Foxconn’s fanless, AMD-powered mini-desktop now available for $250

  • Tweet

The Foxconn AT-5570 is a small form-factor desktop computer with a low power AMD C-70 processor and Radeon HD 7290 graphics. First introduced a few months ago, the AT-5570 is is now available for purchase in the US.

Newegg is selling a barebones model (without memory, storage, or an operating system) for $250.

While that might seem like a high price for a low power computer that’s useless unless you spend money to equip it with storage and RAM, what you get is a tiny desktop that can run Windows, Linux, or other operating systems. It also has a fanless design, which means that if you use a solid state disk instead of a hard drive, there won’t be any moving parts to make any noise at all.

The Foxconn AT-5570 case measures 7.5″ x 5.3″ x 1.5 and features 2 USB 3.0 ports, 4 USB 2.0 ports DVI and HDMI ports, an audio jack, a memory card reader, and Gigabyte Ethernet.

It supports up to 8GB of DDR3 memory and has a SATA 3.0Gb/s port for a hard drive or solid state disk.

The AMD C-70 chip is a low-power, dual-core x86 processor that’s most commonly used for inexpensive laptops. It’s about as powerful as an Intel Atom chip, but offers higher-performance graphics capabilities.

    Looks quite nice. Towards the end of its life, the dual-core Atom/ION predecessor to this was being blown out for about £130 (US$200) including RAM, hard disk, clip-on DVD-RW and wireless deskset. Would be very tempting if this went the same way!

    Why is is so much more than similar models with the amd E-350 or E-450?

    It seems good device for $250 if they offer little bit of memory and storage.

    that’s a pretty nice price.

    for 250, I’d rather go for Intel’s NUC. Granted this is fanless, but the performance differential of the NUC is way more enough to make up for it. No idea how much control the bios gives you on the NUC, but if they allow you to underclock and undervolt, the NUC might be able to get away with the fan never turning on and still outperform the C-70
