Mini PC: the time is now!

Now is the time... Well, now it's finally possible to switch to mini pc. Although it's the maximal configuration of what can be offered now, this mini-computer can actually replace my huge and voracious desktop pc. And it occupies virtually no space, consumes not more than 20 watts, and the main thing is it's absolutely silent!

On the bottom there are ventilation holes. On the top right there's a place for SSD. So one can have two SSDs: one small mSATA and one 2.5-inch SSD. For example, I'll have 128 GB for system and programs, and 500 GB for pictures, music etc, except movies.

Ta-da! Benchmarks!

BTW why the RAM is slower? Than in the desktop. Also 1600, all the same... Maybe because it's one piece, not two?

AES is fast indeed. Because it's built-in indeed.
