Mini PCs are becoming increasingly popular due to their compact size, stylish looks, and surprisingly powerful performance, often at an affordable price. These small-form-factor computers also often offer unique features not normally found in traditional desktops.
The most striking feature of the Topton RGB Color Mini PC is the large, colorful fan mounted on top. This keeps the unit cool under load (aided by a large heatsink plate inside), but also looks good with its bright RGB lighting. The fan includes customizable lighting settings, such as “Breathe” and “Horseman”, and it can remember your preferences and start them automatically. You can also choose to disable the colors or turn the lights off altogether if you find it too distracting.
This mini PC is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS processor with integrated Radeon 780M graphics. If you want to save some money, you can downgrade to a 7840HS and an R9 6900HX CPU. The device supports DDR5 4800MHz dual-channel memory and M.2 NVMe SSD storage. You can buy it barebones or configure it to your liking with up to 64GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD.
Surprisingly affordable
Connectivity options include dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and 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 is compact, measuring 13cm x 13cm x 5.4cm, weighs 0.5kg and can be placed flat or sideways thanks to the handy stand.
