Performance Claims
Performance Claims
Performance results are based on the date the systems are tested and may not reflect all publicly available security updates. See configuration disclosure for details. No product or component can be absolutely secure. For more information on security, click here.
Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel® microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark* and MobileMark*, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations, and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products.
