Compact workstation ready for virtualization

The Partaker B18 barebone mini PC ships with an Intel Core i9-10980HK processor, 32GB of DDR4 memory and a 1TB Nvme drive. It targets developers, lab engineers and power users who need eight cores and sixteen threads in a 134 x 144 x 64mm chassis that supports Proxmox, VMware ESXi and Kodi out of the box. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed, with Ubuntu Linux also validated.

Sustained load on the 45W TDP chip

The 45W processor runs at a 2.40GHz base frequency and can reach 5.30GHz for burst work, while the smart silent fan manages thermals during long compile jobs or container workloads. Dual-channel DDR4-2933 memory keeps bandwidth stable, and the two Intel I219-V plus Realtek 8111 LAN ports maintain steady throughput for network-attached storage or cluster traffic. The 100W 20V 5A power adapter feeds the system without throttling under continuous multi-threaded demand.

Upgrade path from dual-core or quad-core NUCs

Builders moving from older two-core or four-core mini PCs gain eight cores, sixteen threads and 16MB cache in the same footprint, plus a second M.2 slot and a 2.5-inch SATA bay for storage expansion. The jump is worth it when workloads need simultaneous virtual machines, 4K@60Hz dual-display output via DP 1.2 and HDMI 2.0, or hardware virtualization extensions for nested hypervisors. Buyers who need more than 64GB RAM, discrete graphics or 10GbE networking should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 45 W Core i9-10980HK get under sustained load with the smart silent fan?

The 45 W TDP and smart silent fan keep noise low during typical workloads; sustained all-core turbo will raise temperatures but the cooler is designed for the rated power envelope.

Which display cables and peripherals must I supply to use the DP 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 ports at 4K 60 Hz?

You need a DisplayPort 1.2 cable and an HDMI 2.0 cable for dual 4K 60 Hz output, plus your own keyboard, mouse and monitor.

Can the Intel I219-V and Realtek RTL8111 LAN ports team with older 1 Gb switches for failover?

Both ports are 1 Gb Ethernet; they will negotiate with older 1 Gb switches and can be configured for failover or load balancing in the OS.
