Impact Display Solutions IMP-3713-V2-16-500 Fanless PC Review

Impact Components specializes in building industrial PCs with specialized hardware and motherboards. Certain models have active cooling while the review unit here is fanless. Let's stress and benchmark the system to see how a passively cooled chassis can handle a low-power 12 to 25 W AMD Ryzen Embedded V1605B CPU.
More detailed specifications on the PC and its D3713-V/R mITX motherboard can be found via their respective product pages.

Case
The entire case is anodized aluminum from top to bottom and IP50 certified for dust protection but not water protection. It is significantly larger and heavier than the IMP-3654-B1-R we checked out early last year which should hopefully lead to improved cooling and higher thermal soak.

Storage Devices
The 500 GB Wycom SSD w/ Silicon Motion SM2262EN controller offers faster transfer rates than SATA III, but it's still well below most other NVMe SSDs. Sequential read and write rates top out in the 800 to 900 MB/s range while most NVMe drives are at least two times faster.
Up to two M.2 SSDs are supported on the motherboard, but only one of the two slots is full PCIe x4 as the other is PCIe x2.

GPU Performance
The integrated Radeon RX Vega 8 performs where we expect it to be when compared to laptops with Ryzen 2000U or 3000U series CPUs. Though it's a huge upgrade from the ancient Intel UHD 620 graphics, most current Core i7 Iris Xe solutions will outperform our fanless PC by 30 to 50 percent.
