ASUS PN50, a 0.64-liter mini-PC with an AMD Ryzen 4000 APU

Compact systems or mini-PCs are becoming increasingly popular with users. Initially these compact systems were more intended for office automation, but are increasingly being created to meet more demands. The ASUS PN50 is an example of a compact solution for all kinds of uses, including gaming. We can use it to play thanks to the fact that it is based on AMD Ryzen 4000U processors with Vega iGPU.

These ASUS PN50s are based on Renoir processors using the Zen2 @ 7nm architecture. Renoir processors are characterized by being APUs with good performance and a really tight consumption. As it has a Vega iGPU, we will have power for gaming or for any task without the need for a dedicated graphics.
