Business and education users needing AI-ready

This system suits offices and classrooms that require a compact PC with a 13 TOPS NPU for local AI workloads, high core counts for multitasking and fast NVMe storage. Buyers who need a discrete graphics card for 3D rendering, video editing or gaming should look elsewhere, as the platform relies on integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770.

13 TOPS NPU for on-device AI

The defining specification is the Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor’s neural processing unit, which delivers 13 TOPS of AI performance. This enables efficient execution of AI-enhanced productivity features, background blur and noise suppression without taxing the main cores or graphics. If your workflow does not use NPU-accelerated applications, the extra AI hardware may not justify the investment.
