning breakthroughs that would eventually lead to

Product of the Week: NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Workstation Edition – Embedded Computing Design
October 19, 2026
It’s no surprise that we’re currently in the age of rapidly advancing AI, where professionals and engineers alike need workstation solutions that can keep up with the complex workload demands required by ever-evolving agentic AI, real-time simulation, industrial automation, and hyper-realistic graphics rendering technologies.
Enterprises and engineers benefit from workstation technologies leveraging a high-performance engine, enterprise-grade reliability, robust memory, and efficient AI acceleration, in order to support the aforementioned technologies.
Designed with safety and sustainability in mind, and with the goal of getting products to market quicker, is the NVIDIA RTX PRO™ 4500 Blackwell Workstation Edition offered by PNY. The solution features the NVIDIA Blackwell Architecture with 10,496 CUDA parallel processing cores, 328 NVIDIA Tensor cores, and 82 NVIDIA RT cores, each designed to manage different types of processing: general computing, AI & machine learning, and real-time ray tracing.


The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Workstation Edition in Action
The workstation’s 32 GB of GDDR7 with ECC and 896 GB/s of memory bandwidth is ideal for solutions handling large models and datasets, and it assists with moving data efficiently.
The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 features enhanced streaming multiprocessors (SMs) built for neural shaders, which provide increased processing throughput and neural shaders that integrate neural networks inside programmable shaders for AI-augmented graphics.
The 5th Gen Tensor Cores support FP4 precision for improved AI model processing and DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, which generates up to three additional frames compared to the traditional, working alongside the suite of DLSS technologies to multiply frame rates.
The 4th Gen Ray Tracing Cores supported on the workstation solution are built for detailed geometry, supporting photorealistic and physically accurate scenes and immersive 3D designs with RTX Mega Geometry.
The NVIDIA workstation supports next-generation video engines via the 9th Gen NVENC and 6th Gen NVDEC for video conferencing, video production, and real-time AI processing streaming workloads. Both NVDEC engines support 4:2:2 encoding and decoding for high-resolution video workflows.
Support for PCIe Gen 5 enables increased bandwidth and data-transfer speeds for reliable performance, and four DisplayPort 2.1b connectors provide high-resolution displays at up to 8K at 240 Hz and 16K at 60 Hz. Additionally, the DisplayPort connectors enable multi-monitor setups, higher color depth, and more.
Getting Started with the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Workstation Edition
For enterprise reliability, the NVIDIA workstation offered by PNY offers extensive ISV certifications, robust IT management tools, and enterprise-grade support. The workstation also supports NVIDIA’s NemoClaw, allowing organizations to build autonomous agents that protect privacy and enforce security guardrails to protect data.
