20 best monoblocks

More than half a million worth of Apple iMac Pro and buy it mainly for state enterprises, prestigious studios and companies. The screen resolution is 5120x2880 and to ensure a smooth video sequence, 2 video cards from AMD are provided, namely Vega 56 and a similar 64. There is no difference between them, and when buying a computer with Vega 56, you can try to reflash it to 64. It is noteworthy that in both cases an improved video memory type HBM2. The Xeon series processors act as a computing center, and the top-end Intel Xeon W line can have 8 cores, 16 threads and can be automatically overclocked to 4.2 GHz.

It is this line that is characterized as one of the most durable and a computer on such a system will please any creative specialist. In addition to this, DDR4 RAM with a frequency of 2666 MHz and a capacity of 8 to 64 GB and a 1 TB SSD are preinstalled.

A compact monoblock from an American manufacturer, the screen size of which is only 21.5 inches. Such dimensions fit perfectly into almost any workplace, whether it is a small corner of an ordinary clerk or a manager's desk that is not devoid of restrained severity.If we throw aside the small (but advantageous) dimensions, then we get a somewhat controversial spectacle in the form of design. Dell products cannot be called luxurious, and yet there are nice representatives in the lineup.

But in terms of filling and consistency of characteristics with the cost, the monoblock practically outperforms its competitors. In the "extreme" modification of the Dell Inspiron 22 3263, it runs on an Intel Core i3 processor and an AMD graphics card - Radeon R5 A335 with 2 GB of memory. In principle, such a pair is enough to solve any work issues, and even to use the monoblock as a gaming platform for age games, but nothing more. If the issue of design is secondary for you, feel free to purchase this model.

A product manufactured by a Chinese company that has gained popularity as an inexpensive monoblock for small and medium-sized offices. The pleasant-looking design and proprietary reliability are complemented by not the most top-end features, as a result of which the Asus Vivo AiO V221 ID was written off as a home gaming computer. The system based on Intel Pentium 4 has not the most outstanding volumes of built-in RAM and storage capacity. 4 GB of RAM and 2 GB of video memory from a discrete GeForce 920MX graphics card is enough to load many resource-intensive applications, but if the files used (or processed) are too large, then 500 GB on the HDD will obviously not be enough.

Alas, Asus Vivo AiO V221 ID does not give users variability in terms of the choice of "stuffing" - there is only one bundle, and therefore it will not work much with performance.But there is an advantage in terms of cost - it is one and fully meets the technical specifications.

A mid-range all-in-one built with Intel Core i-series functional processors capable of handling any office task. Thanks to its small dimensions, the HP Pavilion 24 All-in-One is able to fit into any environment, and the external simplicity of the case and the presence of strict (but light) features only emphasize its formality and clear corporate orientation. The model averaged in terms of modification is based on a dual-core Intel Core i3 6100U processor, whose frequency is 2.3 GHz. Externally, a decent amount of RAM, 8 GB, partly goes to the needs of the integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 video card, which, in general, does not affect performance when running standard office applications.

If the work involves running demanding programs, then it makes sense to take a closer look at a more “advanced” version of a monoblock with an Intel Core i5 6200U on board. This configuration has a discrete graphics card with 2 GB of memory and a 1000 GB drive. The HP Pavilion 24 All-in-One isn't just for the office, it can also be a solid entry-level gaming station.

So, 120 thousand rubles and a monoblock with a GTX 1050 on board. Partially saves the situation Intel Core i7-8700T (maximum modification) with 6 cores, 12 threads and an overclocking frequency of up to 4 GHz. What does it give? You can use it to create interactive maps, cartoons and rendering. But as for games, all online games on it will go to medium-high settings. Everything will depend on the video card. The size of the monoblock RAM varies depending on the selected modification, that is, 8 or 16 GB. It can be increased up to 32 GB on its own, but such a possibility is not provided from the factory.

According to reviews, unlike most competitors, this model does not have a 4K or 5K monitor, only Full HD resolution.

