Higher Performance, Security and Energy Efficiency

The transtec PC SENYO 820 with Intel®'s updated vProTM platform offers performance gains of 40-percent and more with a simultaneous reduction in power consumption.

27.08.2007 – transtec has unveiled its vProTM PC just in time for the Intel® vProTM re-launch. The high-performance of the transtec PC SENYO 820 will especially benefit users who run CPU intensive applications. Intel® Active Management Technology and hardware-assisted, proactive security provides businesses with enormous savings.

The updated Intel® vProTM platform offers breathtaking performance thanks to the addition of multi-core support and the raising of supported clock speeds to 1333 MHz. In fact, the new vProTM PCs are 1.45 times faster than previous-generation PCs.

Benchmark tests on an Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo processor with vPro showed that it is 43-percent faster than an Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor 670 with HT Technology for digital photo editing* and 85-percent faster for creating video effects**. This makes the new transtec PC SENYO 820 especially attractive for multimedia applications, as well as for power-hungry Windows Vista™ and next-generation applications.

Intel® Core™ Microarchitecture provides contributes to increased performance coupled 40-percent lower power consumption. Additional savings due to decreased downtime accrue from next-generation Intel® Active Management Technology (AMT), which allows sysadmins to remotely to discover, diagnose, heal and update systems of a complete PC infrastructure from a central console. Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT) facilitates management in heterogeneous operating- and application environments and offers unlimited scalability. And last but not least the hardware-assisted, proactive security of the Intel vProTM Platform maximises PC uptime. It includes processor-embedded Execute Disable Bit functionality which reduces exposure to viruses and malicious-code attacks and prevents harmful software from executing and propagating over the network by proactively identifying suspicious code.

The transtec vProTM PC for Windows platforms is now available for 499 euro. Key features of the transtec PC SENYO 820:
