The NEC WI1510 workstation sets itself apart through:

Processing Power: Supporting the latest Intel Core 2 Extreme and Intel Core 2 Quad processors and up to 8 GB of DDR2-667MHz ECC SDRAM memory

Data Scalability: for up to 2TB of internal storage, coupled with integrated RAID 0, 1 or 5 for data integrity

Security and Administration: through Intel AMT technology and TPM integration

Performance Graphics: compatible with all NVIDIA Quadro Series professional graphics cards.

The NEC WI1510 will appeal to a wide range of demanding digital users through its performance levels that have never before been achieved by a single-processor workstation.

Extreme Speed with Intel Core2 Extreme Processors

The NEC WI1510 workstation offers users a wide range of the latest & solid workstation technology, including support for the Intel Core2 Extreme QX6700 processor, which includes four processor cores on a single CPU die. With 8MB of ultra-fast cache memory and an operating frequency of 2.66MHz, Intel's QX6700 processor ensures extreme performance for even the most demanding workstation applications.

Supporting a very wide range of processors up to the latest Intel Core 2 Extreme and Intel Core 2 quad processors further complemented with up to 8GB of ECC DDR2-667MHz RAM and up to 4 SATA II or SCSI high capacity hard disk drives the NEC WI1510 also gives extreme flexibility.

The NEC WI1510 workstation supports as standard Microsoft Windows XP Pro 32-bit or X64 operating systems along with the newly released Microsoft Windows Vista.

Easy Management and Improved Network Security

With the NEC WI1510 workstation, administrators can control application installation through the integration of TPM (Trusted Platform Module) technology on the WI1510, in order to avoid the spontaneous downloading of software. TPM technology also enables data on the hard drive, including temporary files and the swap file, to be entirely encrypted as part of a secure boot-up.

Equally with Intel's AMT management technology, administrators will also be able to manage all of their workstations with ease, either directly or remotely, being able to restart workstations even when they are switched off.

Ultimate Video, 2D & 3D Professional Creation

The NEC WI1510 workstation is able to satisfy the most demanding Video, 2D and 3D graphics applications, as it is compatible and preconfigurable with all of the latest NVIDIA Quadro FX professional graphics cards, including the Extreme high-end NVIDIA Quadro FX 5500 - making the NEC WI1510 the only single processor workstation available today to provide such flexibility.

Upgradeable with up to 5 PCI-Express / PCI slots, this workstation offers a real benefit in productivity as it enables users to work on several projects simultaneously and in record time.  It equally offers the option of integrating up to 2 PCI-Express graphics cards so that 4 monitors can be managed with no loss in 2D/3D performance.

With its ultra-quiet operation and discrete design the NEC WI1510 will also integrate seamlessly into any working environment that requires minimal intrusion, such as hospitals and graphic design offices. The NEC WI1510 has been specifically engineered and optimized to ensure efficient thermal flow and regulation inside the workstation, reducing system noise to a minimum for user comfort, whatever its configuration.

The NEC WI1510 is ideal for:

  • Digital Content Creation

  • Non-Linear Video Editing

  • Architecture, Civil and Mechanical, 2D & 3D  Engineering

  • 2D/3D and Web Creation and Desktop Publication

  • Financial & Multi-Screen Applications Support

"The use of multiple processing cores is now redefining computing power as opposed to the previous race for higher and higher Gigahertz frequencies. The NEC WI1510 workstation is one of the pioneers in this domain. X processor cores? But what for? For multi-tasking, optimising processes or even quadrupling computing performance! It all depends on your application. It is possible to dedicate one core to one task, however, for rendering, of course, it is better to make all cores available in order to reduce calculation time to a minimum." states Jon Green, Senior Product Marketing Manager at NEC Computers.

"NEC provides the flexibility you need with the NEC WI1510. So, what would you need? 1, 2 or 4 cores ? "