Inexpensive by the standards of gaming devices, a monoblock with a unique appearance, proprietary development of Lenovo. The screen is connected to the stand, which has a built-in keyboard and mouse plate. It has a small niche for a stylus pen so that you can interact with the screen. It's not exactly light, but the adjustable stand allows you to lower the screen to the point where the candy bar actually transforms into a tablet, making it the perfect work tool for graphics studios and designers.

Another highlight is the Yoga A940's sound system, which will amaze you in any mode with its user-facing Dolby Atmos® acoustics. Beneath the display itself is a second set of speakers designed to maximize volume even in drawing mode. Additionally, an improved artificial intelligence system is used to predict your needs.On guard against the intrusion of unwanted guests is a module with an additional infrared camera for easy login, you can unlock the device without entering a password. You can buy this device for an average of 145,000 rubles.

Microsoft took an unusual and strange approach with the release of Surface Studio 2. Of course, most of the money from the buyer will be asked for the appearance. There is nothing superfluous here - one continuous minimalism. The ultra-slim body rests on an adjustable bracket. The presence of a touch screen and an NVidia GTX 1060 graphics card, coupled with a 4-core Intel® Core™ i7-7820HQ processor, does not make the monoblock an ultimate gaming machine, but you can play modern online projects. You can download the mobile platform emulator and play the corresponding games.

All connection ports are located in the stand itself. The top version of the product with the GTX 1070 for 8 GB and 2 TB SSD drive costs 422 thousand rubles (480 thousand without a discount) and according to reviews it is delivered in single copies, which is why it is taken for offices and installation at the reception.

It is not strange, but this solution is most suitable for games. Among the possible processor options, the Intel Core i9-9900K will certainly be the most productive, and the Intel Core i5-8500, Intel Core and i5-9600 will be catching up. An even wider selection awaits you when reviewing video cards. The weakest here will be the AMD Radeon Pro 500, and the strongest AMD Radeon RX Vega 64.Such a configuration will be able to pull out any modern game in Full HD at maximum settings. The only thing that confuses is the extremely small amount of 500 GB SSD drive. For such money, it would be possible to deliver 1 TB.

According to reviews, the 5K screen looks great, but even Vega 64 will be hard to pull it, so we recommend taking Full HD. The diagonal of the monitor is 27 inches, and it is equally good for both home use and office use. By the way, there is no optical drive here, which means that programs need to be downloaded from the Internet or downloaded via a USB flash drive.

The retractable camcorder is not critical for gaming. Only if you don't stream games. The camera is built into the retractable element of the body and "leaves" if necessary. Having spent a lot of money on this and on a large monolithic stand, the manufacturer stinted on the technical stuffing. Here is a minimal computer for games in the truest sense. The processor with 4 cores is paired with the GTX 1050.

If you take it not for games, then this is almost an ideal candy bar for the home. It consumes a little due to weak components, it can easily decorate the interior of any modern house, and it takes up little space.The monoblock is characterized by a mixed disk subsystem, consisting of a 256 GB SSD and a 1 TB HDD.

Twenty-inch monoblock with Full HD touch screen resolution and good performance. Able to digest relatively heavy work programs and even some modern games. But not the best and not at the maximum graphics settings. In the maximum configuration, you can get an integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 graphics card, an Intel Core i5-7500T processor with a frequency of 2.7 GHz, 8 GB of DDR4 RAM and a terabyte of hard drive space. You can buy a model with an SSD drive and an HDD for storing files.

The screen, which is relatively small for a monoblock, is "aggravated" by thick frames on the sides. So the design, one might say, is not for everybody. Interestingly, the touch screen has a matte finish. Therefore, it will not glare in the sun, and the picture will be clearly visible even in very bright light. On the other hand, you will have to make a little more effort to manage. All the necessary modern and not very interfaces are available. Anything can be connected to a monoblock.

A well-deserved silver among touch monoblocks is taken by a model with a 23.8-inch display and a screen resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. In the maximum configuration, the model has excellent characteristics - the Intel Core i5-8259U processor is capable of delivering a frequency of up to 3.4 GHz. This is supported by 8 gigabytes of RAM - when upgrading, you can add it up to 16 GB.A discrete AMD Radeon 530 card with 2 gigabytes of video memory is responsible for the video.

