Benchmarks: System and Gaming

PCMark backs up our results thus far by confirming that the Core i5-5200U enables the Brix S to deliver an extra dose of performance compared to equivalent last-gen mini PCs.

In the graphics department, however, the gains are less relevant. The HD 5500 IGP is technically an upgrade, but it's still suited to the same usage scenarios: there's plenty of power for 4K video playback and general multimedia, but full-HD gaming is a no-go.
