ASUS PN50 Mini PC Review

Let’s get into some tests, shall we? We put our R7-4700U to the test first with Cinebench R15 and R20. James reviewed the ASUS PB60 in June of last year and taking a look at Cinebench R15 I’ve included his test results, along with some other similar systems. You can see here that the ASUS PN50 actually performs excellently, taking second place with a multi-core score of 1,112!

I didn’t have any comparable systems for Cinebench R20 other than the Razer Blade Stealth 13 that I reviewed earlier this year, even here the ASUS PN50 wipes the floor with the Razer notebook. This is due to the R7-4700U having twice the number of cores.

Running PCMark 10 Express also gave us good scores all round, showing it’s capable of doing different tasks to a good level.

Putting our WD Blue SN550 through its paces with Crystal Disk Mark showed excellent read and write speeds, which is what we’d expect to see since it’s an NVMe drive. Your mileage may vary depending on the drive you choose to install.

Testing G-Skill’s Ripjaws 16GB RAM also gave us great results through AIDA64’s benchmarking tool. Once again, your results may differ depending on the speed and capacity of the RAM you choose to install into your own ASUS PN50.
