If you don’t have the space to spare, you may not be jumping at the chance to give up half of your tiny desk to a giant PC monitor. You can get a pretty decent amount of power out of mini PCs these days, and they take up practically no room at all. Prices aren’t bad either. Look over at this ACEMAGIC K1 mini PC. It’s normally sold for $329 which is already pretty good. Though, right now, it’s marked down by 36%. This ends up shaving the price down by $120, so you end up only having to pay $209.

So what’s under this mini PC’s tiny hood? Well, it’s working with the latest AMD Ryzen 4300U four core, four thread processor (with an integrated AMD Radeon graphics card) which can provide up to 3.7GHz turbo boost. This gets about 30% faster processing than the previous generation.

The lowest price option comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage on its SSD. Configurations of the mini PC are available that go as high as 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. Memory and storage can be expanded, with theDDR4 slots upgradable to 64GB and the SSD slots upgradable up to 4TB. That’s plenty of  space for multimedia file storage.

The unit comes preinstalled with Windows 11 Pro so you can start working with it right out of the box.

Versatile Port Selection

The ACEMAGIC K1 mini PC offers flexible connectivity with a variety of ports. Two USB 3.2 ports along with one USB-C port. These are all capable of transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps and the USB-C even supports Power Delivery charging. Four more USB 3.2 ports capable of half that speed are also available, making for seven total USB slots. Also supported is Gigabit Ethernet, WiFi 5, as well as Bluetooth 4.2. Connect you mouse, keyboard, and any other peripheral you’d possibly need. It’s even got an audio jack if you want to plug in a good ol’ fashioned pair of wired headphones.

A mini PC can make for quite the versatile option when it comes to setting up a home theater. For display options, the ACEMAGIC K1 mini PC is equipped with an HDMI 2.0 port, a DisplayPort 1.4, and a USB-C 3.2 port. Each of these three ports is capable of displaying resolutions up to 4K and refresh rates up to 60Hz. This also means you’ll be able to connect to up to three different monitors at once without the need for any auxiliary docking station.
