Fall is here and it looks like Intel has finally managed to fix the inventory issues that plagued its Core chip. Chuwi, a competing computer brand from China, has announced that it will sell an updated version of its CoreBox business PC, called the CoreBox Pro, for just $399 (about $310 / AU$550). There's a catch, though: the little workstation won't be on sale for a few weeks, so all you can do is wait for the Indiegogo page to go live (yes, it's a crowdfunding effort) and the campaign. it closed. . What do I get, you ask? Well, wait because you're going to have a great time. The CoreBox Pro features an Intel Core i3-1035G1 (Ice Lake), a dual-core processor that scored over 5,000 points in PassMark's popular benchmarking solution. There's also 12GB of LPDDR4 RAM in dual-channel configuration, a 256GB PCIe SSD that Chuwi claims can hit 2GB/s in read/write speeds, a pair of Gigabit Ethernet ports, and Intel's connectivity chip. AX200 WiFi6. Everything is inserted into a miniature box of only 2 liters in volume. Oh, there's also a Thunderbolt 3 port which should let you daisy chain a pair of 4K monitors for productivity tasks (not gaming, as the UHD Graphics 620 is too weak for anything but office tasks). We've also confirmed that Chuwi will soon be introducing an AMD workstation, likely based on the same chassis the Chinese manufacturer likes to recycle designs for speed and, well, economies of scale.
