The world of computing continues to evolve and shrink in size, as evidenced by the latest innovation from ASRock – the 4X4 BOX mini PC. This tiny powerhouse packs a punch with its compact design, yet boasts impressive specifications that rival even the larger desktop computers. The 4X4 BOX mini PC is designed for both home and office use, offering the perfect solution for users looking to save space without sacrificing performance.

The ASRock 4X4 BOX mini PC refresh brings the new Ryzen 7000U lineup to the devices. As we know, the 7000U is a mobile processor lineup, meaning that it is meant for low-power devices like laptops. However, considering that it is based on AMD’s Zen 3+ architecture, the power performance per watt of power is actually quite high. Apart from the new Ryzen 7000U processors, these mini PCs are among the first AMD-powered devices to offer two USB4 ports.

These mini PCs also offer support for the faster DDR5 memory standard, with two SO-DIMM slots that can accommodate up to 64 GB of DDR5-4800 RAM. Users can choose from two processor options: the Ryzen 7 7735U with 8 cores and 16 threads, and the Ryzen 5 7535U with 6 cores and 12 threads. The mini PCs have a SATA 3 slot for HDDs and SDDs, as well as an M.2 2280 slot for a PCIe 4.0 X4 NVme SSD.

It has built-in wireless connectivity through its M.2 module, which supports Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2. Additionally, the mini PC includes a Realtek ALC233 HD Audio codec and a TPM 2.0 chip. The compact system chassis measures 110.0 x 117.5 x 47.85mm.

Pricing and availability information about the ASRock 4X4 BOX mini PCs are still under wraps, however, we can expect them to appear soon.
