Do not disturb: the ultra-quiet CELSIUS M440
New single-processor workstation from Fujitsu Siemens
Computers with improved performance and housing design
Munich/Germany, July 14, 2005 —With its new CELSIUS M440 workstation, Fujitsu Siemens
Computers is launching a mid-range model which combines the latest
chip technology with significantly improved ergonomic features and
the leading European IT manufacturer’s Green Technology. The
new chassis design of the single-processor CELSIUS M440 workstation
(with Intel i955X chipset) reduces operating noise by nearly 50
percent to only 25 dB. It can now be ordered for prices starting at
€1,379 (e.g. in Germany, incl. VAT).
Surveys carried out by Fujitsu Siemens Computers revealed
that having a quieter workstation is a top customer priority.
Always eager to fulfill its customer wishes, the German market
leader has been focusing its attention on minimizing noise by
optimizing chassis design and fan control.
The company also focused on improving performance while still
being environmentally responsible. The new Intel i955X chipset
allows the extension of storage capacity beyond the traditional 4
GB threshold. When used with Extended Memory 64 Technology, the
CELSIUS M440 is the first single-processor workstation to offer
genuine 64-bit support. Based on Fujitsu Siemens Computers Green
technology, the lead content in the mainboards has been reduced
from 12 grams to 1 gram. The printed circuit boards are
halogen-free, and the housing contains no environmentally damaging
flame retardants.
The CELSIUS M440 was developed for all established
workstation applications, including CAD and CAE, visualization and
virtual reality, financial services and analyses, digital content
creation, and software development. It is, of course, also
certified for all popular applications used in these areas.
Technical highlights:
- New housing reduces operating noise to 25 dB.
- Pentium 4 and dual-core or Pentium D processors.
- New Intel i955X chipset with support for up to 8 GB memory
and SATA RAID 0, 1, 5, 10.
- Hard-disk expansion to up to 1.6 TB.
- Entry-level to high-end 2D and 3D graphics subsystems.
- Windows XP Professional or Windows XP Professional x64
Edition operating system.
- DeskView system management.
