Have you sneaked on a Mac Mini but realized you don't really want to leave the Windows world? You are not alone. The small format is attractive — neat, smooth and barely takes up space on your desk. But what happens when you want more performance, more possibilities to upgrade and a price that is not dependent on Apple tax?
For those who want the same agile format but with better performance, greater flexibility and a better price per gigabyte, there is an alternative. Compliq offers a compact PC that not only matches the Mac Mini, but surpasses it in several respects.
AMD Ryzen 9 7900 — the power you need
The heart of Compliq's compact PC is an AMD Ryzen 9 7900. With its 12 cores and 24 threads at 3.7 GHz (boost up to 5.4 GHz), it is a processor capable of handling heavy tasks without losing speed.
This PC is built for users who want power enough for multitasking, programming, video and image editing and even gaming. Compared to Apple's M2 and M3 chips, the Ryzen 9 offers significantly more raw power and flexibility.
• Better multi-threaded performance, making it perfect for coding, rendering, and creative applications.
• Higher boost frequency, providing faster response in demanding applications.
• Ability to choose your own graphics card for heavier workloads, something that is impossible with Mac Mini.
Flexibility without limitations
One of the biggest drawbacks of the Mac Mini is the limited upgrade capability. Compliq's compact PC eliminates that problem. You can choose how much RAM and storage you want from the start and easily upgrade in the future.
The modular construction method allows you to customize the computer as needed. Want more storage? Add an extra SSD. Do you need more RAM? Replace and expand without being locked at factory configurations.
Storage and RAM — more for your money
Apple is notorious for its expensive upgrades of RAM and storage. Choosing a Mac Mini with more than the default configuration can quickly become a costly story.
Comparison of costs between the Mac Mini and Compliq's compact PC:
• RAM upgrade: Apple charges significantly more for additional RAM compared to what equivalent modules cost in the PC market.
• Storage: A 1TB SSD in a Mac Mini can cost several times more than the equivalent drive to a PC.
• Modular Upgrade: With a PC, you can buy and install upgrades yourself when you need it, instead of paying premium prices at the time of purchase.
Compact format without compromise
One of the great advantages of the Mac Mini is its size. It is a computer that easily fits on the desktop or can be hidden behind a screen. The same goes for Compliq's compact PC. It has a small format but does not compromise on performance or the ability to customize the hardware as needed.
Why choose Compliq's compact PC over a Mac Mini?
• Better performance — The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 is more powerful than Apple's M2 and M3 chips, especially for multi-threaded tasks.
• More flexibility — Modular design allows you to upgrade RAM, storage and other components.
• MUCH lower cost per gigabyte — RAM and storage can be replaced and expanded without paying Apple's premium prices.
• Same compact format — Takes up no more space than a Mac Mini and can easily be hidden behind a screen.
A smarter choice for those who want more freedom
For those who want a compact, powerful and flexible computer, the Mac Mini is far from the only option. Compliq's compact PC offers better performance, more upgrade options and a more cost-effective solution without compromising on size or functionality.
