Performance varies by use, configuration and other factors.

Performance results are based on testing as of dates shown in configurations and may not reflect all publicly available updates. See configuration disclosure for details. No product or component can be absolutely secure.

Performance may vary based on the specific game title and server configuration.

Intel optimizations, for Intel compilers or other products, may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel products.