It is convenient that you can buy a model with a matte screen coating - then even in bright sunlight, the image will not light up. Manufacturers claim that they have installed a very sensitive microphone in the monoblock, which will hear the owner even from the other side of the room. The kit also comes with a mouse and keyboard. They can be either wired or wireless. In the reviews, some buyers note that the monoblock works quite loudly - some even disassembled and additionally shock-absorbed the hard drive to reduce the noise level.

A relatively good monoblock running a brand new Intel Core i3-8100 with a frequency of 3.6 GHz and 8 gigabytes of DDR4 RAM. RAM can be expanded up to 32 GB - there would be additional dies. Out of the box, not only the classic Windows Professional 10 can be installed, but also Linux. The video card is built-in, Intel HD Graphics 630. There is a model for sale without touch input, so you need to check with the seller before buying, or better, check it yourself. The design pleases. The side frames of the IPS screen are thin and elegant. Due to this, with a diagonal of 21.5 inches, the monoblock does not seem large and bulky. Full HD resolution.

I am glad that the device is well suited for communication situations - the model has an excellent high-quality webcam and two directional microphones at once. It is very convenient that the monoblock is easy to disassemble, clean and improve - the device panel is removable and can be easily detached. You don't even need tools to get inside.At the same time, the case is quite reliable, it complies with the military standard MIL-STD 810G. The case has all modern interfaces, including USB Type-C. They are additionally protected by a lid so that they are not clogged with dust.

It is these associations that arise at the first acquaintance with this model. Inexpensive monoblock is represented by an extremely modest screen size of 15.6 inches, which makes it very similar to a tablet. In addition, there is no classic stand here and the usual arc plays its role. It does not stand out and resolution, 1366x768 pixels. The screen is touch-sensitive and therefore glossy, with a mediocre quality TN-matrix.

All the main ports are on the back and there are a lot of them. One only USB 3.0 4 pieces. If this arrangement does not suit the owner, 4 niches are hidden in the case for attaching Vesa mounts. Modest and other parameters. Intel Celeron N4000 with 2 cores and 4 threads runs by default with 4 GB of RAM, which can be upgraded up to 8 GB. As a drive, both HDD and SSD can be installed, which, however, do not please with their speed. The device is suitable for presentations and work with simple graphics.

Lenovo offers an unusual and relatively inexpensive solution. The stand is more like a copper tube of the cooling system, as it is made in the form of a gold-plated arc. The first part is fixed in the stand itself, and the second directly in the monitor.

Speaking about the technical stuffing, we note that here the emphasis is on energy efficiency. The Intel Core® i3-9100T is clocked at 3.1 GHz. The graphics core is built-in, its role is played by Intel UHD Graphics 630. The Windows 10 Home SL 64-bit operating system does not have the ability to change the language. The initial amount of RAM of 4 GB is barely enough to cover the needs of the system, but this deficiency can be eliminated by increasing it to 8 GB.

This monoblock is characterized by the largest screen diagonal of 34 inches and a curved display. Thanks to this form, no second monitor is needed, because everything will fit on one. We must pay tribute, the processor of this product is one of the best and it is an Intel Core i7-8700 with an integrated graphics core Intel HD / UHD Graphics 630. It cannot be said that this will be enough for comfortable work, probably for games you will need to buy an external video card, which very problematic.

Now for the other side of the coin. The case is completely plastic, although metal seemed more appropriate. Although 16 GB of RAM, they are here with one bar, although 2 bars of 8 GB each gave great performance. But, unlike most competitors' products, a 3-year warranty is given for a monoblock.

You don't even need to talk a lot about "apple" monoblocks. These are professional devices that are very expensive. But in the hands of a professional, they will more than work out the money invested, allowing you to create really great content. The IPS screen is 27 inches touchscreen and has a resolution of 5K (5120x2880). The display is incredibly crisp and colors are accurate. However, for such a price, nothing else is expected from a professional monoblock. Top of the line equipment means incredible performance. You can buy Apple monoblocks with 64 GB of RAM, an AMD Radeon Pro 580 graphics card with 8 GB of video memory and an Intel Core i7-7700K quad-core processor with a frequency of 4.2 GHz.

