Hi guys, I have just noticed that my windows key on my K65 RGB mini has been stuck red and if I try to alter colors or change anything, the rest of the keyboard changes totally fine but this is stuck at red. I dont know exactly when it happened. Any way to fix this issue?

In fact, you can do a search and a lot of people are having issues with the latest Microsoft update, the solution many have found had been to get a new driver for their bluetooth card from the manufacturer of said card and do not rely on the windows generic driver

A big reason why? Graphics acceleration and other essential features, handled in the past by separate chips or bulky cards, have been subsumed under the CPU. Nowadays, miniaturization is getting to the point where you can't go all that much smaller. You need to leave some space for ports to plug in a thing or two.

Our guide here will explore the nuances of today's smallest PCs. First, we've broken out the best mini PCs for 2023 that we've tested below, according to the usage case. Following that is a detailed breakdown of how to buy the right model for you. We wrap up below that with a chart-style spec breakout of all our top picks.

The Core i7 chip and Iris Xe integrated graphics give the NUC 12 Pro solid productivity performance, while three USB 3.0 ports, two Thunderbolt 4/USB-C ports, two HDMI ports, 2.5Gbps Ethernet, and Wi-Fi 6E give it a ton of connectivity. It's the current flagship from the mini-PC leader, with particular appeal to picky configuration choosers. Ready for a dual-monitor desk setup, the little Intel is a great choice for any office job shy of a professional workstation's.

If you're on a budget and not into the hobbyist aspect of bare-bones kits, the DP21 is a great way to get into mini PCs. The four antique USB 2.0 ports on the front panel aren't too useful, but you get four USB 3.2 ports (three Type-A, one Type-C), 4K HDMI and DisplayPort monitor connectors, Gigabit Ethernet, and audio jacks around back. Inside, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth share the space for up to 64GB of RAM, two 2.5-inch drives plus an M.2 SSD, and even an Intel 12th Gen CPU upgrade instead of the usual fixed mobile processor. What's not to like?

With ISV certifications and enterprise-class security, the P360 Ultra is a worthy alternative to the Z2 Mini or Apple's Mac Studio. Two Thunderbolt 4 ports join a USB-A 3.2 port and audio jack up front, with Gigabit and 2.5Gbps Ethernet ports, four more USB 3.2 ports, and three DisplayPorts (plus the GPU's four mini DisplayPorts) around back.

The models next up in size are a bit more dynamic, a bunch we might term the "NUC class." NUC stands for "Next Unit of Computing," a longtime initiative by Intel to spur the development of very small Windows-based desktop PCs using its mobile-centric processors. The chip giant has released a series of NUC-branded mini PC kits in its own line, and several of the traditional PC-component makers have followed suit with similar models (Asus with its VivoMini line, and Gigabyte with its Brix models, for example).

The NUC PCs and their ilk tend to be around 5 or 6 inches square, though Intel's 2020 NUC 9 Extreme (followed by NUC 11, 12, and 13 Extreme versions) changes this somewhat. The NUC 9 Extreme was a new mini PC platform that Intel is encouraging partner manufacturers to utilize for many different types of PCs, based on a core-computing module called the Compute Element. While it's technically a mini PC, full retail models from partners, such as the Razer Tomahawk, can be much larger than the small square boxes we're used to associating with NUCs.

Separate from those is a host of PCs that are undeniably small but follow their own shape and size rules. Zotac, a major player in small PCs (and one of the category's unsung innovators), offers a huge range of Zbox PCs that range in size from a fat smartphone to a bulky Discman. Shuttle, too, is another small-PC pioneer, offering machines in a host of shapes. On the macOS side of things, the venerable Apple Mac mini is a sleek, square silver box with rounded edges that saw a big update in in January 2023. Like the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, it received Apple's homegrown M1 and M2 processors, greatly increasing its performance.

This arrangement is what's called in reseller lingo a "bare-bones PC." You'll want to make sure you know what you are getting. In some cases, a given mini system is sold in bare-bones form, as well as in pre-configured versions with storage, RAM, and Windows present.

The form factor of the storage varies more. Depending on the mini PC you are looking at, you may need a 2.5-inch drive (a solid-state or hard drive, the size that goes into most full-size laptops), or a slimmer variety of SSD that's known as an M.2 SSD. Such drives are the size and shape of a stick of chewing gum. Check out our guide to these complicated drives at the link; if you need to install an M.2 SSD in a bare-bones desktop, you need to know about some interface/bus and sizing subtleties before you shop. (It's too easy, otherwise, to buy an incompatible drive.)

