As the first Mini PC in the new WO series by PELADN, WO4 has won users' favor since its launch in January, thanks to its compact size and outstanding performance. Despite its small dimensions of just 128mm x 128mm x 52mm, it performs as well as many desktop computers. This leads us to ponder: Does bigger size really mean better performance for computers?
In fact, computer performance is influenced by multiple factors such as hardware configuration, CPU, memory, graphics card, and so on, and it does not solely depend on its size. In the past, due to technological limitations, more powerful hardware often required larger space for heat dissipation and layout. However, with the continuous advancement of technology, hardware configurations have become smaller, more efficient, and energy-saving. This means that small-sized computer can also have excellent response speed and operational efficiency. Therefore, we cannot simply measure the performance of PC based on their size.
1、Compact size and powerful performance
The WO4 Mini PC is compact in size, with a body weight of only 0.5KG. What does this mean? Currently, ultra thin laptop with a thickness of less than 16 millimeters typically weigh between 1 to 1.5KG. That is to say, as an office computer, the WO4 Mini PC is much lighter than the ultra thin laptop, making it easier to carry and move around.
In addition, the WO4 Mini PC can also be used as a high-performance office computer. Equipped with the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U processor, its Radeon Vega 8 can meet some basic graphics processing requirements, making it ideal for light graphic design work and home entertainment. The design with 8 cores and 16 threads can also handle multiple tasks simultaneously, which is a huge advantage for software developers who need multi-threaded operations, analysts who need to process large amounts of data, and other professional users who require powerful computing capabilities.
2、Sturdy structure and efficient heat dissipation
For Mini PC, it is undoubtedly a very challenging technical problem to ensure that the device maintains sufficient heat dissipation during continuous operation. However, through independent research and development of the HardCore structure, the WO4 Mini PC has successfully overcome this challenge. Utilizing efficient cooling fans and a rational airflow design, WO4 can maintain stable performance even under heavy loads, avoiding speed reduction due to overheating.
3、Pre-installed system and flexible expansion
The WO4 Mini PC comes with a pre-installed Windows 11 operating system, eliminating the need for users to install the system themselves upon purchase. This allows for immediate use upon powering on, greatly saving time and effort. In terms of configuration, there is also a high degree of flexibility, allowing users with different budgets and application needs to select suitable configurations. Additionally, the WO4 Mini PC offers ample upgrade potential in terms of memory and SSD, supporting upgrades of up to 64GB (32GB*2) of memory and 3TB (2TB M.2 + 1TB 2.5-inch HDD) of SSD. The magnetic design further enhances the device's ease of use and expandability.
The size of the device can affect hardware assembly choices and heat dissipation capabilities, but it is not the key determinant of performance. WO4 Mini PC, with its outstanding performance, efficient heat dissipation, and flexible configuration, overturns the notion that "the larger the computer, the stronger the performance", demonstrating the potential and possibilities of Mini PC in terms of performance. While pursuing high performance, WO4 Mini PC also achieves effective utilization of space, providing users with an ideal choice that saves space and excellent performance.
