Are Thinvent thin clients suited to AI video generation?
No. AI video generation needs a discrete GPU with large video memory, and the Thinvent range does not include one. The Thinvent Neo S thin clients use the Intel Celeron J1900 processor, which has 4 cores, a maximum frequency of 2.4 GHz and 2 MB of cache. These models run general office, kiosk and display tasks. They are not designed for rendering or generating AI video.
