For more information about the configuration of your computer, go to Help and Support in your Windows operating system and select the option to view information about your computer.
Processor
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. The following GSP processors identified below will be made available to Dell customers.
NOTE: Processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor availability is subject to change and may vary by region/country.
