Compulab Intense PC ultrasmall form factor PC

The Intense PC is the latest in the range of ultrasmall form factor fit-PCs from Compulab. The Intense PC provides desktop class performance in a tiny, low-power form factor. The Intense PC is designed around the Intel Core CPU providing dual core 64 bit CPU @ 1.1 to 1.7 GHz with Intel HD Graphics GPU. The CPU is supplemented by up to 16 GB DDR3 RAM.

Intense PC consumes under 10 W when idle, yet for high workloads the two CPU cores provide up to 2.8 GHz of processing power with Intel Turbo Boost technology. The Intense PC provides a rugged and innovative thermal design that has been designed for fanless operation at the smallest possible form factor using innovative thermal design and advanced power management technologies.

The innovative design uses internal passive heat-spreader to eliminate hotspots and power regulation based on both CPU and case temperature monitoring. If the case temperature exceeds a threshold the CPU is underclocked until temperature is back within permitted range. The threshold can be configured in BIOS allowing the computer to operate safely in extreme temperature environments.
