Recently, whether it is a notebook or a desktop, it is fully evolving to the Core 12 series, before we have introduced the i5 and i7 models, this time we look at the i3, that is, the i3-12100 computer What are the characteristics?
As you can see, although the i3 is also a Core 12 series, it has no performance core, that is, a simple 4 core, 8 threads, and the highest frequency of 4.3GHz. The 12100F does not have integrated graphics, while the i3-12100 has integrated UHD 730 graphics. The base power consumption is 60W, and the maximum power consumption is 89W.
On Master Lu, the i3-12100 score is 430,000 points, which is relatively not high, but the performance as an i3 is acceptable and absolutely enough. In contrast, the i5-12400 processor scored 530,000 points, about 23% higher.
Looking at it this way, although i3-12100 is not strong, it is definitely not weak, and the daily office is also a good hand. Without further ado, let's take a look at two lightweight office computers.
The first is the Lenovo Tianyi 510S, priced at 2999 yuan.
This is a set of complete machines, send 21.45 inch monitor. In terms of configuration, it adopts i3-12100 processor, 8GB DDR4 3200MHz memory, 1TB 7200 rPM HDD. Built-in WiFi 6 with a small 7.4L chassis.
Its interface is very rich, with Type-C and USB A in front of it, making it easy to connect various devices. Pre-installed Windows 11 system, providing 3 years of on-site service.
Other configurations of this product are not high, such as 8GB of memory, 7200 rpm hard disk, etc., but provide a monitor, which can reduce the overall cost and is suitable for the daily office use of the company's employees.
The other is the HP Star series TP01, priced at 2969 yuan.
This Star Series TP01 is also an i3-12100 processor, 8GB DDR4 2933MHz memory, in addition to a 512GB PCIE SSD, UHD730 core display, H570 chipset. It has two mechanical hard disk slots for easy expansion of hard disks.
Its interface is rich, there are as many as 9 USB, including Type-C interface. After filling in the information, it provides 5 years of on-site service, which is 2 years more than Lenovo.
In fact, due to the small size of the chassis, there is no huge unique display, the durability of such commercial computers is good, and the probability of failure in 3 years is also very large.
Well, if you want to buy a low-cost and reliable computer, you can consider both. In addition, plus 400, 500 yuan, upgrade to i5-12400 can also be, the score is 100,000 points higher, the performance is 1/6 more expensive, you can also consider it on demand.
