Press Release:

 

NEW DELL DESKTOPS HELP BOOST PERFORMANCE, RELIABILITY AND CAN HELP REDUCE DEPLOYMENT COST

 

Lead-Free Chassis Advance Drive toward EU RoHS Compliance

 

Singapore, June 7, 2005

 

DellTM today announced two new OptiPlexTM products designed to enhance the deployment flexibility, performance and reliability of the world's best-selling corporate desktop line1.

 

The company's OptiPlex GX520 and GX620 systems introduced today also take steps toward compliance with the European Union (EU) Restriction on the use of certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive by featuring lead-free2 power supplies, motherboards and chassis.

 

"The OptiPlex GX520 and GX620 underscore Dell's commitment to directly address real customer needs, be a leader in global environmental standards and support relevant product innovation," said Ho Lye Sum, Country Manager, Dell Singapore Private Limited. "The new BTX chassis family supports Dell Hyper Cool technology, dual-core processors, lead-free motherboards and components, as well as new security features that help enable customers to protect their investment."

 

Dell plans to meet RoHS requirements before the July 2006 deadline. The directive requires that electronics products shipped in the EU eliminate or minimize several chemical compounds, including lead. Dell's Restricted Materials Program prohibits other restricted materials, like cadmium. In addition, Dell already complies with international environmental standards such as GreenPC and Energy Star. 

 .

Deployment Flexibility, New Chassis, Latest Technology

 

The OptiPlex GX520 and GX620 also give customers more flexibility to deploy systems based on specific needs. Customers can choose from seven chassis between the two products, including mini-tower, desktop, small and ultra-small (GX620) form factors that offer extensive expandability options. To help make deployments easy and cost effective, the systems share a single software image across all chassis.

 

The new small form factor chassis can be installed behind an innovative flat-panel monitor for an all-in-one, "zero-footprint" system that maximizes desk space.

 

The OptiPlex GX520 addresses the needs of the mainstream performance user who requires essential, relevant technology for productivity applications. The system is based on the Intel 945G chipset designed to deliver enhanced performance with new 64-bit3 capable processors, Graphics Media Accelerator 950 (GMA950) and Execute Disable Bit (XD). The GMA950 can provide an enhanced visual experience with up to approximately two times the performance of previous graphics solutions4. The new graphics capabilities help enable future support for the Microsoft®  operating system code-named "Longhorn," scheduled for release next year. XD is a security feature that can help protect systems by preventing certain classes of viruses5.

 

The OptiPlex GX620 is designed for users who need investment protection and maximum productivity throughout the life of the system. The GX620 shares the GX520's features, but is designed to provide better expandability and performance options. The system also features Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2 security technology to help ensure only authorized systems access network data and resources. Dell anticipates that the GX620 will support factory installation of Microsoft Windows®  XP Professional x64 operating system, as well as dual-core processors, in the next few months.

 

Continuing Commitment to Reliability, Stability and Money-Saving Services

 

The integration of BTX design specifications and Dell HyperCoolTM technology can contribute to reliability by enabling systems to run at cooler temperatures with less fan noise. The new chassis allow tool-less access to internal components, making it easy for customers to service their systems. The GX520 and GX620 also feature Dell DirectDetectTM, a diagnostic tool that is designed to identify system status. Four LED lights located on the front of the chassis can help Information Technology (IT) personnel quickly identify 16 system health indicators during startup.
