Despite its compact size, Khadas Mind is designed with advanced components that ensure a powerful and lag-free experience whilst multitasking or handling compute-intensive office tasks. Featuring a high-performance 13th Generation Intel Core i7-1360P processor, Khadas Mind delivers exceptional processing power for demanding applications. The processor is designed with the Intel 7 process, and has 12 cores and 16 threads, reaching a peak frequency of 5.00 GHz. The integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics achieves a dynamic frequency of up to 1.5 GHz, whilst maintaining excellent power efficiency due to its low-power architecture. Mind supports up to 32 GB of dual-channel memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, ensuring remarkable multitasking performance; users can seamlessly switch between various tasks without experiencing any lag. In addition, Khadas Mind includes an internal M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 2230 SSD (512 GB/1 TB), with an additional PCIe 3.0 M.2 2230 SSD slot for storage expansion and lightning-fast access speeds.To ensure optimal performance from all these components, the Khadas Mind employs a remarkably effective heat dissipation system featuring VC liquid cooling, pure copper cooling fins, and a cooling fan based on magnetic levitation. Even when under 100% load, the CPU temperature maintains itself below 80°C, whilst the area around the exhaust vent on the casing remains at a cool 40°C. With all these advanced components packed into its compact form, Khadas Mind is an ideal choice for professionals and gamers seeking powerful computing capabilities in a portable form factor.

Extensive Versatility
Khadas Mind goes beyond being a standalone device limited to specific computing tasks. It is a versatile device with a modular design that can adapt to your diverse needs, thanks to its unique capability of docking with various external peripherals through its high-speed, high-bandwidth Mind Link interface. The Mind Link interface is a 122-pin multi-purpose socket connector that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2, HDMI 2.1, PCIe 5.0, and provides a reliable 10 A power supply with up to 10,000 re-plug cycles. This enables Khadas Mind to seamlessly integrate with other devices within the Khadas Mind ecosystem, including but not limited to the Mind Dock, Mind Graphics, Mind xPlay, and more. The Mind Dock is a powerful docking station designed to expand the I/O capabilities of Khadas Mind. It provides 8 additional I/O ports, power supply, and AAC speakers for high-quality audio output.

With all these features, the Mind Dock empowers professionals to enhance their workflow and achieve exceptional results.When users require additional GPU power, they can effortlessly insert their Khadas Mind into the Mind Graphics module. Equipped with a built-in NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060Ti desktop graphics card, this module enables smooth handling of complex design drafts in 3D/CAD software and delivers an immersive gaming experience. Utilizing an electronic switch, Mind Graphics effectively prevents unintended disconnections of the graphics card whilst it is in use. With a powerful GPU and high-speed, high-bandwidth Mind Link interface, Mind Graphics allows you to seamlessly add an external GPU to Khadas Mind, resulting in a significant performance boost within a matter of seconds. In the future, the Khadas Mind ecosystem will expand to include additional modules that cater to the evolving needs of global consumers. One such module is the Mind xPlay, a portable display with a built-in battery designed for on-the-go work. With xPlay, you can conveniently use Khadas Mind in cafes and restaurants when meeting with clients or friends.
