A great price for the new BMAX B11 Pro mini PC, which features an Intel Core Ultra 5 115U processor commonly found in laptops and includes a dedicated NPU for on-device AI tasks.
Its Intel Core Ultra5 115U processor is built on a 5-nm process and features 8 cores (2P 4E 2LE) and 10 threads, reaching a maximum speed of 4.2 GHz, with a TDP of 12/57 W. It integrates a dedicated AI NPU with 11 TOPS and an iGPU with 3 Xe-Cores, featuring image enhancements via upscaling thanks to its XeSS cores.
As for RAM, it comes with 16 GB of LPDDR5 at 4400 MHz, which does not appear to be expandable, so it may be soldered directly onto the motherboard. For storage, it features a 512 GB NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD, but this can be expanded thanks to its bay for a 2.5-inch SATA3 SSD.
In terms of network connectivity, it features a 2.5 GB Ethernet port, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2. For ports, it includes a 3.5 mm audio jack, two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, and one USB-C port. For video outputs, there are two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4, and a USB-C port with DisplayPort video output supporting 8K@60 HDR10, allowing you to connect to three displays simultaneously using all available outputs.
This computer comes with Windows 11 Pro, and its case design allows you to mount it behind any TV or monitor thanks to its VESA mount.
