GIGABYTE’s BRIX Mainstream Series AI Mini PC Now Available
Engineered for a broad range of applications — from smart homes and commercial systems to content creation and edge computing — the BRIX Mainstream series delivers exceptional performance in a remarkably compact 0.46-liter chassis with a sleek 3.5 cm profile. Despite its small footprint, it offers powerful computing, flexible expansion, and an energy-efficient, eco-conscious design.
At the heart of the BRIX Mainstream are configurations featuring the Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 255H and Ultra 5 225H processors, paired with Intel® Arc™ Graphics and an upgraded Xe LPG+ microarchitecture supporting up to 8 Xe cores. The combined CPU, GPU, and NPU power achieves AI performance up to 96 TOPS — a 2.5x boost over the previous generation — enabling advanced computing for tasks like visual recognition, rendering, and real-time AI inference. The system also supports up to 96 GB DDR5-6400 memory and dual M.2 NVMe SSDs, ensuring fast speeds and generous storage within an ultra-compact 112 x 119 x 34 mm frame.
Despite its size, the BRIX Mainstream is rich in connectivity. It supports up to four 4K UHD displays via two HDMI 2.1 ports and two USB Type-C (DisplayPort Alt Mode) outputs, offering extensive multi-display flexibility. For data and peripherals, it includes three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, while networking needs are covered by 2.5GbE LAN, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth® 5.4, ensuring high bandwidth and ultra-low latency for cloud computing, edge AI, and real-time communications.
A standout feature is its pioneering USB Power Delivery (PD) system, enabling efficient power input for reduced energy consumption. Combined with VESA mount compatibility, the BRIX Mainstream is easy to integrate into tight or custom installations. Its low-noise design also makes it ideal for extended use in both home and business environments where quiet operation is critical.
