ASRock Beebox Review: A Fanless Braswell UCFF PC

Stefan Mileschin · 15th July 2015, 10:00

ASRock had taken an early lead in serving the mini-PC market, thanks to its Core / Vision series units. Based on motherboards meant for the notebook market (smaller than mini-ITX, but larger than pico-ITX), they have been regularly refreshed since the ION days. Strangely, the company didn't have any play in the NUC form-factor that has provided growth in the desktop space over the last couple of years. That changes with the arrival of Intel's 14nm Braswell. The ASRock Beebox is a NUC based on the Intel Celeron N3000, and carries some unique features that include fanless operation and a USB Type-C port in the front panel. Read on for our review of the unit to see what it brings to the market.
