ASUS introduces mini PCs with Intel Alder Lake and AMD Ryzen 5000H processors – Computer – News

ASUS has unveiled two Mini PC models at the CES fair, namely the PN64 and PN52. Both models have a volume of 0.87 liters and have an Intel Alder Lake CPU or an AMD Ryzen 5000H CPU.

The two models have similar housings with dimensions of 120x130x55.5mm, but differ in connections and internal components. For example, the PN64 model gets an Intel Alder Lake CPU. According to Liliputing customers can choose from all Alder Lake-P-28W models and two 45W-H models. Those two H CPUs are the i5-12500H and i7-12700H.

In addition, the PN64 model has two sodimm slots for DDR5-4800 memory, a single M.2 2280 slot and space for a 2.5″ drive. This model supports Wi-Fi 6 or 6E, has a 2.5Gbit port, two HDMI connections, five USB 3.2 ports, two of which are Type-C and a 3.5mm port, plus there’s room for an extra port, so customers can choose whether they want an HDMI, DisplayPort 1.4 -, vga, com or rj45 port The optional HDMI port seems to be the only one of all HDMI ports that would meet 4k120 in bandwidth and thus HDMI 2.1, but there is little further information about that known.

Like the PN52 variant, the PN64 has a fan and will be available in the United States in the second quarter of this year, according to Liliputing. The PN64 costs there, converted with VAT, at least 395 euros. The price of the PN52 model is not yet known. It’s also not clear which processors it will get; it is only known that it will be CPUs from the Ryzen 5000H series.

Other changes from the PN64 model include an additional M.2 2280 slot and six USB ports, with this model having an additional Type-A port. ASUS also talks about support for USB Power Delivery input with this model and customers can also choose which port they want to have.
