DS Series

High-Performance Dependability

Powered up
Pairing a small size with a tower's modularity, the Gateway® DS Series Desktop is equipped with an Intel® G43 chipset that supports processor types up to Intel® Core™2 Quad. That gives you the ability to breeze through processor-intensive applications in demanding multitasking environments and make the most of highly threaded applications.

Great graphics
Our DS Series features 3D enhancements that deliver the integrated graphics performance you need for commercial use. You'll appreciate the improved realism with support for Microsoft® DirectX® 10, and an onboard DVI-D port lets you connect the highest-quality monitors for beautiful imaging. The Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator X4500 offers an excellent Windows Vista® experience. Plus, Intel® Clear Video Technology delivers crystal-clear images without the artifacts often associated with PC-based video content.

Peak-performing memory
The Gateway® DS Series Desktop also boasts the new cutting-edge DDR3 memory with higher bandwidth for peak performance. A memory reset option provides a more stable memory system, and the improved thermal design of our DS Series consumes less power and reduces temperature.

Managed security
Our DS Series features the Wave® Embassy® Trust Suite, an easy-to-use TPM package that ensures ultimate document security and corporate privacy. The Embassy® Security Center provides security management for the platform and advanced user authentication functions. The Key Transfer Manager backs up and restores from hardware failure or transfer to a new PC. The Document Manager encrypts files and folders to protect and share sensitive data. The Private Information Manager protects data for online forms and managed login. Three Security Wizards set up, and inform about using, the TPM for added security for e-mail, the Microsoft® Encrypting File System (EFS) or wireless network authentication.

Environment friendly
Gateway desktop PCs are full of power-saving functions, can meet Energy Star® 5.0 requirements and are certified green by a variety of international standards, like RoHS. Green is an added value. It means conservation without sacrificing performance. Running more energy-efficient systems helps the environment while cutting down on costs.

A new way to build PCs
Special attention has been given the new Gateway desktops. To reduce the complexity and time spent on repairing units, major improvements have been made on internal and external design. That means the total cost of ownership is reduced because less effort is required for upgrades. The Gateway desktops are cable-less inside, with just two screws for fast removal from chassis to install or upgrade the CPU, hard disk, RAM and optical drive. The modularized design in ODD and the hard drive lower thermal temperatures, make reliability better and serviceability easier.
