It consumes a bit more power in the process when under load, but both performance-per-watt and performance-per-dollar remain high.


When compared to the Trigkey S3, the Speed S offers 70 to 120 percent faster graphics performance and 50 to 60 percent faster multi-thread CPU performance.

The Trigkey Speed S is compelling on every front when compared to other mini PCs in the same price range. It doesn't offer some advanced features like Thunderbolt, Wi-Fi 6E, or 2.5 Gbit Ethernet, but many HTPC users are unlikely to mind when it comes to 1080p or 4K video streaming. For $400 USD, the Trigkey Speed S is ready-to-go and at half the price of many Intel NUCs equipped with similar RAM and storage configurations. Prices are now so low that they are beginning to squeeze out slower Atom or Celeron mini PCs. NUC alternatives have been steadily dropping in price without sacrificing performance by shipping with H-series CPUs.
