Intel NUC 12 Pro Kit NUC12WSHi3

EXPERT FEATURES

Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d)

• Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) continues from the existing support for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium® processor (VT-i) virtualization adding new support for I/O-device virtualization.
• Intel VT-d can help end users improve security and reliability of the systems and also improve performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments.

Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x)

• Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platforms.
• It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions.

Intel® AES New Instructions

• Intel® AES New Instructions (Intel® AES-NI) are a set of instructions that enable fast and secure data encryption and decryption.
• AES-NI are valuable for a wide range of cryptographic applications, for example: applications that perform bulk encryption/decryption, authentication, random number generation, and authenticated encryption.

Intel® ME Firmware Version

• Intel® Management Engine Firmware (Intel® ME FW) uses built-in platform capabilities and management and security applications to remotely manage networked computing assets out-of-band.

Max Turbo Frequency

• Max Turbo Frequency is the maximum single-core frequency at which the processor is capable of operating using Intel® Turbo Boost Technology and, if present, Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 and Intel® Thermal Velocity Boost.
• Frequency is typically measured in gigahertz (GHz), or billion cycles per second.

Intel® HD Audio Technology

• Intel® High Definition Audio (Intel® HD Audio) is capable of playing back more channels at higher quality than previous integrated audio formats.
• In addition, Intel® HD Audio has the technology needed to support the latest and greatest audio content.

Integrated Graphics

• Integrated graphics allow for incredible visual quality, faster graphic performance and flexible display options without the need for a separate graphics card.

Intel® Optane™ Memory Supported

• Intel® Optane™ memory is a revolutionary new class of non-volatile memory that sits in between system memory and storage to accelerate system performance and responsiveness.
• When combined with the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Driver, it seamlessly manages multiple tiers of storage while presenting one virtual drive to the OS, ensuring that data frequently used resides on the fastest tier of storage. Intel® Optane™ memory requires specific hardware and software configuration.

Intel® Platform Trust Technology (Intel® PTT)

• Intel® Platform Trust Technology (Intel® PTT) is a platform functionality for credential storage and key management used by Windows 8* and Windows® 10.
• Intel® PTT supports BitLocker* for hard drive encryption and supports all Microsoft requirements for firmware Trusted Platform Module (fTPM) 2.0.
