Intel HD Graphics 630 is not enabled in the HP Z VR Backpack G1. All graphics for the platform is provided by the NVIDIA® Quadro® P5200 GPU.
NOTES:
* Multicore is designed to improve performance of certain software products. Not all customers or software applications will
necessarily benefit from use of this technology. Performance and clock frequency will vary depending on application workload
and your hardware and software configurations. Intel’s numbering is not a measurement of higher performance.
INTEL® Core™ i7 with vPro™
Intel® Core™ i7 with vPro™ technology is a selectable feature that is available on units configured with select processors, a
qualified Intel® Centrino® WLAN module and a preinstalled Windows® operating system. It provides advances in remote
manageability, security, energy efficient performance, and wireless connectivity. Intel® Active Management Technology
(iAMT) offers built-in manageability and proactive security for networked mobile workstations, even when they are powered
off* or when the operating system is inoperable. It can help identify threats before they reach the network, isolate infected
systems, and update regardless of their power state.
*Requires a Windows operating system, network hardware and software, connection with a power source, and a direct (nonVPN) corporate network connection which is either cable or wireless LAN.
NOTE: Some functionality of Intel® Core™ i7 with vPro™ such as Intel® Active Management technology and Intel®
Virtualization technology, requires additional third- party software in order to run. Availability of future "virtual appliances"
applications for Intel® Core™ i7 with vPro™ technology is dependent on third- party software providers. Compatibility with
future "virtual appliances" is yet to be determined.