In general, this model is the best for the office of professional designers, creators of special effects and videos. Due to its amazing performance, excellent screen and "apple" durability, it can become the workhorse of any graphic content creator for a long time. In the reviews, buyers actively praise the model. But they also note a drawback - a “microscopic” SSD of 24 gigabytes. However, a high-quality and expensive HDD (by the way, up to 3 terabytes in size) in iMac works no worse than some solid-state drives, so this is not a hindrance.

Buyers in the reviews note an attractive design as the main advantage. There is nothing pretentious in it, on the contrary, the black color is diluted with a pleasant cream color. Of the video cards, 3 options are available, or rather 2:

• Intel HD Graphics 620 and its modification Intel UHD Graphics 620;
• NVIDIA GeForce 930MX.

Now let's talk about some technical nuances. For example, updating Microsoft Windows 10 takes a long time and is accompanied by lags and freezes. Video cards are not enough for games, and even working with 3D graphics causes him certain difficulties. We recommend using it as an online multimedia center. Many users are afraid of minced meat from pre-installed trash. A hard drive in the form of a 1 TB HDD does not look very good - the manufacturer puts a low-speed model and it is advisable to replace it with an SSD. Finally, the biggest problem is that maintenance can only be carried out at a service center, otherwise opening the unit yourself will void the warranty.

For almost 90,000 rubles, you can buy an almost perfect monoblock for most buyers. Frankly speaking, the case is not made at the highest level and seems cheap for its price. But this minor drawback is covered by the following pluses. This is a compact monoblock with a matte screen and Full HD resolution.The viewing angles turned out to be excellent, the refresh rate is more than decent, it heats up weakly on heavy programs. All thanks to the Intel Core i5-8500, Intel Core i7-8700 and its overclocked version of the Intel Core i7-8700K. From the factory, a modification with 8 GB is available to you, which is not enough and 16 GB. And the best thing is that the integrated Intel HD / UHD 630 graphics can be supplemented with a compact GTX 1050, which is now the minimum pass to the world of games, even simple ones.

Of the additional disadvantages, there is a weak fastening of the retractable camera, an overestimated gamma, the lack of “depth” of the picture, and a very mediocre factory keyboard and mouse.

A model whose performance is very dependent on the configuration. The screen diagonal is 23.8 inches. The resolution of the Full HD IPS screen at this display size allows you to see a clear and bright picture without graininess. To use a monoblock at home as a media station, an assembly with 8 GB of RAM and an Intel Core i5-7500T processor is enough. Although if you have money, you can find a model with 16 gigabytes of RAM and an Intel Core i7 processor. For modern games, the “average” model is hardly suitable - there is only a built-in Intel HD Graphics 630 on board. But on sale you can also find quite a good bundle with NVIDIA GeForce 930MX. Naturally, the price will increase with each improvement.

This inexpensive device is quite enough for the house to watch a movie with the whole family or play some not too demanding game. In general, in the reviews, users praise the candy bar - for its configuration it is quite powerful, and the build quality makes you respect the manufacturer.Of the shortcomings that buyers noted - the device heats up quickly and starts to make noise. But it comes with a mouse and keyboard.

A model capable of digesting even not too demanding modern games in the maximum configuration. The screen is not the largest - 23 inches exactly. But the resolution is Full HD, due to which the picture is very clear. Colors are transmitted very accurately due to the IPS-matrix and high-quality display. The coating is matte, so there will be no glare when working during the day or next to a light source. It is very comfortable. The stand has several types of height and tilt adjustment. Therefore, the screen can be adjusted as it is convenient for you. And you can get inside the case without tools - you don’t have to disassemble the candy bar to clean it from dust or add RAM.

A common and productive package "to the maximum" includes an Intel Core i7-7700T processor at 2.9 GHz and an NVIDIA GeForce 940MX video card. It all works with support for 8 GB of RAM, but if you have dice, you can expand it up to 32 GB. Optionally, you can install an SSD to speed up the system even more. In the reviews, users like the performance of the model and the speed of its work.
