Gaming and sports betting technology provider Quixant is expanding its Intel offering with the launch of its new IQ 2 hardware platform. Described as designed to meet a wide range of gaming and sports betting performance requirements, the product is slated to debut at the ICE 2024 expo in London.
Part of the IQ range, the new all-in-one platform delivers increased power and functionality at an accessible price point, making it ideally suited to cost-sensitive markets, according to Quixant. The platform is available in options of up to 16GB of main memory, has an integrated LED strip interface, integrated Intel UHD graphics, and drives up to three displays.
The IQ 2 is powered by Intel 12th Generation – Alder Lake N. The offering is passively cooled, has fast memory access and two times more powerful CPU performance when compared to the previous generation of IQ products, notes Quixant, “allowing customers to improve frames per second or make their sports betting kiosk experience even more immersive.”
Like Quixant’s entire range of hardware platforms, it meets the requirements “of all major global gaming jurisdictions,” including GLI-11, and is enhanced by its Software Suite solutions as standard, which is created to optimize game and sports betting kiosk development and delivery.
Commenting on the launch of the IQ 2, Duncan Faithfull, EVP and CCO at Quixant, said: “Our customers’ focus needs to be on developing the customer experience, not on the hardware platforms to bring their products to life. They need powerful, reliable and cost-effective products that enable them to focus on aspects that allow them to get ahead of the game. That is why we developed our range of game-changing hardware platforms, IQ, IQON, and QMAX, which are designed to provide a range of options that deliver maximum performance based on budget, market, and product needs.”

According to Faithfull, the new IQ 2 is the company’s “most powerful cost-effective platform to date,” giving customers the opportunity to deliver even more performance at an accessible price point, which the company says is particularly suited to the LatAm, Route and Amusement markets.
The executive continued: “Our hardware platforms and embedded Software Suite solutions enable our customers to outsource these aspects with confidence that everything required from a power, performance, security and regulatory perspective for the gaming and sports betting market is covered.
“Expanding on the existing range has been key in the current climate, giving customers even more variety, choosing between Intel and AMD and offering different processor, power and performance options dependent on the needs of the market they operate in.”
Quixant’s solutions are entirely focused on the gaming and sports betting sector. The company provides specialist products and supply chain solutions that allow its customers to focus on developing “the ultimate products,” with partnerships being key to the firm’s offering.
“It is our responsibility to make sure our customers get the most out of their Quixant products and collaboration, so they can seamlessly integrate all elements of their gaming cabinet or sports betting terminal or kiosk and ensure enhanced product performance, expedited delivery, cost-efficiencies, and ultimate results,” added Faithfull.
The Quixant representative concluded: “To enable our customers to get even more from their hardware, we launched our range of gaming cabinet and sports betting kiosk solutions Quantum and Qinetic, which are brought to life by our market-leading hardware platforms.
“Both come with a comprehensive suite of peripherals, are highly configurable and are available with a range of display and button desk configurations, which can be tailored to meet customers’ individual requirements, with the support from our in-house specialist product development team.”
ICE 2024 attendees will be able to explore this new offering and other products in Quixant’s solutions portfolio at ICE 2024. The firm’s team of experts will be at Stand N2-120 to discuss how Quixant’s products can best support its clients’ needs.
