Hello, hello everyone! I am Mr. Shen! Not long ago, I talked with my friends about the difference between business books and ordinary laptops and . So, some friends need to recommend reliable and worry-free office desktops. After comparison, I finally chose the Asus Dawn X 9L small case version. After using it, I feel that this configuration and corresponding services are very representative. I would just give you a case reference for office desktop computers. Let's talk about it while watching.
First, in terms of business-oriented desktops, they often adopt this simple and steady style. In addition, there is no need for a separate display, so a smaller case can be used, and the overall 9L shape gives people a very capable feeling.
At the same time, the configuration of this computer is not weak. The core Intel 12th generation Core CPU, the specific model is i5-12400, and it integrates core graphics. The memory capacity is 16GB and the storage space of SSD is 512GB, which are both relatively reasonable choices in office scenarios. The Windows 11 operating system is also preinstalled from the factory, which is at the right level.
Right, I also get a keyboard and mouse when buying a computer, which is really worry-free.
computer comes with good wireless connectivity capabilities, including Wi-Fi 6 high-speed wireless network and Bluetooth 5.2 all support. It is very convenient whether it is connecting to the Internet in a Wi-Fi environment, or passing data with data servers in the intranet, or connecting to related peripherals through Bluetooth.
combined with an external magnetic Wi-Fi antenna, the signal is very stable. This also saves the trouble of installing the corresponding wireless module in the later stage, and avoids the potential risk of incompatibility of assembly accessories.
In addition, the computer comes with a rich IO interface. Let’s first look at the front button interface, which includes power switch (it will light up after turning on) and HDD indicator light.
also has headphone interface, microphone interface, 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A interfaces, and 2 USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A interfaces.
This not only allows you to intuitively understand whether the computer is turned on, but also can easily connect to keyboard and mouse, USB drive, mobile hard disk and other high-speed peripherals.
Let’s take a look at the IO on the back. First of all, in terms of keyboard and mouse, the classic PS/2 interface is retained, which is also considered that some old devices in the units have not been upgraded to USB interfaces to ensure compatibility.
display interface , including the current mainstream HDMI and relatively classic VGA, it is also very compatible and can be adapted to some relatively old projectors and monitors. In addition, there are 4 USB 2.0 interfaces and a gigabit network cable interface. As well as 3 standard audio interfaces, the scalability is also very good.
Ultra-small power module has also been installed in place. Connect the included power cord and you can turn on the computer.
Then let’s briefly talk about performance. First of all, the core of the whole machine: CPU. This model uses i5-12400, which is the performance of Intel's 12th-generation Core CPU. It's very reasonable for an office computer.
Through the CPU-Z running score, you can see that the single-core running score has exceeded the 700-point mark, and the multi-core running score has also achieved good results of nearly 5,000 points. Daily office is indeed enough. Another core accessory closely related to the computer running speed is SSD. This Asus Dawn X uses a 512GB Intel SSD. The measured continuous reading speed reaches 3071 MB/s, and the continuous writing speed is 1657 MB/s.
It is very fast to run large office software on a daily basis or load complex Excel forms.
is also because the SSD itself is fast enough, so when externally connecting to a high-speed USB drive, it can easily achieve a good record of 1000 MB/s reading and writing level. In this way, we need to copy the file quickly, and we don’t need to wait for a long time when importing and exporting to another device.
It is worth mentioning that the core display performance of this machine is also good. With an HDMI interface, you can connect an external 4K monitor to obtain a higher definition display if needed.
Of course, choosing a brand machine is not only to buy the equipment itself, but more importantly, buying the service behind it. Taking this Asus Dawn X as an example, Asus provides a 3-year main component warranty + home-to-door service covering the whole country + 2-hour fast response after-sales system, which highlights a worry-free and worry-free.
At the same time, more than 1,100 service points across the country can also ensure that professional engineers can come to make judgments as soon as possible in emergencies. Not a big problem can basically be fixed on the spot. Asus also provides direct repair services, which are something that cannot be enjoyed by DIY computers.
Overall, Asus Dawn X represents a typical case of desktop purchase in office scenarios. The appearance design of the whole machine is simple, stable and low-key, with reasonable internal configuration, and good control of size and weight. It comes with its own Windows 11 system, and the performance of office-oriented performance is also very sufficient. Coupled with the very comprehensive after-sales service system , it is still worth the money for business users who have this demand. After all, when technical support is really needed, time and efficiency are of immeasurable value. No wonder friends who have this need are not very interested in considering their own DIY assembly machine.
Finally, Asus also provides a lot of choices in the purchase of specific models. For example, the 12th-generation i5-12400 CPU + 16G memory + 512G SSD model I reviewed this time is a very good configuration in the office computer.
If the demand is not high, you will just go online to process documents, or do some online customer service and email sending and receiving work. The cost-effectiveness of the entry-level model is also good, so everyone can choose as needed.
