TAIPEI, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ASRock Rack Inc., a leading innovative server company, today announced its latest portfolio of AI-native infrastructure designed for the era of agentic AI. Showcasing at COMPUTEX 2026 (Booth No.: R0514), ASRock Rack is introducing the new 2UXGM-VERA2 system powered by NVIDIA Vera CPU. The company is also presenting its next-generation AI platform portfolio for AI factories, inference cloud deployments, and edge AI applications, delivering a unified vision for the next wave of AI computing at every scale.

Accelerating the Era of Agentic AI

The AI industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation as scaling laws move beyond model size into the era of agentic AI. This shift from “human talking to AI” to “AI talking to AI” has placed CPU execution on the critical path. To enable this next wave, ASRock Rack is introducing the 2UXGM-VERA2, powered by NVIDIA Vera CPU, a processor purpose-built for the age of AI. Combining custom-designed NVIDIA Olympus cores with high-bandwidth LPDDR5X memory and NVIDIA Scalable Coherency Fabric, Vera delivers a unified compute architecture that completes complex agentic and reinforcement learning workloads 50% faster than traditional CPU infrastructure.

“The AI industry is entering a new frontier where systems move beyond generating responses to executing autonomous actions,” said Weishi Sa, President of ASRock Rack. “NVIDIA Vera is the CPU for the age of AI, providing the high-speed execution layer that turns model reasoning into autonomous action at the speed of the AI factory. To power this next frontier, ASRock Rack is planning a comprehensive new lineup of AI servers powered by NVIDIA Vera, ranging from standalone CPU servers to scale-up AI servers incorporating NVIDIA HGX Vera Rubin NVL8 for every type of AI factory and data center deployment.”

Driving the AI Computing Wave at Every Scale

At COMPUTEX 2026, ASRock Rack is showcasing AI server platforms integrated with advanced liquid-cooling solutions from ecosystem partners. The company’s exhibit highlights the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, cooled with a double-rack-width liquid-to-air coolant distribution unit (CDU) for next-generation AI factory environments. Also on display are liquid-cooled systems incorporating NVIDIA HGX Rubin NVL8, including the fully liquid-cooled 2U16X-GNR2/DLC and the 5U16X-GNR2/DLC, which combines liquid cooling for CPU and GPU with sufficient airflow for flexible integration of other key peripherals. The company is also demonstrating rack-scale liquid-cooling solutions with in-row CDU for high-density AI deployments.

In addition to its rack-scale solutions, ASRock Rack will demonstrate a diverse lineup of MGX-based servers for enterprise and edge environments. This includes the 6UXGM-GNR2/DLC, supporting up to eight liquid-cooled NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs to accelerate enterprise AI and visual computing. Also featured is the 4UXGM-GNR2 CX8, a NVIDIA RTX PRO Server optimized for inference cloud environments. Bridging to the industrial edge, the 2UXGI-Thor, built on NVIDIA IGX Thor platform, showcases capabilities for Physical AI, enabling real-time sensor processing and functional safety for next-generation autonomous robotics and medical applications.

IronSpark is a new creative studio focused on animation, game development, and interactive experiences.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Storytelling has a new home in Birmingham, Alabama, with the launch of IronSpark Studios, a creative media company focused on animation, game development, and interactive experiences. Guided by its mission to build stories that engage, excite, and entertain, IronSpark Studios develops original and client-driven intellectual property and digital experiences.

Production is shifting away from traditional big studios and moving rapidly toward independent creators and agile, small studios. Founded on the belief that world-class creative belongs in Birmingham, IronSpark Studios collaborates with local creatives, businesses and organizations while working to attract animation, game development and interactive media production to the region.

“Our vision is to create experiences that inspire audiences, spark imagination and leave a lasting impact,” said Brass Bralley, co-founder and managing director. “We believe Birmingham is a place where creative talent can grow, collaborate and help shape the future of storytelling.”

The studio operates through three divisions—Animation, Games and Interactive—creating content for film, commercial projects, video games, immersive exhibits and emerging digital experiences.

IronSpark Studios is partnering with clients and intellectual property owners while developing original projects of its own, helping bring more animation, game development, and interactive media production to Birmingham.

“I’ve chosen to build many businesses in the Birmingham ecosystem, and the choice to build IronSpark here was a simple one,” said Mazi Rasulnia, co-founder and consulting partner.  “Birmingham has a vibrant community of innovators and creators, and IronSpark will be a great addition.”

Among those projects is its first original animated short film, The Purple Sky Peanut Butter Club. Based on a true story of heroism and sacrifice, the dialogue-free animated short explores the power of small traditions and their ability to provide healing through grief and transcend generations.

“The stories we create are meant to connect people,” said Wink Winkler, co-founder and head of creative. “Whether that’s through film, series, a video game or an interactive experience, at the end of the day, the story is at the heart of everything we create.”
