ASRock announces 4X4 BOX-7000/D5 mini PCs with AMD Ryzen 7030U processors and dual USB4 ports

ASRock is updating the 4X4 BOX mini PC lineup with new models that support the latest Ryzen 7000U mobile processors with Zen 3+ cores. While the processors might not be seen as a major upgrade over the existing Ryzen 5000 with Zen 3 cores, the new 4x4 BOX-7000/D5 mini PCs still represent a significant step forward as they are among the first AMD-powered devices to support no less than two USB4 ports.

Additionally, the new models bring support for the faster DDR5 standard with two SO-DIMM slots that allow for up to 64 GB of DDR5-4800 RAM. Processor options include the Ryzen 7 7735U with 8 cores / 16 threads + RDNA2 Radeon 680M iGPU and the Ryzen 5 7535U with 6 cores / 12 threads + RDNA 2 Radeon 660M. The storage side features a SATA 3 slot for compatible HDDs and SDDs, as well as an M.2 2280 slot for a PCIe 4.0 X4 NVme SSD.

Apart from the dual USB4 connectors, the port selection also includes HDMI 2.1 and DP 1.4 video outs for a total of 4x 4K outputs, 1x USB-A 3.2 Gen 2, 2x USB 2.0, a headphone jack and dual LAN jacks (2.5 GbE + 1 GbE). Wireless connectivity is ensured via the included M.2 module with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 support. The motherboard comes with a Realtek ALC233 HD Audio codec and a TPM 2.0 chip. System chassis measures 110.0 x 117.5 x 47.85mm.
