Currently, it is possible to develop desktop computers and laptops, with very compact dimensions. The French company PC Bleu Jour has created a very compact computer. Specifically, they created the Kubb Miniand computer very compact limited edition based on a Intel Celeron.
This equipment from the French brand is characterized by the use of a intel celeron processor very low consumption. But, among other things, it is a completely passive aluminum system. We are talking about a very compact system that has dimensions of 6.9 cm³. A very compact solution that will delight fans of compact systems.
Kubb Mini, a small computer with a passive radiator
More and more users want to do without large systems that take up a lot of space. Many opt for compact systems that can be installed behind the monitor or laptops. But Marca Blue Day has created a very compact system, so much so that it can go very unnoticed.
What is most striking are its dimensionswhich are 6.9 x 6.9 x 6.9cm, holding in the palm of the hand. Its structure does not contain any plastic, it is made in a cnc aluminum block to dissipate heat. Using a low-power processor (which we’ll talk about now), it doesn’t use fans.
For this system, a processor was used Intel Celeron N5105, which has 4 cores and 4 threads. This processor has a frequency of 2.0 GHz and in Boost mode it can reach 3.3 GHz In addition, it incorporates a Intel UHD Graphics
This system is accompanied by 8GB LPDDR4 RAM and a unit of 128 GB SSD storage. The RAM memory is soldered onto the motherboard, in order to further miniaturize the system. The SSD, on the other hand, is of the SATA 3 type and has an M.2 2242 format, which can be replaced.
Regarding connectivity, this system has four USB-A 3.0, a USB-C, an HDMI, a 3.5 mm jack connector and a microSD card reader. In addition, this system supports WiFi, for an Internet connection without the need for cables.
A unit limited by its manufacturing complexity
Bleu Jour only released 200 units of this super compact computer. The reason for the limited quantity in terms of units is that the chassis manufacturer takes four hours to manufacture. Something that makes this device more expensive than other models that may be more or less equivalent in size and functionality.
Kubb Mini is available in a limited way for a price of 350 dollars, mainly due to the aluminum block. The French company offers a slightly larger 10.16cc version, which has a starting price of 659 dollars.
Obviously, this system cannot run games, but for office automation, studies or multimedia, it is more than enough. It has a processor which is quite good, the amount of RAM is minimally acceptable and maybe the storage may be insufficient.
