Günstig auf Windows 11 umsteigen mit gebrauchten Mini-PCs | c’t uplink
Wie gut sich generalüberholte Mini-PCs aus Unternehmen für den Umstieg auf Windows 11 eignen, darüber sprechen wir diese Woche im Podcast c’t uplink.

Gebrauchtkauf spart Geld und schont die Umwelt. Doch wie schlagen sich aufbereitete Business-Minis gegen einen Billig-PC mit aktueller Technik?

ASRock DeskMini Q870 is a 1.92 liter desktop with a mini-STX mainboard and an Intel Q870 chipset with support for an Intel Core Ultra 9 285 24-core desktop processor and DDR5-6400 memory. https://winfuture.de/news,151066.html #ASRockDeskminiQ870 #ASRock #DeskMini #Computex2025 #MiniPC
So someone in FLOSS #DeltaChat group said #ARM #SBCs are terrible at computation power. And that a #miniPC has much better computation power comparing to something like #RaspberryPi. I had plans for a #homeserver and I wanted to use my #LibreComputer #Alta and utilize its #npu.
Libre Computer boards have really good prices comparing to the performance they provide comparing to other ARM SBCs such as #RPi. However, comparing them with a mini or even #microPC, an old micro PC provides better computation power.
LibreComputer #RenegadeElite features a #Rockchip #rk3399, 4GB DDR4 and costs 76 USD:

On the other hand, this renewed #HP #EliteDesk is 100 USD and with far better specs:
https://www.amazon.com/HP-EliteDesk-Mini-Desktop-Computer/dp/B08L9NB7RD?rnid=2257851011&th=1
Maybe it's not fair compare a renewed product with a brand new one. But it seems for having a homeserver to #selfhost things, if we factor out power usage, an old mini PC is better than a new ARM SBC.
However, if we also consider power usage, the abovementioned LibreComputer board consumes only 15 W under full load. And the old Ryzen 5 on that HP mini PC has a TDP of 35 W. This affects running cost of your homeserver and also the cost for the #UPS. But for myself, there isn't a big deal between 15W and 35W.
Edit: Comments or advises are very welcome!
