Processor
NOTE: Global Standard Products (GSP) are a subset of Dell’s relationship
products that are managed for availability and synchronized transitions on a
worldwide basis. They ensure the same platform is available for purchase
globally. This allows customers to reduce the number of configurations managed
on a worldwide basis, thereby reducing their costs. They also enable
companies to implement global IT standards by locking in specific product
configurations worldwide.
Device Guard (DG) and Credential Guard (CG) are the new security features that
are only available on Windows 10 Enterprise today.
Device Guard is a combination of enterprise-related hardware and software
security features that, when configured together, will lock a device down so
that it can only run trusted applications. If it is not a trusted
application, it cannot run.
Credential Guard uses virtualization-based security to isolate secrets
(credentials) so that only privileged system software can access them.
Unauthorized access to these secrets can lead to credential theft attacks.
Credential Guard prevents these attacks by protecting NTLM password hashes and
Kerberos Ticket Granting Tickets
NOTE: Processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor
availability subject to change and may vary by region/country.

Commercial Platform Windows 10 N-2 and 5 year OS Supportability
All newly introduced 2019 and later commercial platforms (Latitude, OptiPlex,
and Precision) will qualify and ship with the most current factory installed
Semi-Annual Channel Windows 10 version (N) and qualify (but not ship) the
previous two versions (N-1, N-2). This device platform OptiPlex 3070 will RTS
with Windows 10 version v19H1 at time of launch, and this version will
determine the N-2 versions that are initially qualified for this platform.
For future versions of Windows 10, Dell will continue to test the commercial
platform with coming Windows 10 releases during device production and for five
years post-production, including both fall and spring releases from Microsoft.
Please reference the Dell Windows as a Service (WaaS) website for additional
information on N-2 and 5 year Windows OS supportability. Website can be found
at this link: Platforms Qualified on specific versions of Windows
10
This website also includes a matrix of other platforms qualified on specific
versions of Windows 10.
Power
NOTE: These form factors utilize a more efficient Active Power Factor
Correction (APFC) power supply. Dell recommends only Universal Power Supplies
(UPS) based on Sine Wave output for APFC PSUs, not an approximation of a Sine
Wave, Square Wave, or quasi-Square Wave. If you have questions, please contact
the manufacturer to confirm the output type.
