Compact barebone with Celeron N3050

The Intel BOXNUC5CPYH is a new barebone mini PC built around a dual-core Celeron N3050 processor running at 2.16 GHz with a 6 W TDP. It arrives without memory or storage, providing one 204-pin SO-DIMM slot for DDR3L 1600/1333 modules up to 8 GB and a SATA 6.0 Gb/s connector for a 2.5-inch drive up to 9.5 mm thick. Integrated Intel HD Graphics drives one HDMI 1.4a and one VGA output.

Suits basic desktop and signage builds.

This unit fits builders who need a small, low-power system for office tasks, web browsing or digital signage and who will supply their own DDR3L SO-DIMM and 2.5-inch SATA drive. Buyers who want more than 8 GB of memory, multi-display performance beyond two legacy outputs, or a processor capable of sustained multi-threaded workloads should look at something else.

Single SO-DIMM slot limits memory to 8 GB DDR3L

The board provides only one 204-pin SO-DIMM slot supporting DDR3L at 1.35 V, capping total system memory at 8 GB. This single-slot, single-channel layout is the specification that decides whether the platform can meet your workload’s memory capacity and bandwidth requirements.

Questions about this item

Does the barebone kit include RAM or a 2.5" drive, or do I need to buy them separately?

The kit ships without memory and without a 2.5" HDD or SSD. You must add one DDR3L 1.35V SO-DIMM up to 8 GB and a 2.5" SATA drive up to 9.5 mm thick.

Which DDR3L speed should I choose, 1333 or 1600 MHz?

Both 1333 and 1600 MHz DDR3L modules are supported; the system will run at the speed of the installed module, so either works.

What resolution can I expect from the HDMI 1.4a port with the integrated Intel HD Graphics?

HDMI 1.4a supports up to 4K at 30 Hz; the Celeron N3050 integrated graphics will drive typical office and media workloads at 1080p comfortably.
