Overview:

The PCBuilder CUBE Intel i5-1235U Mini PC delivers a practical combination of performance, compact design and versatile connectivity for modern work environments. Powered by a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U processor with 10 cores and speeds of up to 4.4GHz, it is well suited to office applications, multitasking, point-of-sale systems, digital signage, presentations and general business use.

With 8GB DDR4 memory and a 512GB Gen3 M.2 NVMe SSD, the CUBE-i5 provides responsive everyday performance with fast system boot times and application loading. Intel Iris Xe Graphics handles high-resolution display output, while the compact chassis takes up very little desk space and can be mounted behind a compatible monitor using the included VESA bracket.

Description
The PCBuilder CUBE-i5 is a compact Intel mini PC designed for users who need capable computing performance without the size of a traditional desktop tower. Its Intel Core i5-1235U processor combines 2 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores with 12 threads, allowing the system to handle multiple applications efficiently.

The 512GB NVMe SSD provides fast access to files and applications, while the DDR4-3200 memory supports smooth everyday multitasking. Memory can also be expanded up to 64GB, providing additional flexibility for demanding business workloads.

For display connectivity, the mini PC includes two HDMI 2.1 ports and a Thunderbolt 4 Type-C port. This gives the system plenty of flexibility for multi-display workstations, presentations and high-resolution digital signage. The Thunderbolt 4 connection supports data transfer speeds of up to 40Gbps and display output up to 8K at 60Hz.

Networking is equally versatile. Built-in Intel Wi-Fi 6 provides fast wireless connectivity, while Bluetooth 5.2 supports compatible wireless accessories. A 2.5Gbps RJ45 Ethernet connection is also included for users who prefer a wired network connection.
