note:
Multicore is designed to improve performance of certain software products. Not all customers or software applications necessarily benefit from use of this technology. Performance and clock frequency vary depending on application workload and hardware and software configurations. Intel numbering is not a measurement of higher performance.
Intel Optane memory system acceleration does not replace or increase the DRAM in your system.
Some functionality of the vPro technology - such as Intel Active management technology and Intel Virtualization technology require additional 3rd party software in order to run.
Intel Turbo Boost is based on maximum GHz for a single core.
