SYS Technology Introduces High-Performance 500MHz PC with
Intel® Pentium® III Processor

February 15, 1999 - SYS Technology enters the heated competition of PC desktop computers for publishing, multimedia development and business professionals with its powerful system, the Sys Performance AX-500P3. This robust, 3D-friendly system is built around the next generation Intel Pentium III 500MHz chip processor.

With the new processor at its core, this new desktop PC improves the users' ability to multi-task and multi-thread applications, which facilitates increased productivity. Animators, CAD users and gamers will benefit from the system's boosted calculation capacity, which can accelerate the math needed for 3D geometry up to 200% faster than a Pentium-based PC. With the Pentium III processor users can be assured of sharp interfaces, rich 3D graphics and true media playback.

This Microsoft Windows NT-based PC also enhances encryption, decryption and virus scanning, and will offer continuous voice recognition. It comes with 128MB of installed SDRAM, with a maximum of up to 1024MB. A Creative Labs 5X DVD drive with hardware decoding, Diamond Viper V550 video card, Diamond Monster MX-300 sound card, Altec Lansing ACS-48 speakers, and 512K L2 cache provide high-end performance for demanding entertainment and multimedia applications.

For high-end graphics, content creation, publishing users and early adopters, the new Performance AX-500P3's tower configuration is outfitted with eight drive bays for additional storage. A 19" (18.0" viewable) monitor, Microsoft Office 97 (Small Business Edition) and a 10GB 7200rpm hard drive complete this extraordinary package. Priced at $2,599, the Sys Performance AX-500P3 is backed by a limited warranty which covers the CPU and memory for six years; labor for five years; and parts for three years. Also included in the purchase price is one year unlimited 24-hours-a-day technical support and on-site service.
