PR Newswire (US)
Workstation Configurable, the E-6610 Supports OpenGL Graphics,
Error Correcting Code (ECC) Memory and Ultra High-Speed SCSI Hard
Drives IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gateway,
Inc., the nation's third largest PC vendor, today announced its
most powerful professional E-Series managed desktop to date, the
Gateway(R) E-6610. It is designed for organizations that require a
PC with the speed and muscle necessary to take on the most
demanding applications, or for those that need workstation-class
performance. It is ideally suited for government agencies,
educational institutions and business customers that need
state-of-the-art graphics capabilities for professional 3D
applications such as mechanical computer-aided design, digital
content creation, video editing and visualization applications. The
Gateway E-6610 boasts an array of high-performance technologies:
the latest Intel(R) 975X chipset, the powerful new Intel(R)
Core(TM) 2 Duo processor, high-capacity SATA hard drives and RAID
configurability for enhanced speed and data protection. For
customers that need workstation performance, this powerful system
can be configured with OpenGL graphics, Error Correcting Code (ECC)
memory and ultra high-speed SCSI hard drives. "The Gateway E-6610
is designed as a maximum performance desktop with workstation
configurability," said Marc Demars, Gateway senior director,
professional desktops and displays. "Complementing these high-end
features is BTX technology boasting an ultra quiet dual fan cooling
system for improved reliability, making it one of the coolest
running PCs available." Maximum Performance Through the Latest
Technologies With Intel's latest 975X chipset and a choice of Intel
processors, business customers can choose the level of performance
best suited to their needs. The most demanding users will
appreciate the Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo processor, which delivers
exceptional multithreaded performance and seamless multi-tasking
for the ability to perform high-end tasks simultaneously. It also
delivers a 40 percent increase in performance along with a 40
percent reduction in power consumption compared to the Intel(R)
Pentium(R) D processor(1). The E-6610 features high-capacity SATA
II hard drives. Supporting RAID 0, 1 or 5, this robust desktop PC
allows businesses to use multiple hard drives for increased
performance or enhanced data protection. Workstation Class
Configurability The E-6610 can be configured to handle the
demanding needs of graphically intensive applications used by
engineering and scientific research departments, higher education
technical labs and architectural firms. Configured with an NVidia
Quadro FX 550 OpenGL graphics card, software developers, architects
and CAD/CAM engineers can develop and use sophisticated 3D graphics
on this system. Gateway also offers E-6610 customers highly
reliable ultra high-speed SCSI hard drives, which can easily handle
the high-bandwidth data streams of digital video and animated
visual simulations. Hard drive configurations range from 80GB to
500GB. Protecting the user's investment, Gateway's new power
desktop can be configured with up to 4GB of DDR2 Error Correcting
Code (ECC) memory, which includes special circuitry to test and fix
the accuracy of data as it passes in and out of memory. This
provides an extra level of protection for mission critical data and
applications. Leading Serviceability, Manageability and Security
Provide Peace of Mind In addition to providing the latest
technology, the E-6610 is based on a BTX design that more
efficiently cools internal components to deliver exceptional
reliability and longer system life(2). Cooled with two large and
quiet fans that provide improved airflow over traditional PCs, the
E-6610 will remain cool even when handling power-hungry technology.
The innovative, tool- free BTX design also makes it fast and easy
to access components without removing the front bezel or replacing
optical drive retention screws. With the addition of Intel(R)
Active Management Technology (Intel AMT), a major barrier to
greater IT efficiency and data protection has been removed. Using
built-in platform capabilities and Intel(R) LANDesk(R) Client
Manager, Intel AMT allows IT managers to remotely power systems on
and off and better discover, heal, and protect their networked
computing assets, even while PCs are powered off. The Gateway
E-6610 also supports Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2, the
industry's latest hardware security standard. Integrated onto the
motherboard, this chip can't be removed and provides enhanced
protection against data theft by encrypting files, authenticating
network access and passwords, and safeguarding email communications
and file transfers. Ideal for IT-managed environments, PCs with TPM
better protect critical applications and capabilities, such as
email, web access and local protection of data. Lastly, business
customers are safe from Internet-based threats with Symantec Norton
AntiVirus, which is included free for 90-days(3). Optional
Kensington lock and cable systems protect the unit and components
from physical theft. Availability, Sample Configuration and Pricing
