D11: Mini PC comes with fast APU and can be a gaming system with an external GPU

Topton is now offering a new mini PC, the D11, which is intended for more demanding tasks thanks to its powerful AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS processor. If this is insufficient for displaying graphically demanding content, an external graphics card can be used. Not only via USB 4.0, but also via OCuLink.

The mini PC is available in various configurations and also as a barebone, i.e., without RAM and SSD. In the maximum configuration, the model comes with 64 GB of DDR5 RAM and an NVMe SSD with a capacity of 4 TB. Up to 96 GB of DDR5 memory is supported and a second M.2 2280 slot is available. 

Two USB 4.0 ports are on board, which can also be used to connect displays. There is also a DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 port, allowing a total of four high-resolution displays to be connected. A M.2 2230 module allows for WiFi 6 connections, and Bluetooth 5.2 is supported. The Ethernet connection supports a maximum data transfer rate of 2.5 GBit/s. External mass storage devices and accessories can be connected via two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and two USB 2.0 ports. A memory card reader is available, as is a jack socket.

The model is now available for direct import as a barebone for a price of just over $470. This includes shipping costs and import fees. As usual, the enforceability of warranty claims is unlikely to be possible.
