Impressive performance
The overall system performance of the Mini IT13 is impressive. It surpasses its rivals equipped with Intel's 12th Gen CPUs and those with lower-tier Raptor Lake processors. Moreover, it competes admirably with the Ryzen 9 7940HS in almost all areas, except in graphically intensive tasks like digital content creation, which is understandable given the latter's superior integrated GPU. In everyday usage, the Mini IT13 performs flawlessly, with one minor exception: applications tend to take a few seconds to open on their first launch, but they start almost instantly thereafter.
For those inclined to compare test results, GEEKOM’s website shows the multi-core Cinebench R23 score as 19.318, while on the internet a median score that was found is closer to 17.856.5, which might be more in line with real-world usage.