Since then, larger NUC models have even offered support for full-size GPUs, but in a notably larger form factor. Some of the Extreme Kit NUCs make room for a dual-slot graphics card up to 12 inches long. That opens up some serious productivity and gaming power, but the NUC Extremes really take you out of the true "mini" size category. It's all relative.

The thing is, if you're sticking with a truly small PC, a dedicated graphics chip is seldom an option, simply because of space and thermal-design reasons. The peppier Iris Xe integrated graphics introduced with Intel's 11th Generation "Tiger Lake" CPUs is one helpful solution for those unable to use a discrete GPU. Designed for mobile systems, it would also seem a perfect fit for mini PCs, and Iris Xe has shown solid improvement over the built-in graphics on older Intel chips.

Some mini PCs include mounting kits that let you attach them to the back of an LCD monitor. Check for that feature if space savings of that kind is important to you. And check the back of your monitor for mounting holes, which, if present, normally comply with the VESA mounting standard.

How to tell? Most of the mini PCs on the market make use of Intel silicon, and the dead giveaway whether you're looking at a mobile CPU or a desktop one is usually the letter at the end of the processor's number. Look for a "T" or a "K," or no letter at all, as a dead giveaway for a desktop chip (for example, Core i5-9400T), or a "U" or "Y" (or possibly a "G3," "G5," or "G7") for a mobile one. The chip family and generation being equal, you can generally expect more muscle (usually a consequence of more cores and higher base clocks) from the desktop version of, say, a Core i5 than from a mobile Core i5.

In addition, Intel chips ending in "H" are a higher-powered grade of mobile processor, occupying the middle ground between the mainstream mobile chips and all-out socketed desktop chips. They are uncommon in mini desktops, though. There are now some occasional AMD flavors as well, such as the AMD Ryzen V1605B in the ECS Liva Q3 Plus.

What to glean from that mobile-versus-desktop insight? Our benchmark testing will quantify the trends, but none of the mobile-grade chips in these small PCs is a proper substitute for a desktop chip if you're a heavy multitasker, or a media pro who needs real processing muscle, say, to convert lots of video or photo files from one format to another. In most cases, the CPU is the single biggest factor in the cost of a mini PC, so keep an eye on the performance numbers in our reviews for a relative idea of what you are getting.

Rule of thumb? For light office work, you can get by with a mobile or desktop Core i3- or Pentium-based mini PC, but you'll want to err on the side of a higher-end, desktop-strength Core chip if you'll need extra pep for serious multitasking, file conversions, heavy calculations, or multimedia content manipulation. Celeron chips, meanwhile, are okay for only the very lightest of tasks, or undemanding digital display/signage use.

We've upgraded to Windows 10 and have about 10 late 2012 mac mini classroom computers with HDMI. In OS X the HDMI Audio works no problem, however in windows it doesn't even see it as an option. I've tried installing a few different version of the Intel Display Audio driver, but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else had this issue or gotten it work?

Even after checking the box to show hidden devices I don't see HDMI listed in device manager under audio inputs. Thats why I'm thinking its the intel driver not talking to the device. I have several late 2014 mac mini's where this works fine on the same HDMI audio setup.

Now when i try to connect to my windows laptop as Bluetooth speaker they do get detected and paired. But windows refuses to show it as a Sound Output device. So cannot have my browser or any other app sound over Bluetooth.

I checked in Devices settings - seems a Microsoft driver is loaded and is categorized as audio device - but is not picked by windows as audio 'output Device' as stated. 


I tried the same with my iPhone - that is to add the same Stereo Paired Nest Mini on my iPhone 12 - it got paired and works smoothly as single device.

As mentioned by me in the updates, i was able to connect the stereo nest mini pair nicely on my iPhone. On windows it gets detected, paired and connected. But windows 10 refuse to see this as a audio output device. So even though nest mini stereo gets connected, no entry of it comes in 'audio output' device. Latest windows update (no driver update pending) is there.

This is definitely an odd limitation, I can connect my iPhone and Android to these together. Why with windows i have to manage with one speaker. Show it to your BT driver teams and they can fix it or they can show it to windows BT driver teams. 17dc91bb1f
