Zotac announced a new Pico-PC (tiny size computer). That is, we are speaking of the Zotac Pico PI226. So, that comes with an aluminum chassis with dimensions of 96.5 x 63.5 x 7.6 mm thick. Where inside it hides a SoC Intel Celeron N4000, consisting of a dual-core configuration @ 1.10 / 2.60 GHz. That is accompanied by a graphics Intel UHD Graphics 600 with 12EU @ 650 MHz giving a TDP set of 6W. Also, this SoC is accompanied by an appreciative 4 GB of LPDDR3 RAM. That works together with 32 GB of expandable eMMC flash storage using a microSD card of up to 256 GB capacity or an external storage unit.

Despite its small size, the Zotac Pico PI226 does not forget to offer WIFi 802.11ac connectivity. That can reach a data rate of up to 896 Mbps. Also, there is Bluetooth 4.2 and provides two USB 3.1 Type-C ports. And we have a video output via a USB Type- C as well as an HDMI 1.4a via an adapter. Also, the hidden chassis itself functions as a passive heat sink to prevent the SoC from reaching high temperatures. And that is expected to go on sale in the second quarter of 2018 at a price of around 200 euros. Apparently, you can install any OS, from Linux to Windows 10.
