Desktop workstation Captiva CAPTIVA 99563 PC/workstation — no OS installed, no on-board or discrete GPU

Captiva CAPTIVA 99563 is a desktop workstation supplied without an operating system and without any on‑board or discrete graphics solution. The chassis and internal layout are intended for custom configuration: users can install their preferred GPU, choose their operating system, and tailor storage and peripherals to professional or office workflows where a preinstalled OS or graphics is not required.

Advantages

This workstation provides a blank‑canvas configuration that simplifies integration into existing IT environments and custom builds. Supplied without an operating system and without integrated or discrete graphics, the unit reduces software licensing constraints and allows selection of GPU hardware that fits specific workloads. The absence of preinstalled software also minimizes unwanted background processes and gives administrators full control over system image and driver deployment.

Suitable for

• Custom workstation builds where a specific discrete GPU will be installed
• CPU‑focused tasks such as compute, compilation, and server‑style workloads
• Enterprise or lab environments requiring bespoke OS images and controlled software deployment
• Upgrading or reusing existing graphics hardware to match workflow requirements

Key specifications

• Form factor: desktop workstation designed for internal component installation and upgrades
• Graphics: no on‑board graphics provided; no discrete graphics preinstalled
• Operating system: supplied without an operating system preinstalled
• Configuration: intended for user selection of GPU, OS, storage and memory to suit task requirements
• Use case focus: optimized for custom configuration, hardware flexibility and controlled software provisioning

How to use

Place the workstation on a stable, well‑ventilated surface and open access panels following the manufacturer’s instructions before installing components. Install the chosen discrete graphics card into the appropriate expansion slot and secure power connections from the PSU if required. Install the operating system of choice and then load vendor drivers for chipset, storage controllers and the installed GPU. After initial software installation, verify device manager entries, update firmware and drivers, and configure system settings such as power plans, storage partitions and network preferences to match intended workloads.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use a compatible GPU rated for the workstation’s power supply and cooling capacity. When deploying in managed environments, create and apply a standardized OS image and keep chipset and graphics drivers updated. Ensure adequate case airflow and monitor temperatures during sustained CPU or GPU workloads.
