The HP t620 is a fanless thin client that runs Windows Embedded Standard 7E. The closest Thinvent match is the Thinvent Neo S Thin Client with an Intel Celeron J1900 processor (4 cores), a fanless passive cooling design and a choice of operating systems, including Windows 11 Pro. Thinvent also has fanless Industrial PCs with more memory and storage, and a fanless Micro 5R thin client for lightweight Linux deployments.

Key differences
-
The Thinvent IPC1 has up to 32 GB of RAM and up to 2 TB of SSD storage, compared with the HP t620's 16 GB RAM and 32 GB storage maximums.
-
The Thinvent Neo S and IPC1 both offer fanless passive cooling and a choice of operating systems, including Windows 11 Pro, Ubuntu Linux and Thinux Embedded Linux.
-
The Thinvent Neo S has a 128 GB SSD, which is larger than the 32 GB maximum listed for the HP t620.
-
The Thinvent Neo S uses an Intel Celeron J1900 processor, the same chip family as Intel Celeron processors. The HP t620 processor is not confirmed in our data, so a direct processor comparison cannot be made.
-
The Thinvent Micro 5R is a smaller, lower-memory device aimed at Linux-based thin client deployments, with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 built in.
-
The HP t620 runs Windows Embedded Standard 7E. Thinvent's Windows options use Windows 11 Pro or Windows 11 IoT.
Which one should you choose?
Choose the HP t620 if you need a fanless thin client for an existing Windows Embedded Standard 7E environment. Choose a Thinvent alternative if you need a fanless device with a current Windows 11 Pro or Linux operating system, larger storage, or more RAM: the Thinvent Neo S for a compact thin client, or the Thinvent IPC1 for higher memory and storage.
