What is a small PC chassis?
A small PC chassis is the compact enclosure that holds a computer's processor, memory, storage and power board. Thinvent builds its mini PCs in small chassis that fit behind a monitor, under a desk or inside a control cabinet. A small chassis keeps the system footprint low without removing the main computing parts.
The Thinvent mini PC range uses Intel, AMD and ARM processors. The Aero series uses Intel Core i3, i5, i7 and Core Ultra 5 processors with 6 to 12 cores. The Treo series uses an Intel Celeron N5095A and AMD Ryzen 5 7430U processors. The Micro 6 Pro uses an ARM Cortex-A55 processor with 4 cores.
