Advantages and disadvantages of Mini Barebone PC | GREATZC Mini Barebone PC

Do you know the mini barebone PC? With the rapid development of science and technology, many electronic products are not only more and more powerful but also smaller and smaller, such as smartphones, various household appliances, computers, etc. Today GREATZC- 16+ years manufacturer of mini barebone pc will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of Mini Barebone PC.

If you measure a computer in terms of size, weight, portability, etc., it should be in such a grade: thin and light notebook > gaming notebook > all-in-one desktop > ordinary desktop. In fact, there is a computer on the market, which is very portable, that is the mini barebone pc.

This kind of mini barebone pc has a very small and exquisite appearance and does not take up space. It is suitable for placing in TV cabinets, living room desks, bedroom computer desks, etc., but you don't think it is so compact, but its functions are exactly the same as ordinary computers. You can also connect to Wi-Fi, browse the web, chat, watch live videos, and even play games.

The biggest difference between a mini barebone pc and an ordinary desktop computer should be the performance gap. Due to the limited internal space, this mini barebone pc basically adopts the architecture of a notebook computer. You can see this by looking at the CPU parameters. CPUs all end with U, M, MQ, and HQ. These CPUs are all Intel mobile platform CPUs, and their performance is much lower than the desktop version of Core.

There are pros and cons to everything. The mini barebone pc uses a low-power processor, and the thermal design power consumption TDP is generally around 10W-17W, which is more energy-saving than desktop computers. Due to the fanless heat dissipation design of some Mini Barebone PCs, the whole machine can achieve zero noise during operation, which brings a quiet experience to work and life, and has been loved by people.

Of course, there are also desktop CPUs for some models of mini barebone pc, but most of them are concentrated in the Intel Pentium and Core i3 models, and there is basically no more up there because considering the big problem of heat dissipation, the internal space was original If the CPU is a Core i5 or i7, the power consumption is relatively large, and the CPU temperature is difficult to suppress, and the computer is prone to problems such as blue screen and crash, which affect the stability of the product.

In addition to the weak CPU performance, the performance of the graphics card is also average. For the reasons mentioned above, there is not enough internal space and heat dissipation. There is no way to match the discrete graphics card. You can only use the core display that comes with the CPU, and the game performance is average.

In addition, compared with ordinary desktop computers, mini barebone PCs are more integrated and have a lower failure rate than desktop computers, but maintenance and upgrades are not so convenient. For example, CPUs and mobile platform CPUs are It is directly soldered to the motherboard, and there is no way to upgrade it at will. In other words, if the hard disk space is not enough for ordinary desktop computers, you can add additional hard disks, while for mini barebone pc, there is no additional space, and you can only replace hard disks with larger capacity.

All in all, the advantages of a mini barebone pc are small size, exquisite appearance, no space, easy to carry, and can meet daily office needs and general audiovisual entertainment functions. The disadvantage is that the internal space is small, the heat dissipation problem leads to weak performance, it cannot be matched with a discrete graphics card, and the game performance is average. However, since it is a mini host, it is naturally a mini usage, not an ordinary desktop computer usage.
