[Success] Lenovo M93p, M73p "Tiny" mini PC i5 4570t, i7 4765t Yosemite-Catalina

Looks like it's small enough you could throw it in a backpack when you travel and then connect it to any TV set for an instant hackintosh desktop wherever you go. I've used DP to HDMI cables on the Dells and HPs I've owned, they work great, even for audio.

Paired with my trusty Logitech K400, it's a compact low energy setup. The CPU is only 35 watts yet it puts out graphics at the same level as a Desktop.

Those are great for HTPC use. I've got an older version.

I like this form factor PC, and it can use my old DDR3 SODIMM

the idle power consumption for dual core PC like this, I think it is around ~20W, using IGPU for hardware decoding H.264 video may increase the power consumption to 25W.

my hack | Macmini6,2 | H77N-WIFI | Quad Core E3-1225V2 | P4000 IGPU | 120GB SSD x1 | 400W 80+ PSU
in idle ~ 26W
playback high-bit rate H.264 video ~ 31W

another hack | Macmini13,2 | Z77N-WIFI | Quad Core E3-1225V2 | GT 640 + P4000 IGPU | 120GB SSD x1 | 550W 80+ Gold PSU
in idle ~ 40W
playback high-bit rate H.264 video ~ 50W

my real Macmini6,2
in idle ~ 12W
with activity - jump > 20W

OK you need to stop this lol I can see me having to carve out some time from my busy schedule to pick one of these up.

Are all yours the i5 variant? I believe they are dual core but 4 threads which I assume would be similar to my Dell Latitude 6430U Hackintosh which has a i5-3427U processor.

The 4570T is one of the few Haswell i5s that were dual core. The 4670T for example is 4C/4 threads. It's kind of strange seeing that the i5-4570 has 4 cores and 4 threads. Intel must have disabled two cores. What they did to the 4670T is reduce the clock speeds to make it have a lower TDP than the 4670. Still comes in at 45W.

U - series CPU, means Ultra Low Power, Mobile CPU
T - series CPU, means Power-optimized lifestyle, Desktop CPU
