This Intel Mini PC (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) Goes for Peanuts, Now Even Cheaper Than on Prime Day
A small PC with an even smaller price tag does not mean small performance or productivity, not when the manufacturer is GMKtec. One of the world's top mini PC brands strikes again with the G3 Plus, a wee but mighty desktop PC with outstanding speed and connectivity and 2-monitor capability, and Amazon strikes again with a 25% off deal that brings you the G3 Plus for just $157. The Intel Twin Lake N150 3.6GHz processor at the heart of the G3 Plus's tiny body is an upgrade from the N100, and beats it across every benchmark possible. With the new processor cranking at up to 3.6GHz and the Intel Graphics card keeping the visuals moving at up to 1000MHz, you won't be sacrificing speed or quality in exchange for all the desk space you'll gain when you switch to this palm-sized PC. See at Amazon Any mini PC is going to be immediately compared to the Mac Mini, so let's get that out of the way first. The GMKtec G3 Plus is 4.49 by 4.17 inches around and 1.65 inches tall, even smaller than the 5 x 5 x 2 Mac Mini. The G3 Plus's Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 connections are just a hair behind the Mac's Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3, but the G3 Plus holds its own when it comes to ports, with four USB 3.2, two HDMI 4K, and gigabyte Ethernet, compared to the Mac's two USB-C, three Thunderbolt 4, Ethernet, and one HDMI. But while the GMKtec G3 Plus would probably get edged out by the Mac Mini in a pure toe-to-toe performance battle, it more than makes up for it by destroying the Mac in the all-important price war — just $157 in this Amazon deal, compared to the $500 starting point of the Mac Mini. Unless you're a hardcore Mac devotee, that's a hard one to overcome. The GMKtec G3 Plus's ability to drive two 4K monitors, its fast internet via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, and its wide range of ports for printers, external hard drives, or any other parallel device or accessory you could want or need at your desk, make it a bona fide steal at this price point. Also consider the premium construction of the G3 Plus, with new upgraded cooling fan and thermal paste to further reduce heat. GMKtec might not spring to mind immediately when you're preparing to shop for a new PC, but in addition to being one of the world's leading makers of small desktops, they've also scored an Amazon's Choice designation with the G3 Plus, and now a 25% off Amazon deal that takes the price of this palm-sized powerhouse down from $210 to just $157.
