The NComputing RX300 is an ARM-based thin client built on the Raspberry Pi 3 platform. It drives one display and has Wi-Fi and one Ethernet port. The closest Thinvent match is the Thinvent Micro 6 Pro Mini PC, which uses an ARM Cortex A55 processor, also in the ARM family, with a 4 GB RAM and 32 GB storage configuration. Its Wi-Fi uses a dual-antenna, dual-band design.

Key differences
-
The Thinvent Micro 6 Pro uses the Amlogic S905X3 chip, which is the same ARM family as the Raspberry Pi 3 platform in the RX300.
-
The Thinvent Micro 6 Pro has a dual-antenna, dual-band Wi-Fi design.
-
The Thinvent Micro 6 Pro is fanless and has an aluminium housing with an anodised finish.
-
The Thinvent Micro 6 Pro has a 1 MB processor cache, a microSD slot and a USB 3.0 port.
-
We could not confirm the RX300's RAM, storage, cores or operating system, so those points are not compared here.
Which one should you choose?
Choose the NComputing RX300 if you use NComputing's vSpace Pro or VERDE VDI and want its supported platform. Choose the Thinvent Micro 6 Pro Mini PC if you want a fanless ARM mini PC with dual-band Wi-Fi and a known set of specifications, running Thinux Embedded Linux.
