Maximum performance. Minimalist design – All-in-one PCs.

All-in-ones are great for both personal and professional use with their range of features supporting enhanced efficiency. Depending on the model, they have varying levels of RAM and processor power. Entry-level models with 8 GB RAM and a five-core CPU are ideal for research, organisation and text-based work, but there are also far more powerful devices designed to handle complex projects. In this case, look for models with at least 32 GB RAM and an Intel Core i7 processor (or Apple M1 chip) to quickly load and edit files. And should you run out of space, you can easily add more with an external hard drive or cloud connection. AiO systems are available in various sizes and we at Bechtle carry everything from compact 17.8 cm (7") models to large-screen 86.4 cm (34") devices as well as those running Windows and macOS.

 

Purchasing an AiO from Bechtle.

Before investing in an all-in-one PC, there are several factors to consider. Alongside the display size, performance is critical and business all-in-ones need to perform at a much higher level than those designed for personal use. Devices used in industrial settings should be robust and preferably knock and water-resistant. If you use complex software that requires significant computing power such as those used by architects, you should choose a device with higher gigabytes of RAM and there are several manufacturers offering models with 64 GB. You should also think about the size of the SSD. As a rule, the the bigger the capacity, the more fluid the workflows and the more efficiently you can work. Having said that, it’s good to know AiOs are a breeze to expand with peripherals such as mice, keyboards, other monitors and external hard drives plugging in directly to the screen housing.

 

Realise your vision with effective processors.

Responsible for processing your input, processors (or CPUS) are a key component of AiOs and are made up of cores. The more cores, the better the functionality. The exact processor you need depends on the work you are going to be doing on your AiO. If you’re going to be running more than just standard applications, you’ll need something more powerful and the most popular manufacturers, AMD and Intel, offer all performance classes. If you and your team are graphic designers or animators, you should make sure to choose a device with at least an Intel i7 or AMD Ryzen 7 processor built in. Another aspect to consider is the clock rate, which is measured in gigahertz (GHz) and indicates the speed at which the CPU performs calculations and executes commands. The higher the number, the faster the speed and devices such as the Microsoft Surface Studio perfectly blend a powerful processor with a high clock rate.

Vivid colours and deep blacks no matter the screen size.

With all-in-one systems for a whole host of requirements, they are available with a multitude of screen sizes. Anyone looking for a system to provide a clear overview of content, a small screen measuring between 15.6 inches (approx. 40 cm) and 21.5 inches (approx. 55 cm) will normally suffice. If, however, you work with various programs at the same time and don’t want to have to keep switching between them, it’s worth looking into devices with displays measuring 27 inches (approx. 69 cm) or even 34 inches (approx. 86 cm). Choose whichever size suits you and where you work and don’t forget to think about resolution as this can differ across devices even when the screen size is the same. Designers and architects will benefit most from 4K (at least 3,840 x 2,160 pixels). With such a huge number of options, you’ll find all-in-one PCs to suit any budget in our online shop. No matter the screen size you choose, you’ll enjoy outstanding picture quality, vivid colours and sharp contrasts that are easy on the eyes even during long working days. To ensure even greater comfort, take a look at our range of models with  integrated blue light filters from manufacturers including Lenovo and HP.

 

Intuitive all-in-one touch PCs.

Some all-in-one PCs come with a touchscreen allowing users to control their devices using a mouse, keyboard and even the touch of a finger. This makes them a popular alternative to standard desktops found frequently in educational institutions and the hospitality sector. Touchscreens are either resistive or capacitive. A resistive screen responds to pressure while a capacitive display uses electrical charges to detect movement. Choosing an AiO touch PC is a choice for intuitive use and enhanced productivity.

 

The perfect AiO accessories.

While AiOs come with the most important components bundled together, they are easy to expand thanks to their extensive connectivity options. Pair classic peripherals such as keyboards, mice and speakers via USB or Bluetooth and leverage the HDMI interface to link up an extra monitor. It’s also child’s play to connect external storage media so you can quickly transform your AiO into a premium workstation.

 

Choosing the best AiO.

There are various AiOs on the market optimised for a host of applications and working styles. Ask yourself the following questions to identify which is the right product for you:

• Power: What are you going to be using your all-in-one system for? Standard Office programs don’t require as much RAM or as powerful CPUs as more complex applications.
• Display: Are multiple programs used at the same time? Is colour accuracy essential? If the answer is yes to both, look into models with larger displays.
• Touchscreen: Will you be using the device for meetings and will at least two people need to collaborate on it at a time? In this case, touchscreens allow intuitive and fast working.
• Connections: Will you be connecting other peripherals than keyboards and mice? If so, ensure you check the connectivity options. 
• Ergonomics: How big is the workstation where the AiO will be used? The answer to this will be important when it comes to deciding which model offers the best possible ergonomics.

 

The best all-in-one PCs for:

• Healthcare: For the healthcare industry, an all-in-one system needs to be robust, fulfil all statutory security standards and allow special peripherals such as readers to be connected.
• Hospitality: A rugged design alongside dirt and water resistance are important, as are devices with touchscreens to allow seamless and intuitive customer interaction.
• Designers: When it comes to picture and video editing, you need to make sure the device you choose has a high-res screen and displays precise colours. You should also consider the graphics cards, a powerful SSD and plenty of RAM to facilitate efficient workflows. 
• Architects: Powerful processors and graphics cards as well as high-resolution displays are essential in this sector. You should also ensure that the device you choose offers plenty of space to save CAD files. 
• Office-based work. On top of basic features such as reliable performance and sufficient storage space, individual preferences play the biggest role, but make sure the devices have enough connections and security features.
