Topton F12 mini PC packs Meteor Lake-H and Thunderbolt 4 into a compact case
The Topton F12 houses an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H, a powerful laptop processor featuring six performance cores with boost clock speeds of up to 4.8 GHz, along with eight efficiency cores and an Intel Arc iGPU, which offers sufficient performance for older or less demanding games. If stronger gaming performance is required, an external graphics card can be connected via Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C).
HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1 and Thunderbolt 4 allow up to three 4K monitors to be operated simultaneously, with a maximum of one 8K screen supported. The mini PC provides two SO-DIMM slots for up to 96 GB DDR5-5600 RAM and space for two M.2-2280 SSDs, which are connected via PCIe 4.0 and allow the Topton F12 to have up to 8 TB of storage. Networking options available include Wi-Fi 6 and 2.5 Gbit/s Ethernet.
Bluetooth 5.2 allows the use of wireless headphones. In addition to the Thunderbolt 4 port, the mini PC also has three USB-A ports (10 Gbit/s), a 3.5 mm audio output and a mic input at the front as well as two 2.5 Gbit/s Ethernet ports, a USB 2.0, an HDMI 2.1 and a DisplayPort 2.1 at the back. This layout is somewhat disadvantageous, as all the fast USB ports are at the front, meaning that certain accessories also have to be connected at the front instead of the rear which would be far less conspicuous.
Prices and availability
The Topton F12 Mini-PC is now available via AliExpress. The barebones version with Core Ultra 7 155H, but without RAM or SSD, costs $419, including free shipping. A variant with 32 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD is available for $599.
