Vecow ECX-3000 PEG Intel 12th/13th Gen Core Industrial PCs with GPU Support and up to 4 PCIe Slots

The Vecow ECX-3000 PEG series is a family of rugged GPU computers built on Intel Core 200S and 12th to 14th Gen Core processors with the R680E chipset. Each model takes an NVIDIA or AMD graphics card on a GPU power budget of up to 200 W, with up to four PCIe slots, four 2.5GbE PoE+ ports and RAID SSD trays. The ECX-3000 PEG series suits robotic control, smart manufacturing and in-vehicle computing deployments.

  • Discrete GPU up to 200 W: PCIe expansion for an NVIDIA or AMD graphics card on a GPU power budget of up to 200 W for AI inference.
  • Intel Core 200S and 12th to 14th Gen: R680E chipset with Bartlett Lake-S Core 200S or 12th to 14th Gen Core i9 to i3, up to 24 cores.
  • DDR5 and Front-Access SSD Trays: Two DDR5 5200 MHz SO-DIMMs up to 96 GB, plus two or four front-access SSD trays and M.2 NVMe.
  • 12-50 V DC with Ignition Control: Wide 12-50 V DC input with 16-mode software ignition control and a remote power switch for vehicle and plant use.
  • MIL-STD-810G and EN 50155 EMC: Operating shock and vibration to MIL-STD-810G, EN 50155 and EN 50121-3-2 EMC listings, rated -20 °C to 45 °C.

ECX-3000 PEG Description

GPU-accelerated vision at the edge has often meant a tower PC in a cabinet, with consumer-grade connectors and a power supply that does not like vehicle or plant DC. The Vecow ECX-3000 PEG series takes a different route: rugged GPU computers that accept a full NVIDIA or AMD graphics card on a GPU power budget of up to 200 W, inside a wall-mount chassis with wide DC input and ignition control.

Every ECX-3000 PEG shares the same core. The Intel R680E chipset takes Intel Core 200S processors (Bartlett Lake-S) or 12th, 13th and 14th Gen Core i9 to i3, up to 24 cores and 65 W TDP, with two DDR5 5200 MHz SO-DIMMs up to 96 GB. Six USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a 20 Gbps USB-C port, four COM ports, Mini PCIe, two M.2 Key B and one Key E socket with three nano SIM slots handle field I/O and wireless, and an M.2 Key M slot sits beside the front-access SSD trays.

The range is split by expansion and networking. The ECX-3800 PEG has four slots, two PCIe x8 and two PCIe x4, and the ECX-3600 PEG has three. The ECX-3400 PEG pairs a PCIe x16 slot with a PCIe x4 slot. All three carry four PoE+ ports and four SSD trays with RAID 5 or 10. The single-x16 builds use two trays: the ECX-3200 PEG has four PoE+ ports on RJ45, the ECX-3200MX PEG moves them to X-coded M12, and the ECX-3100 PEG drops PoE+ for two GbE ports and 16 GPIO. Chassis height steps from 79 mm on the single-slot builds to 142 mm on the ECX-3800 PEG.

ECX-3000 PEG rugged GPU computers typically serve robotic control, smart manufacturing, inspection and in-vehicle computing. A 12-50 V DC input with 16-mode software ignition control suits vehicle and plant power, and the series is rated -20 °C to 45 °C with its system fan, with MIL-STD-810G operating shock and vibration and EN 50155 and EN 50121-3-2 EMC listings. Wall mounting is standard, with VESA and rack kits optional, so the same family can move from a line-side cabinet to a vehicle without a change of software image.

Official Vecow UK Distributor

Things Embedded is an official Vecow UK distributor, supplying the ECX-3000 PEG range for UK vision, robotics and in-vehicle projects. Within Vecow's range, the RCX-2700 PEG series takes Intel Xeon and Core Rocket Lake processors for GPU builds that need Xeon support, and the ECX-3000 AI series pairs 13th Gen Core with a Hailo-8 accelerator for lower-power inference.

The ECX-3000 PEG is Vecow's discrete-GPU box line, so it sits among our rugged GPU computers and our industrial GPU computers. For AI inference without a card, the ECX-4000 series uses Intel Core Ultra with an integrated NPU.
