The best mini PCs offer compactness, portability, lower power consumption and are ideal for a number of tasks, making them a cost-effective and space-saving solution for both business and personal use.
The latest addition to the MeLE mini PC family, the Overclock4C is more capable than many such devices, thanks to its 12th generation quad-core Alder Lake N95 Intel processor. MeLE claims that the new device is 33% faster than its predecessor, the Overclock 3C, which was equipped with a Celeron N5105 Jasper Lake CPU.
The storage in this new model has been upgraded to a 512GB NVMe SSD and comes with 16GB of RAM. Both memory and storage can be upgraded up to 32 GB and 4 TB respectively if desired. The device also includes a micro SD card slot for up to 2TB of additional removable storage.
A choice of connectivity options
The Overclock4C has two HDMI 2.0 ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, one USB Type-C (power only), two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, one USB 2.0 Type-A, one Gigabit Ethernet and one 3.5 mm audio.
A highlight of the new model is the ability to support up to three displays simultaneously (via the HDMI ports and full-size USB-C).
In terms of wireless connectivity, the Overclock4C mini PC features Wi-Fi 6 MU-MIMO and Bluetooth 5.2.
Despite its name, the Overclock4C doesn't support overclocking (increasing the CPU frequency for a boost), but you can adjust the power limits (PL1, PL2, etc.), which can improve performance somewhat.
The mini PC comes with Windows 11 Pro pre-installed, but can also run Linux.
The Overclock4C is for sale on Amazon for a price of $269.99. However, there is currently a $50 off coupon available on the page, dropping the price to just $219.99.
