Rutronik offers Intel Core i7+ and 3D XPoint memory speed in HDD PC designs

The Intel Core i7+ and Core i5+ Boxed Solutions, available from Rutronik, combine Intel Core processors of the eighth generation with Optane Cache modules in packages for notebooks and desktop PCs. 

The combination of powerful processors and Optane Cache modules accelerates systems with HDDs especially. It serves both in desktop PCs and notebooks as an alternative to the use of SSDs. 

The SSD modules of the Optane series are based on the new 3D XPoint memory technology, which is designed for lower latencies. 

In the boxed solutions Intel combines the processors with Optane Memory M10 series with 16 Gigabyte storage space.

The eighth generation of Intel Core-i processors operates at 2.8GHz (i5-8400) or 3.2GHz (i7-8700). 

With boost technology it can speed up to 4GHz (i5) or 4.6GHz (i7). The processors have six cores, six (i5) and twelve (i7) threads and a new 4K decoder and encoder. The series supports Dual-Channel DDR4 and integrates an Intel UHD Graphics 630 GPU.
