Is This Similar to a Laptop

Mind_001

I have been looking at this since it's release in late 2019.

Now, in comparison, does the CPU/APU = Laptop with CPU/APU? (no discrete graphics)

 

Because I do not game. (Other than Minecraft and Rocket League, and not heavy graphics at that) I'm not a developer or coder. I just look around different Forums, E-Mail, YouTube, Netflix (when I had it)

 

Minus the Monitor, Keyboard/Mouse, and battery, is it typically a laptop?

 

The reason I am looking at it, is because it has 2 DP ports. My two Dell monitors have HDMI and DP connections. Also has 2x M.2 slots, and has room for 2x SATA 2.5" SSD's.

 

I REALLY do not need my ATX motherboard, Ryzen 5 2600, 32GB RAM, 1200W PSU, AMD Radeon 580. It's too much overkill, IMO. That I will never use the full potential.

Yes, mini PCs in that form factor tend to all use laptop grade components, as does the one you linked.

Thanks. I thought so, as it uses So-Dimm RAM. But does the Embedded CPU equal the higher end laptop CPUs?

Can find the specs for them here... https://www.amd.com/en/products/embedded-ryzen-v1000-series?gclid=CjwKCAiA1rPyBRAREiwA1UIy8NhxNCh4veiDS2W4OEOFqWzs5NMWaysHzh4HJECQsSh1VE6AkSmpaxoCmd0QAvD_BwE

 

It's not a bad chip, 4c/8t 12-25w configurations. Sounds like it should fit your use case. But no, it isn't "high-end". It is a last gen "Zen", low power consumption, mobile APU.

Ah, OK, that makes sense. I don't "need" high end, as I just explained, I'm not a heavy gamer.
