Minicomputers are gaining popularity due to their compact size, sleek appearance, and surprisingly powerful performance, often at an affordable price. These small form factor computers also often offer unique features not typically found on traditional desktop computers.
The most notable feature of the Topton RGB Color mini PC is the large, colorful fan mounted on top. This keeps the unit cool under load (with the help of a large heat dissipation plate inside), but it also looks good with its bright RGB lighting. The fan includes customizable lighting settings, such as “Breathe” and “Horseman,” and can remember your preferences and start them automatically. You can also choose to turn the colors off or switch off the lights entirely if you find that too distracting.
This mini PC comes equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS processor with integrated Radeon 780M graphics. If you want to save some money, you can opt for a 7840HS and an R9 6900HX CPU. The device supports dual-channel DDR5 4800MHz memory and M.2 NVMe SSD storage. You can buy it bare metal or configure it however you like with up to 64GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD.
Surprisingly affordable
Connectivity options include two Gigabit Ethernet ports, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2. There are HDMI and DisplayPort outputs and USB 2.0, USB 3.2, and USB 4 ports, plus an audio jack. The mini PC can drive up to three 4K displays at 60Hz.
The Topton RGB Color Mini PC measures a compact 13cm x 13cm x 5.4cm, weighs 0.5kg and can be placed horizontally or on its side with a convenient stand.
The mini PC, which is available now on AliExpress, is currently priced at $399.79 for the barebone 8845HS model, a 36% discount from its usual price of $624.67. That jumps to $700 if you want to kit it out with a full amount of RAM and storage. The 7840HS version will set you back $330.04, also a 36% discount, while the currently out-of-stock 6900HX model usually sells for $319.83.
