KING of Fanless 2.5GbE Mini PC Routers and Firewalls Now with Intel Core i5 Alder Lake

This is the new KING of fanless 6x 2.5GbE mini PCs. The CWWK Intel Core i5-1235U offers much more performance in a fanless package. With the new Intel Alder Lake 15W chip, it provides plenty of cores but also P-core single-thread performance. There are, however, quirks to this new "king" so you will want to watch this video. These are quirks we do not see in the Protectli unit, but we get a lot more performance.
