Windows Dev Kit 2023 (also known as Project Volterra) is an ARM-based compact desktop computer for software developers, developed by Microsoft. It was announced during the Build conference on May 24, 2022, and was released on October 24, 2022.
Windows Dev Kit 2023 came pre-loaded with Windows 11 Pro and features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 system-on-a-chip (SoC), 32 GB LPDDR4X RAM, 512 GB NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, three USB-A, two USB-C (with DisplayPort Alternate Mode support), one Mini DisplayPort (with HBR2 support), and one physical Gigabit Ethernet port (embedded USB). It can support up to three external monitors simultaneously.[1] The USB-C ports provide USB-PD but the device itself cannot be powered by them. The device's shell design is "made with 20% recycled ocean plastic".
Windows Dev Kit 2023 contains a neural processing unit (NPU), enabling developers "to run hardware-accelerated AI tasks and machine learning workloads".[2]
