About this tag
The developer pcs tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussion of high-end Windows 11 machines aimed at software development and local AI work. A recurring theme is Microsoft's Project Zenith, which sets a demanding hardware floor of at least 64GB of unified memory and 250GB/s of memory bandwidth for qualifying systems.
