xSeries 100

Processor speed in Mhz. Often the clock speed is expressed by a manufacturer in GHz (1 GHz = 1000 MHz). The clock rate is the fundamental rate in cycles per second (measured in hertz) at which a computer performs its most basic operations such as adding two numbers. There are more factors, like internal memory size, that influence a computer's actual response time.

The processor serie to which the processor belongs.

Processor is the central unit in a computer containing the logic circuitry that performs the instructions of a computer's programs.

Speed of the processor's Front Side Bus (FSB) in megahertz (1 million Herz). The FSB is the bus that transfers data between the CPU and the northbridge of the Motherboard. The maximum theoretical bandwidth of the FSB is determined by the product of its width, its clock frequency and the number of data transfers it performs per clock tick.

The CPU cache (Level 2 in megabyte) is a smaller, faster memory which stores copies of the data from the most frequently used main memory locations.

Total storage capacity in Gigabyte (1 billion bytes).

The maximum storage capacity of the hard disk in gigabyte (1 GB = 1 billion bytes).

Hard drive controller characteristics including type

The amount of memory measured in megabytes installed in the system's hardware

Type of the optical drive

Graphics memory is determining with the (graphic) processor, the graphics/video performance of your computer. Graphics memory is often shared with system memory so that it varies depending on the amount of system memory installed and system load.

The number of PS/2 connectors for keyboards and mice. Its name comes from the IBM Personal System/2.

USB 2.0 ports have a data transmission speed of 480 Mbps, and are backwards compatible with USB 1.1 ports. You can connect all kinds of peripheral devices to them.

Amount of power consumed by this model; expressed in watts. Typical values that manufacturers give are power consumption when off, standby/suspended mode, typical use, maximum usage.

Dimensions of the produkt (Width x Depth x Height) in millimeter.

Weight of the product without packaging (nett weight). If possible, the nett weight is given including standard accessories and supplies. Please, note that sometimes the manufacturer is giving a too commercial interpretation of product weight, by leaving out the weight of accessories and/or supplies.
