Since you want to write a mini host, how can the famous Lenovo M920Q (also known as ThinkCentre) be absent?Although I haven't bought this product, I have used it at a friend's house, and my first impression is that it is small, equivalent to the volume of an old-fashioned external CD drive. The picture below is a comparison between it and the iPhone, isn't it small?
Powered by a Q370 chipset motherboard, the ThinkCentre supports Core 8th and 9th Gen T-series low-power CPUs, two built-in DDR4 laptop memory slots, and also has an M2 NVMe SSD slot. This machine can be understood as a microhost of notebook architecture.
According to the data, the measurements of the ThinkCentre are 179mm x 1829mm x 34.5mm, which is a little smaller than the Dell Optiplex 3020M. However, the ThinkCentre Sparrow is small but has all kinds of organs, with 1 built-in Type-C port, 5 USB ports (1 DP port and 1 HDMI port in the front and back, and of course a Gigabit LAN card port), and the body also provides a microphone and headphone jack.
In terms of configuration, ThinkCentre has eight generations of i3 and i5 versions, and the processors are i3-8300t and i5-8400t respectively, of which i3-8300t+8G memory+256G configuration only needs about 900 yuan, while the i5-8400T version is about 200 yuan more expensive. Of course, Xiaohuangcroaker also has a large number of thinkcentre's "barebones" machines, which are empty machines without CPU, memory, hard disk and power supply, ** for about 400 yuan. This kind of machine is suitable for veteran players who can build a machine, so don't touch it for newbies.
It is worth mentioning that the thinkcentre comes with speakers, although don't expect the sound quality to be good, but it is more convenient for users who listen to a loud occasionally, and the computer desk can be more streamlined, and there is no need to put external speakers. In addition, ThinkCentre is more friendly to novices, that is, there are a large number of merchants selling, and there is no need to fight wits and courage with individual sellers, but ** will be relatively high. In addition, thinkcentre can also be a black apple, which is naturally understood by those who understand, so it will not be expanded here.
