Insyde® Software Powers Copilot+ PCs with AI Acceleration

InsydeH2O® UEFI BIOS Enables A New Breed of Fast and Intelligent AI PCs Running Windows 11 on AMD™ and Intel® Processors

TAIPEI, TAIWAN – October 08, 2024 – Insyde® Software, a leading provider of UEFI BIOS and OpenBMC management firmware, announced today that its flagship firmware, InsydeH2O® UEFI BIOS, is helping leading OEMs and ODMs ship the latest Copilot+ certified PCs featuring the recently launched AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 and Intel Core® Ultra 200V series CPUs.

The Copilot+ PC initiative was launched earlier this year by Microsoft, establishing a new category of PCs that offer rich AI experiences. Among its advanced hardware requirements, designated Copilot+ PCs must feature a dedicated, high-performance NPU capable of at least 40 TOPS (trillions of operations per second) to help enable a wide variety of productive and creative AI-powered experiences running locally on Windows 11.

The world’s top computer makers trust Insyde Software’s optimized firmware and enabling expertise to harness the platforms’ performance, security and intelligence to design AI PCs that deliver intelligent experiences, exceptional performance, and long battery life. Additionally, Insyde worked closely with Microsoft, partners and customers to enable the latest enhanced security features including Secured-core PC, Microsoft Pluton, Windows System Guard, and SMM Protection.

“We are proud to claim that many of the industry’s first AI PCs and Copilot+ PCs across x86 and Arm platforms have been enabled with InsydeH2O,” said Alan Lo, Senior Assistant Vice President of the Personal Computing Group at Insyde Software. “Today’s announcement reflects our leadership in helping our customers enable and deliver some of today’s most advanced AI technology to market,” added Lo.

Among the x86 Copilot+ PCs now shipping with InsydeH2O and AMD Ryzen AI 300 include the Acer Swift 14 AI and Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 Ryzen AI 9. Copilot+ PCs shipping with InsydeH2O and the Intel Core Ultra 200V Series include the Acer Swift 14 AI, Acer Swift 16 AI, and the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition.
