This PC is faster than the Mac mini M4 Pro and it’s $480 for Black Friday

I’ve spotted an incredible deal on a tower desktop that’s more powerful than Apple’s most powerful mini PC for even less money this Black Friday.

The Abytespark Business Desktop is now $480 on Amazon (was $600), making it my top pick desktop PC in the Black Friday sales.

Powered by Intel’s Core i7-14650HX CPU, this Windows tower is far faster than the $1399 Mac Mini M4 Pro in multi-core workloads, giving you workstation-level performance at a fraction of the cost.

I’ve been scouting for the best Black Friday mini PC deals around, but if you want a full desktop experience, this is the deal I recommend. The Core i7-14650HX is a proper mobile workstation chip, with 16 cores, 24 threads and boost speeds well above everyday CPUs. It handles heavy multitasking, large documents, virtual meetings and creative workloads without breaking a sweat.
