Key differences
-
More processing power: The Thinvent Treo Mini PC with Intel Core i5-1240P has 12 cores, against the 2 cores of the Qotom Q355G4's Core i5-5200U.
-
Higher RAM ceiling: Thinvent Treo Mini PC models support up to 64 GB of RAM, while the Qotom Q355G4 supports a single DDR3L SO-DIMM slot.
-
Larger storage range: Thinvent Treo Mini PC models support SSD capacities up to 2 TB.
-
Newer processor generation: The Thinvent Treo range uses 12th and 13th generation Intel Core processors, against the 5th generation Core i5-5200U.
-
Networking trade-off: The Qotom Q355G4 is built around four Gigabit LAN ports. Thinvent Treo Mini PC models offer dual LAN in some configurations, so buyers who need four LAN ports should check the port count on the specific Thinvent model.
Which one should you choose?
Choose the Qotom Q355G4 if your project depends on its four-port Intel Gigabit LAN layout and AES-NI support on a Core i5-5200U platform. Choose the Thinvent Treo Mini PC if you need more cores, higher RAM capacity and larger SSD storage for demanding industrial or general computing tasks.
