The VS-450 is made by Corsair, a computer peripheral and hardware company based in Fremont, California.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The \u201cCore i3\u201d and \u201cCore i5\u201d in the names of the computers point to CPUs by US company Intel, too. The desktop Core i3 used an Intel Core i3-6100 3.4\u3393 CPU, while the CPU of the water-cooled Core i5 is not specified.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Achim Computer is reportedly a joint venture with China&#8217;s Panda Electronics, an electronics manufacturer based in Nanjing. As the Chinese side apparently supplies the necessary parts while the North Korean side assembles and sells the products, it is possible that the parts mentioned on the website were provided by the Chinese side.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_51886\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-51886\" style=\"width: 741px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-51886 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/20220527_mdh_inwin_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"741\" height=\"494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/20220527_mdh_inwin_3.jpg 741w, https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/20220527_mdh_inwin_3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/20220527_mdh_inwin_3-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/20220527_mdh_inwin_3-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 741px) 100vw, 741px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-51886\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">PC case by Taiwan\u2019s INWIN (left), Achim Computer\u2019s PC (right) (captures from INWIN and Foreign Trade of the DPR Korea websites)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">United Nations Security Council Resolution 2397, adopted in December of 2017, bans the export of industrial metals, machinery and electrical equipment to North Korea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite international sanctions, North Korea appears to be importing overseas parts to use in the manufacture of electronic devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since North Korea did not say when it posted the products on the website, whether these represent the company\u2019s latest items remains unknown. However, considering that the computers use sixth-generation Intel Core I series CPUs released in 2015 and power supplies released in 2014, they do not appear to be the latest items.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also possible that with North Korea unable to import the latest computer parts due to international sanctions, the country is assembling computers from old parts for domestic sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Translated by David Black.
