PiPo has posted some new pics online of their newest Mini PC, this one’s different as while it has a common Atom X5 Z8300 and 4GB of Ram. It has a massive heat sink and fan for cooling. PiPo claims it improves performance by 15% to 60%. And it has a SATA connector so you can add your own 1 or 2TB drive for storage. It’s got a 64GB eMMC for Windows 10 and main use which will still be faster than a large spindle drive. You could of course add an SSD, but it’s only a SATA2 port so speeds will be capped.
But it’s definitely a unique little Win 10 mini PC, great to see the huge heatsink as these X5’s tend to run quite hot and throttle, doubt it would now with it’s active cooling. Gearbest has it listed for $193.
