Celeron N5105 Jasper Lake debut: Beelink U59 mini PC review

The $199 mini PC. Beelink has updated its inexpensive U59 mini PC with more RAM and a new Intel Celeron CPU without needing to jack up the price. How much of a performance boost can users really expect?

Beelink has updated one of its least expensive mini PCs with a faster Jasper Lake Intel Celeron N5105 CPU to replace the Celeron N5095 on the previous U59 model. Though the chassis remains nearly the same as before, there are a few important differences which we will note in the review below.

The Beelink U59 competes with other inexpensive mini PCs like the Zotac Nano series, GMK NucBox series, or the Chuwi GBox.

Case

Annoyingly, Beelink offers three different U59 designs each with slightly different port options, designs, and internal features. Their dimensions and weight are otherwise nearly the same between them. For our review model here, the chassis has larger ventilation grilles and an all-matte top and logo compared to the smaller grilles and glossy tops of previous models.

Connectivity

Port options are mostly identical to the original U59 including the USB-C port and lack of a Kensington Lock. For this newer model, however, the manufacturer has integrated a second RJ-45 port for a total of two. Note that the USB-C port here supports DisplayPort but not Power Delivery and so the system is reliant on its proprietary AC adapter for power.

Communication

The Intel 3165 WLAN module is removable unlike on the U59 Mini-S version. Though slow, we experienced no connectivity issues when streaming 4K content.

Maintenance

The bottom panel can be removed with just a Philips screwdriver to unveil 2x storage slots (M.2 SATA 2280 + 2.5-inch SATA III), 2x SODIMM slots, and the removable M.2 WLAN module. In comparison, the U59 Mini-S is limited to single-channel memory with its single SODIMM slot.

Accessories and Warranty

Included in the box are two HDMI cables, AC adapter, paperwork, and an adapter bracket for VESA mounting.

The standard one-year limited warranty applies if purchased from the US.

Performance

 
 

Testing Conditions

We set our test unit to Performance mode via Windows prior to running any benchmarks below. There are no manufacturer-specific programs or BIOS features related to the performance of the mini PC.

Processor

Raw CPU performance is only a hair faster than the N5095 in both single- and multi-threaded operations. The performance difference is so small that the two may as well be the same processor.

Storage Devices

The model ships with an M.2 SATA III drive instead of NVMe likely to save on costs. Considering the CPU, however, a SATA III drive is acceptable. The Silicon Motion AZW drive in our test unit would return great sequential read and write rates north of 400 MB/s each.

A small thermal pad for the SSD is included which is surprising to see on a budget mini PC like the U59. The pad sits in between the SSD and the metal 2.5-inch SATA III enclosure that's attached to the top bottom panel.

Beelink U59 N5105: Ø490 (445.59-491.99)

GPU Performance

The integrated GPU gets an upgrade from the Jasper Lake 16 EUs on last year's Celeron N5095 to the Jasper Lake 24 EUs on this year's U59 N5105. 3DMark results are 80 percent faster on the newer GPU when compared to last year's U59 to represent a significant year-over-year boost. However, it's important to note that our U59 N5095 shipped with 8 GB of single-channel RAM compared to the 16 GB of dual-channel RAM in our U59 N5105. The dual-channel RAM alone likely accounts for 30 to 50 percent of that performance difference. Nonetheless, this is still one of the slower integrated GPU solutions out there and so it is unfit for most games new or old.

Emissions

System Noise

Fan noise is quiet no matter the load even when set to Performance mode. We're only able to record a maximum of just under 27 dB(A) against a silent background of 21.5 dB(A) compared to 34 dB(A) on last year's U59. This is one of the quietest mini PCs without opting for fanless models like the Zotac ZBOX PI336.

Our test unit would exhibit minor electronic noise or coil whine which helps explain our idling noise of 22.1 dB(A).

Temperature

AC adapter reaches over 44 C when running demanding loads for extended periods
AC adapter reaches over 44 C when running demanding loads for extended periods

Surface temperatures are warm even when idling on desktop since the fan is so lethargic. The top of the unit can reach 32 C when not running any applications or up to 38 C when running stressful applications for long periods. Hot spots are toward the rear of the chassis nearest the rear ventilation grilles.

Stress Test

CPU clock rates, temperature, and board power draw would spike to 2.8 GHz, 86 C, and 20 W, respectively, when initiating Prime95 stress. After 20 seconds or so, however, clock rates and board power draw would drop to 2.4 GHz and 15 W, respectively, in order to maintain a cooler core temperature of 76 C as shown by the screenshot below. This is actually slower and cooler by 200 MHz and 9 C, respectively, than what we recorded on last year's U59 with the older N5095.

Energy Management

Power Consumption

The system is just slightly more demanding than on last year's U59 with the older Celeron N5095. The aforementioned GPU gains, however, are worth the extra couple of watts. Overall consumption is still much lower than mini PCs powered by Core U or Ryzen U CPUs like the Intel NUC11 or Beelink SER4.

We're able to record a temporary maximum draw of 29 W from the small (~7.8 x 4.6 x 3.2 cm) 36 W AC adapter when running Prime95 stress.

If you're going for processing speed, then there's almost no reason to choose the Celeron N5105 over the N5095. The N5105 may run slightly cooler, but it doesn't offer any appreciable gains in single-thread or multi-thread performance. Its benefits instead lie in the integrated GPU which is faster than the integrated GPU in the N5095 by much wider margins.

Unfortunately, the GPU in the N5105 is still slow and so the Windows UI experience is still laggy when running more than one or two applications simultaneously. In this case, the streaming capabilities of the U59 N5105 are essentially the same as on the U59 N5095. It's recommended to find SKUs with dual-channel RAM whenever possible to maximize the performance of the integrated GPU.

As for the mini PC itself, the U59 has a fair amount of features considering its very low asking price. Configurations come pre-installed with Windows 11 and a very spacious 512 GB SSD with 16 GB of RAM for only around $200 USD whereas an Intel NUC could easily cost over two times as much without any RAM or storage. If all you're looking to do is basic 1080p streaming or browsing, then this U59 will do the job sufficiently. For heavier multi-tasking and more overhead, however, you'll want to invest in a mini PC with faster Core or Ryzen CPUs like the Bellink SEI or SER series.

Price and Availability

The Beelink U59 as configured in our review is currently available for $200 USD if purchased directly from the manufacturer. Alternatively, Amazon has the configuration in stock for $240 USD and $200 for the 16 GB and 8 GB SKUs, respectively.
