Performance
The Intel Core Ultra 5 325 processor powers applications with four Performance cores while four low-power E-cores handle background tasks. The Performance cores have a base speed of 2.1 GHz with a 4.5 GHz Max Turbo Boost 3.0 frequency. An integrated NPU, capable of handling 47 trillion operations per second (TOPS), accelerates AI workloads. Integrated Intel Graphics deliver rich visuals.
Enable Smarter AI Assistant
This mini PC supports next-generation agentic AI applications such as OpenClaw, enabling AI assistants to automate everyday tasks, including content creation, file organization, and cross-platform workflow coordination.
High-Speed USB
The front panel includes one USB-C and two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports for up to 10 Gb/s devices. The rear panel includes two 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 4 ports and two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports.
Thunderbolt 4
Thunderbolt 4 is a hardware interface that utilizes the reversible USB-C connector and features a maximum throughput of 40 Gb/s when used with compatible devices. The connector also transmits data via USB4 at up to 20 Gb/s, and dual-bandwidth DisplayPort allows you to connect either one 8K monitor or up to two 4K displays simultaneously. Additionally, you can daisy chain up to six devices from a single Thunderbolt 4 port.
Multi-Monitor Support
