Appearance:
Desktop is generally divided into host, monitor, keyboard, mouse, audio and other external devices. These devices are connected by various wires, which are very troublesome to use and messy to put on the desktop.
But the all-in-one machine does not have this problem. The all-in-one machine is connected by a simple wireless line, and all connections can be completed by only one power cord, thus reducing the speaker cable, camera cable, video cable, network cable, keyboard cable and mouse cable. Therefore, if you choose to buy an all-in-one machine, your computer will be neat and beautiful on the desktop, which will save you a lot of space.
2. Performance:
In terms of performance, simply put, the all-in-one machine is an upgraded version of the notebook and the desktop machine is an upgraded version of the all-in-one machine. In the past, we all chose to buy the original host because the hardware was incompatible. At present, the IT hardware on the market has basically solved the compatibility problem, so it is so popular now. Therefore, we usually choose independent storage machines in the market now, that is, economic (if you know it yourself) and practical. If you want to play large-scale games or software, it is recommended to buy a desktop. If it's just for ordinary office use at home, it's better for you to have a beautiful appearance at home, and the opportunity of integration is your better choice.
3. Heat dissipation:
Because the internal space of the all-in-one machine is small, the components are concentrated, and there is no big fan like the desktop, so the heat dissipation is not good. This is a common problem of all integrated machines. Although the technology has improved and the problem is not so serious now, there are still some heat dissipation problems, but desktop computers generally have no heat dissipation problems. If the desktop is really too hot, you can choose to change the fan or directly open the chassis for ventilation, and the all-in-one machine can only stare blindly.
4. Portable:
Because the all-in-one machine is relatively small, it is more convenient to carry. Although it is not as convenient as a notebook, it is relatively easy to take the all-in-one home from other places, and the desktop is particularly heavy to carry. Think about the way you walk on the road with the chassis in your left hand and the monitor in your right hand, and you will feel like you are on the battlefield.
5. Upgrade:
Because all the hardware of the all-in-one machine is put in a small casing, the requirements for hardware are very strict, which is similar to that of a notebook. The desktop does not have such a problem, and its spacious chassis can be described as a sea of rivers. Coupled with the maturity of the computer hardware market, the compatibility of computer hardware is stronger, so the desktop has an absolute advantage in upgrading.
6. Environmental protection:
All-in-one desktop is more energy-saving and environment-friendly, and its power consumption is only 1/3 of that of traditional split desktop (split desktop consumes only 1kWh for 2 hours, and all-in-one desktop consumes only 1kWh for 6 hours), resulting in less electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, the all-in-one machine is healthier and more environmentally friendly.
Summary: Desktop and all-in-one machine have their own advantages. Whether to buy a desktop or an all-in-one ultimately depends on your actual situation. Here are some suggestions. If the performance requirements are high and the computer does not need to be carried frequently, it is recommended to buy a desktop. If the performance requirements are not high, but also beautiful appearance and space saving, it is recommended to choose an all-in-one machine.
