The dc7600's customized thermal design also helps enhance productivity and minimizes system downtime by providing customers more reliable systems. The airflow design is structured to help cool all components of the desktop as increasing demands for power are required. Also, HP's thermal design helps reduce system noise, which can often be distracting to business customers and may reduce productivity. The dc7600 has the same thermal and acoustic benefits of the BTX motherboard designs, but maintains the small size and expandability business customers have come to expect from HP.

In addition, the dc7600 series is the first desktop PC from HP to fully meet the European Union's Restrictions on Hazardous Substances directive. All PCs sold in EMEA must meet these requirements by July 2006 and HP is moving quickly to make it easy for customers to plan their desktop deployments. Additional specifications and pricing for the dc7600, which is expected to be available later this summer, will be released in the coming weeks.
