Intel Gemini Lake has become the first choice for many low-power mini-platforms, but most of them use the relatively cheap and low-end Celeron J4005. ASRock's latest release of 'J5005-ITX' uses the highest-end Pentium Silver J5005 on the platform.
Pentium Silver J5005 is a four-core, four-threaded, clocked at 1.5-2.8GHz, a three-level cache of 4MB, an integrated nuclear display UHD 605, a frequency of 250-800MHz, a thermal design power consumption of 10W, and the game is much stronger (of course, the price is also half that ), And still no fan, an aluminum heat sink can be completely silent.
The J5005-ITX board uses a simple 2-phase power supply circuit and super alloy materials. The 24-pin ATX main power supply provides two DDR4-2400 SO-DIMM memory slots, a maximum capacity of 8GB, and a PCI-E 2.0 x1 expansion slot ( Can not be installed alone significant), four SATA 6Gbps disk interface (of which two from the Cheung master ASM1061 master), a M.2-2230 KeyE wireless network card slot, Realek RTL8111H Gigabit Ethernet, Realtek ALC892 7.1-channel sound card.
The back interface has two PS/2s, one VGA, one DVI, one HDMI, two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 (surge protection), one fiber S/PDIF and five analog audio ports.
UHD 605 supports hardware encoding and decoding of 10-bit H.265 and other video formats, which is very suitable for building 4K HTPC.
Well, it is estimated that it will not be less than 1,500.
