NextComputing Portable Workstations Available with 2nd Generation Intel Core Processors

By DE Editors

NextComputing has announced the addition of the 2nd Generation Intel Core processor family to its Radius all-in-one portable workstations. By adding these latest processors, based on Intel’s newly redesigned micro-architecture, code-named “Sandy Bridge,” NextComputing’s customers can expect improved performance for processing-intensive applications.

Based on Intel’s 32nm process, the new architecture enables better performance at higher clock speeds while consuming less power than the previous generation Intel Core processors. These 2nd Generation processors also include an on-die graphics processing unit (GPU), allowing the processor to adjust its performance and power consumption depending on an application’s needs for general purpose processing, graphics, or both. In addition, features such as optimized Intel Turbo Boost and Intel Hyper-Threading technology offer intelligent core clock-speed throttling and multi-threading capabilities respectively, giving power users a performance boost.

NextComputing’s Radius series portable workstations feature Intel Core i7 processing, multiple full-length/full-height PCI Express slots, and multiple terabytes of internal and removable storage in a briefcase-sized system with integrated display.
