ServeTheHome | $299 2.5GbE Mini PC The Cheap Topton M6 @ServeTheHomeVideo | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 5 minutes ago.
We take a look at a $299 Intel Jasper Lake-powered Topton M6 mini PC that has features like 2.5GbE and WiFi 6. Intel has made great progress in its efficient cores with Tremont. This is a solid upgrade over the J4125 generation and has us excited for the future. There are some major caveats to this system though.
