Mini PC maker ACEPC has unveiled its first computer powered by an Intel Meteor Lake processor. The upcoming ACEPC WizBox AI features an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor with 16 CPU cores, 22 threads, Intel Arc integrated graphics, and a neural processing unit for hardware-accelerated AI.
ACEPEC will announce pricing and detailed specs on February 1st, 2024 and begin taking pre-orders on March 1. But the company has already shared some key details about the upcoming mini PC. Update: The ACEPC WizBox AI is up for pre-order for $1000 and up.
The pricing is a little higher than I’d expected when ACEPC first began teasing this little computer in late January, as the entry-level model has just an Intel Core Ultra 5 125H processor. But it does also come with 32GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD, a 2.5 Gb Ethernet port, WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 4.2 support, and a 2-year warranty.
The WizBox AI supports up to three 4K displays, two SODIMM slots with support for up to 64GB of DDR5 memory, and ships with up to a 2TB M.2 PCIe Gen 4×4 solid user-replaceable state drive. There are two M.2 2280 slots for storage.
Ports include:
- 2 x HDMI 2.0 (4K/60Hz)
- 1 x USB Type-C (Data & video)
- 4 x USB 3.0 Type-A (5 Gbps)
- 1 x 2.5 Gb Ethernet
- 1 x 3.5mm audio
The computer measures 5.8″ x 5.8″ x 2.2 and weighs about 1.9 pounds.
ACEPC isn’t the first company to unveil a Meteor Lake-powered mini PC. The Asus NUC 14 Pro and Pro+, Asus ExpertCenter PN65, MINISFORUM UH185, ASRock NUC Ultra 100 Box, and Geekom IT14 Pro are also expected to hit the streets soon with Intel’s 14th-gen mobile processors inside.
