Does a Thinvent mini PC have a dedicated graphics card?
No. None of the Thinvent mini PCs in this range includes a dedicated (discrete) graphics card. All models use integrated graphics built into the processor. Integrated graphics share system memory and draw less power, which suits compact, fanless-capable and energy-efficient systems.
Integrated graphics in the Thinvent range
The range uses processors from Intel and AMD, plus one ARM processor. Each processor has its own integrated graphics unit:
-
Intel Core i3-1215U and i5-1335U: 12th and 13th generation processors with 6 and 10 cores. Suitable for office work, multitasking, video playback and light content editing.
-
Intel Core i7-1255U: 12th generation, 10 cores, up to 4.7 GHz, with Dual LAN.
-
Intel Core 5 120U and Core Ultra 5 125U: 14th generation processors with 10 and 12 cores.
-
AMD Ryzen 5 7430U: 7000 Series, 6 cores, up to 4.3 GHz, 16 MB cache.
-
Intel Celeron N5095A: 11th generation, 4 cores, for basic desktop and light tasks.
-
ARM Cortex A55: 4 cores, 1.9 GHz, for embedded and Linux-based applications.

Choosing a system for graphics-heavy tasks
If your workload needs a dedicated GPU for 3D rendering, gaming or CAD, a Thinvent mini PC with integrated graphics is not the right choice. Thinvent mini PCs suit office, digital signage, kiosk, point-of-sale, edge computing and industrial monitoring tasks, where integrated graphics handle multiple displays and 4K video output.
Thinvent mini PCs with integrated graphics
Thinvent has Aero and Treo mini PCs with Intel and AMD processors, 8 to 16 GB RAM, 256 to 512 GB SSD storage, and Windows 11 Pro or Ubuntu Linux. The Micro 6 Pro uses an ARM processor with Thinux embedded Linux. Choose a model by processor performance, memory and operating system to match your application.
