Architects need more than a computer that can open a drawing. Modern design work can involve detailed CAD files, Building Information Models (BIM), 3D scenes, materials, lighting, animation, real-time walkthroughs and AI-assisted tools.

The STS high-end mini-PC shown in this poster brings CPU computing, integrated GPU graphics and an AI NPU together in one compact system. It can be configured as a powerful workstation for architecture and other professional applications, subject to the software, driver and workload requirements.

### Configuration shown in the poster

• **Processor: ** Intel Core Ultra X7 358H

• **CPU: ** 16 cores — 4 Performance-cores, 8 Efficient-cores and 4 Low Power Efficient-cores; up to 4.8 GHz max turbo

• **Integrated graphics: ** Intel Arc B390 GPU, with 12 Xe-cores and up to 122 GPU TOPS (INT8)

• **AI engine: ** Intel AI Boost NPU, up to 50 NPU TOPS (INT8)

• **Memory: ** 64 GB LPDDR5X, 9600 MT/s

• **Storage: ** 1 TB SSD

The Arc B390 and NPU figures are separate peak specifications. They should not be added together and described as one total. Actual graphics and AI performance depends on the system’s cooling, memory configuration, drivers, software support and the workload. Confirm compatibility for the exact mini-PC and applications before finalizing a workstation configuration.

### What do the CPU, GPU and NPU do?

**CPU — Central Processing Unit**

The CPU runs the operating system and general application work. In an architecture workflow, it handles tasks such as file operations, drawing commands, BIM data, model calculations and coordinating the different parts of a design application. This processor’s 16-core design combines Performance-cores with Efficient and Low Power Efficient-cores for different types of work.

**GPU — Graphics Processing Unit**

The GPU is designed to process many graphics operations in parallel. It draws and updates 3D models on screen, renders the design viewport, processes visual effects and helps with supported rendering, video and graphics workloads. Intel Arc B390 graphics are integrated into the processor platform rather than being a separate graphics card.

**NPU — Neural Processing Unit**

The NPU is a dedicated engine for supported AI workloads. It can accelerate compatible AI features such as image processing, enhancement, noise removal, background effects or local inference, depending on the application and software support. It gives developers another processing resource to use alongside the CPU and GPU.

In short: the **CPU runs and coordinates**, the **GPU handles graphics and parallel visual work**, and the **NPU accelerates supported AI tasks**. They work together, but each is suited to different workloads.

### How can architects use this workstation?

Develop and review CAD drawings

Work with architectural models and BIM projects

Create 3D building models, interiors and landscapes

Preview materials, lighting and design changes

Prepare visual presentations and design walkthroughs

Work with supported real-time visualization and rendering applications

Run multiple design tools and project files at the same time

The compact mini-PC can help keep a design desk uncluttered while providing substantial compute, graphics and memory resources. For very large scenes, specialized rendering workflows or software that requires a specific certified graphics card, check the application vendor’s hardware requirements and test the exact configuration.

### Other applications

The same CPU + GPU + NPU approach can also support:

• Product design, industrial design and 3D CAD

• Mechanical design and visualization

• Digital content creation, image and video editing

• Scientific and engineering visualization

• AI-assisted image, video and document workflows

• Local AI inference in supported applications

• Interactive demonstrations, simulation and digital-twin visualization

• Software development and multi-application professional work
