Windows 11 Pro

Microsoft Windows 11 Pro is designed for business professionals and streamlining productivity. Starting with navigation, your essential apps and files are accessible from a variety of intuitive points including the navigation center, an updated Start menu, and your taskbar. Meeting controls and file sharing can be managed directly from the taskbar, use Snap Groups to arrange and revisit frequently used apps. Easily manage your cloud storage, syncing, and updates as Windows 11 works much like the Windows 10 environment you already know. Of course security is a top priority for every business and professional, Windows 11 Pro integrates hardware and software technologies like data encryption, malware protection, and isolation techniques to ensure everything stays secure, even on remote PCs.

Solid State Drive

More reliable and significantly faster than traditional spinning-platter hardrives, solid state drives work more like a large flash drive giving you quick access to your data. With no moving parts generating heat, solid state drives use less power and keep your system cooler which helps reduce component failure. Light weight and durable, solid state drives are often found in portable devices since they are less prone to travel damage and accidents like being dropped.

DDR5 RAM

As with most upgrades, the transition from DDR4 to DDR5 is about improving performance. This is a major enhancement in that it enables four times the capacity, up to 512GB DIMM and the ability of its predecessor, DDR4, which maxed at 128GB DIMM.

DDR form factors designate what they are used for. The DIMM form factor is used in desktop systems while the SO-DIMM form factor is used for laptops and all-in-one computers because of its slim profile.

Double Data Rate, which is the DDR in DDR5, tells us something about the rate of data transfer in a given type of memory. DDR5 also offers a much greater range of frequencies, sometimes called bandwidth, compared to DDR4. This translates to faster data transfer rates with DDR5; more than 80 percent faster according to some reports. It also requires less energy so it is more power efficient. The more capacity and the faster the speed, the better your memory is able to keep up with today's multi-core processors.

The first number, as in DDR5, tells us the generation of the memory. DDR4 was the previous generation, DDR5 is the current generation. The second numeric value as in DDR5-4800, DDR5-5200, or DDR4-1600, or DDR4-2666 is the speed. Memory type and speed must be matched to the requirements of your computer.

NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 3080 Ti

The RTX 3080 Ti is your GPU super power whatever the challenge, work or play. Specs include 12 GB GDDR6X memory, a 1.37GHz base clock, 1.67GHz boost clock, and 10240 CUDA cores. The RTX 3080 Ti also features NVIDIA Ansel so you can capture 360 degree HD in-game highlights and stream them live or share them as videos or still images. NVIDIA Reflex gives you the most responsiveness and the lowest latency. And it's packed with other great features like, DirectX 12 Ultimate, NVIDIA G-Sync, game-ready drivers, and more.

Smart Cache

With Intel Smart Cache you benefit from increased data access because the cache is shared between the cores from a single access point and optimized by workload demand. That means your system is making maximum use of its resources, enhancing multi-threading, and reducing storage redundancy.

Intel Optane Memory Supported

When combined with the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver, this Intel Optane, manages multiple storage tiers and makes sure your most frequently used data is stored on the fastest tier. This helps to speed up system responsiveness and performance. Intel Optane Memory is a non-volatile memory that requires specific hardware and software configuration.

Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 3.0

Turbo Boost 3.0 helps optimize performance to its highest state by targeting the best performing processor cores and increasing frequency based on demand. In addition, Turbo Boost 3.0 uses several algorithms working together to ensure power and temperature stability and energy efficiency.

Intel Thread Director

This is innovative efficiency for every task. Intel Thread Director puts the right application thread on the right core delivering intelligent, powerful real-time optimized performance per watt. No matter the need, no matter your task from gaming and entertainment to work day requirements, you've got advanced core performance to do it all.

Intel Deep Learning Boost

Even more great technology for AI users. Deep Learning Boost enhances AI deep learning inference performance. Leave it to Intel to be on the cutting edge with a new Vector Neural Network Instruction amping Intel processor power features.

Intel's hyper-threading technology means you'll get peak performance for your multithreaded applications thanks to higher processing throughput. To put it simply, each core of the processor is capable of working on multiple tasks at the same time.

Intel® Speed Shift

Responsiveness is super fast with Intel Speed Shift. Power efficiency and performance are improved as hardware controlled P-states enable the processor to quickly determine the best operating frequency and voltage to maximize performance.

Intel Hyper-Threading Technology

Intel's hyper-threading technology means you'll get peak performance for your multithreaded applications thanks to higher processing throughput. To put it simply, each core of the processor is capable of working on multiple tasks at the same time.

Intel Virtualization Technology

Consolidates multiple environments into a single server or PC. It provides greater user flexibility that can help reduce costs, improve security, and increase resiliency regarding contingency planning.

Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O

This VT-d technology takes VT-x capability a step further by providing support for I/O device virtualization helping to improve device performance. IT managers can benefit from improved system security and reliability, reduced downtime, and better use of data center resources.

Extended Page Tables

Boosting memory for demanding virtualization applications, this hardware optimization, also known as Second Level Address Translation (SLAT), helps reduce power consumption and its associated costs while also aiding battery life.

Intel 64

Take advantage of 64-bit computing when using 64-bit compatible software. This architecture enables systems to access more than 4GB of virtual and physical memory. Also known as EM64T, it is fully compatible with 32-bit operating systems giving you the flexibility to upgrade to a 64-bit OS when ever you're ready. Intel's 64 architecture works on servers, workstations, desktops, and mobile platforms.

Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology

Now get even more performance enhancing, energy conserving benefits from Intel. With SpeedStep technology, your processor simultaneously switches voltage and frequency to high or low levels depending on processor load. Enhanced SpeedStep technology performs voltage and frequency changes separately so the system performs better with reduced latency due to system unavailability.

Thermal Monitoring Technologies

This feature is designed to protect the processor in the event of unusual circumstances such as cooling fan failure which can cause damage if internal chassis temperatures become higher than normal. It works by reducing the processor's power consumption if the programmed thermal temperature is exceeded.

Intel AES-NI

Advance Encryption Standard New Instructions AES-NI, is an encryption standard used by the U.S. government since 2001 and now is commonly used in software to protect network traffic, personal data, and corporate IT infrastructure. Intel processors use AES in addition to a set of six new instructions to enable hardware to do some of the work of AES, thereby accelerating its execution by three to 10 times compared with relying solely on software.

Intel Secure Key

Intel Secure Key is a feature designed to keep your data and personal information safe by strengthening encryption capability via a digital random number generator.
