Gigabyte has unveiled their latest all-in-one PC this week in the form of the Gigabyte GB-AEDT Whitebox, which is a 21.5-inch system based on Intel’s Thin Mini-ITX standard. The beauty of this system is that it can be upgraded using integrated and standardized modules, enabling you to upgrade its components in the future if needed. This modularity ensures that users can keep their systems up-to-date with the latest technology without needing to replace the entire unit.
Advanced Display and Performance
The Gigabyte GB-AEDT is equipped with a full HD touchscreen display, providing a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. This ensures crisp and clear visuals, making it ideal for both professional and entertainment purposes. The touchscreen functionality adds an extra layer of interactivity, allowing users to navigate through applications and media with ease.
Under the hood, the system supports Intel’s 32nm LGA1155 processors, which offer a balance of performance and energy efficiency. Users can configure the system with up to 8GB of DDR3-1333 memory, ensuring smooth multitasking and efficient handling of demanding applications. This makes the GB-AEDT suitable for a wide range of uses, from office work to multimedia consumption.
Connectivity and Expandability
The Gigabyte GB-AEDT comes with a variety of connectivity options to cater to different needs. It is fitted with HDMI output, allowing users to connect the system to external displays or projectors for presentations or extended screen space. Additionally, there is an optional TV tuner card, which can transform the PC into a versatile entertainment hub, enabling users to watch and record live TV.
For those who need to transfer data from various devices, the system includes a 4-in-1 memory card reader, supporting SD, MMC, MS, and MS Pro formats. This feature is particularly useful for photographers and videographers who need to quickly access and transfer media files.
Gigabyte explains:
“Whether you want a turnkey, a highly customized, or only a barebone product, the GB-AEDT solution can answer your needs as the entire system is broken down into integrated and standardized modules that can be easily and quickly upgraded or replaced,”
Other features include SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports, which offer faster data transfer rates compared to USB 2.0, making it easier to move large files quickly. The system also includes GbE LAN for reliable wired internet connectivity, ensuring stable and fast network performance.
The GB-AEDT is equipped with a pair of 3W HD speakers, providing decent audio output for everyday use. For those who require more robust audio performance, external speakers or headphones can be connected. The slim-type optical bay allows for the addition of a DVD or Blu-ray drive, catering to users who still rely on optical media.
For storage, the system includes an mSATA slot, which can be used to add a solid-state drive (SSD) for faster boot times and improved overall system responsiveness. The inclusion of ErP (Energy-Related Products Directive) compliance ensures that the system meets energy efficiency standards, reducing its environmental impact and potentially lowering electricity costs.
Gigabyte has yet to release any information on shipping dates or the availability of its Gigabyte GB-AEDT all-in-one PC. However, given the impressive specifications and modular design, it is likely to attract significant interest from both consumers and businesses looking for a versatile and upgradable all-in-one solution. As always, we will keep you updated with the latest information as it becomes available.
