Mini pc or traditional desktop pc? That’s not a question

Before buying a computer，we would think about computer performance and usage requirements. With the development of desktop computer, desktop pc has the advantage of low price but high performance. But on the other hand, traditional desktop pc is inconvenient to carry, power consuming, bulky and noisy. Gradually, traditional desktop pc can’t meet the needs of convenient and practical.

With the development of science and technology, mini pc is becoming popular with target group. Investigating its reasons, there are several advantage of mini pc:

1.  Small and portable
Small size is the biggest feature of the mini pc, the volume is only1/30 of the 
traditional desktop pc. Recently, the hot-sale mini pc is very small, such as 
known as the "pocket computer" Realan mini Mr.NUC-V7-i5H4300-V3U ，is very portable. 
Of course, there are also smaller pc case on sale, such as computer sticks, 
the equivalent of a U disk size, but its application is very limited, 
the development prospects are uncertain. The mini pc host is very convenient to 
carry, even could put on the pants pocket directly and can be brought to any 
place, to bring greater convenience to the work and daily life, Now it is
developing from small minority、finely differentiated Market to popular on market.





2.  High performance



For the office computer requirements, besides of the advantages of small size, the performance
is important too. Nowadays, the mini pc technology has matured, for office,
entertainment, industrial control and other basic needs, mini pc is more
than enough, the netbook can meet the needs of daily office and
movies; business pc can meet the needs of stabilizing the low power consumption
to obtain longer battery life; home computer can meet the needs of good performance and cost-efficient. Obviously, high configuration mini pc, on the aspect of overall performance is better, could be contrasted with the
matured-technology and high-profile traditional desktop pc.











3.  Saving energy



In terms of saving
energy, the mini pc uses a low-power processor, thermal design power TDP is
generally around 10W~17W ,while the traditional desktop pc power consumption is in the average of 100W
~ 150W, this is the 10 times of mini pc’s or even larger, At this point mini pc
 can be described as a big advantage.







4.  Quiet and Environmental-friendly



The noise of the
traditional desktop pc has seriously affected the experience of
computer workers and home life. Compared to the traditional desktop pc, the mini pc adoptCooling
design without fan, the machine
runs without noise, quiet and environmental-friendly,
more easily accepted by the market.















5.  High security performance



Although the
mini-computer has a strong performance, low power consumption, small size and
other advantages, the security performance is also an important part. Mini pc is small, and its motherboard
integrated concentratedly, component chipset very compact, therefore, most of
the mini pc can run with long-term stably, the whole machine won’t be interrupted
or damaged even have the individual hardware compatibility problems. For the
traditional desktop pc, it’s easy to encounter the problem of
instable and affect the running of whole machine, result from too much hardware quantity.







6.  HTPC(Home Theater Personal Computer) function



Watching movies at
home is a kind of relaxation way that modern families choose. Many families
will consider buying htpc home projector. In fact, many mini pc also has this function,
high-definition picture quality, perfect smoothly play function, these bring a
pleasant enjoyment experience to the users, of course, it can also be used for
office projection.

















Visibly, mini pc is
very appropriate for office and home
usage. It’s the favor
product for company and home users. But the weakness of the mini pc is the problem of
graphics card, most of the mini pc use integrated graphics rather than independent
graphics card. Of course, playing 4K video is ok, the future of the mini pc
performance will have a lot of space to improve.

Thanks to advances in computer technology, nowadays the trend of computer development is towards to maximize, or to minimize. Now the current awareness for mini-computer products is not so familiar. But when once faced to the market, people pay much attention to those advantages as mini, compact, low-to-use, energy consumption, quiet good, small footprint. Its advanced product concepts, unique design and a broad potential market demand, continues to attract manufacturers to enter this field. Intel based on this concept, has introduced their own products -NUC, NUC  refers to the next generation of computer (Next Unit Computer), and with some of AMDs BRIX series. Product forms with different features, but its design is based on the 10 * 10CM motherboard, while curing the CPU to the motherboard to sell as barebones, thus customers could customize them, according to their needs, choose different brands and capacities of memory and hard drive to meet many different uses. But their products
