Large computer towers are being replaced, in some cases, by compact systems and laptops. It can be seen that many brands are interested in the compact computer segment, where the market is experiencing strong growth. Today we bring you two interesting Mini PC with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB SSD with up to 200 dollars discount.
FORUM MINIS UM350
One of the interesting options we found is this MINIS FORUM team. This brand of compact computers has a growing offer and solutions for all tastes and budgets. It has an excellent user rating. This MINIS FORUM UM350 stands out with a Ryzen 5 3550H for 320 dollars.
We have to start talking about the processor, which is quite interesting and powerful. Use a AMD Ryzen 5 3550H who has 4 cores and 8 threads running at a maximum frequency of 3.7 GHz. This processor is complemented by an integrated Radeon Vega 8 @ 1200 MHz graphics card. With this processor we can move games like CS:GO, Minecraft, Fornite or Dota 2, between others, without major problems. .
This system incorporates a total of 16GB DDR4 RAM, which could be considered as the current minimum. Each time the software (and especially Google Chrome) consumes more RAM. This causes the 8 GB to start running out.
For storage, a 512 GB M.2 SSD, which would be the minimum storage capacity currently. In addition, we can change this unit for a solution of up to 2 TB and we can connect a 2.5-inch hard drive thanks to the SATA connector that integrates the system.
Regarding the connection, it has a USB 3.0 Gen1, a USB-C Gen2 and three USB 3.1 Gen2. It also has an HDMI port, a DisplayPort and an Ethernet port. It also incorporates support for WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0.
A very interesting system with a really attractive price that can be used to work and play casually.
CHUWI Mini PC RzBox
You may be looking for something more powerful and full-featured, with something other th an casual gaming in mind. Another well-known brand is CHUWI, which in this case brings a solution based on a more powerful AMD processor. The CHUWI RzBox system integrates a Ryzen 7 5800H and costs 400 dollars
We have in this system a much more modern processor (more precisely, an APU). He uses the mighty Ryzen 7 5800H who has 8 cores and 16 threads operating at a maximum frequency of 4.4 GHz. It incorporates a graphic Radeon Vega 8 Operating at 2,000 MHz, it is a processor with a very powerful integrated graphics card that can run eSports type games and other more current games.
Another of the strengths of this system is that it has 16GB DDR4 RAM in a format of two modules in Dual Channel. For storage, a 512 GB M.2 SSD capacity, which is great. We can expand the system capacity with an additional M.2 SSD up to 2TB.
Connectivity is another of the strengths of this Chuwi system. It features three USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, and one USB-C port. It also has two Gigabit Ethernet ports, an HDMI 2.0 port, DisplayPort and VGA. Finally, note that it offers support for connectivity WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2.
It must be said that, although it is worth a little more than the previous model, it is worth much more for the additional power that we will have.
