Hardware needed to run ZenithAI
ZenithAI runs its AI models on your own server, not in someone else’s cloud. That needs serious hardware, mostly graphics cards with plenty of memory. Here is the minimum.

Common questions
What is the minimum hardware for ZenithAI?
Two NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 Blackwell graphics cards with 48 GB of video memory each, so 96 GB in total, plus 128 GB of system RAM and a 1 TB SSD. This is the minimum; more memory and storage give you room to grow.
Can ZenithAI run on a normal office PC or a laptop?
No. ZenithAI runs its AI models on your own server, and those models need large professional graphics cards. Plan for a rack or tower server that meets the minimum list on this page.
Which operating system does ZenithAI use?
ZenithAI is installed on Linux. The supported system is Rocky Linux 10. Your IT team provides the server and the ZenithAI installer sets up the application on it.
