New single-processor workstation from Fujitsu Siemens Computers with improved performance and housing design
Dubai, UAE - With its new CELSIUS M440 workstation, Fujitsu Siemens Computers is launching a mid-range model which combines the latest chip technology with significantly improved ergonomic features and the leading European IT manufacturer's 'Green' technology. The new chassis design of the single-processor CELSIUS M440 workstation (with Intel i955X chipset) reduces operating noise by nearly 50 percent to only 25 dB.
Surveys carried out by Fujitsu Siemens Computers revealed that having a quieter workstation is a top customer priority. Always eager to fulfill its customers' wishes, the German market leader has been focusing its attention on minimizing noise by optimizing chassis design and fan control.
"The development of noiseless technology in our computers is an important factor as a quieter work environment makes for a more productive one," said Susanne Lewitzki, Product Manager, Fujitsu Siemens Computers. "This is another example of our commitment to providing the best IT solutions to our customers."
The company also focused on improving performance while still being environmentally responsible. The new Intel i955X chipset allows the extension of storage capacity beyond the traditional 4 GB threshold. When used with Extended Memory 64 Technology, the CELSIUS M440 is the first single-processor workstation to offer genuine 64-bit support. Based on Fujitsu Siemens Computers 'Green' technology, the lead content in the mainboards has been reduced from 12 grams to 1 gram. The printed circuit boards are halogen-free, and the housing contains no environmentally damaging flame retardants.
The CELSIUS M440 was developed for all established workstation applications, including CAD and CAE, visualization and virtual reality, financial services and analyses, digital content creation, and software development. It is also certified for all popular applications used in these areas.
Technical highlights:
- New housing reduces operating noise to 25 dB.
- Pentium 4 and dual-core or Pentium D processors.
- New Intel i955X chipset with support for up to 8 GB memory and SATA RAID 0, 1, 5, 10.
