Help Finding MiniPC (feddit.ch)

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a mini PC with specific features.

I want a small case/computer that can:

VESA mount to the back of a monitor
Has a Kensington lock
Can be powered via USB-C. (~ <65W from monitor)

I have found the System76 Meerkat which has all those features except for USB-C power. I can't find a model from MinisForum with a VESA mount but maybe I just missed it. I'd appreciate the help!

EDIT: I found a company called Geekom which has everything I'm looking for. Thanks for the help

The Minisform EM680 should meet all your listed requirements.

Also, in the future (or for other models), you can always use a USB-C to Barrel Jack adapter - assuming of course, your USB-C supply meets the PC's wattage requirements.

BTW, there's a dedicated community for Mini PCs where you can post your future queries at: [email protected]

Where do you see that it has a VESA mount? I can't find any reference to one or see any obvious holes on the bottom.

I had no idea about the barrel jack to USB-C adapter, thanks!

I saw that community but it looks pretty barren. I figure I'd get more help here

Apologies, I saw one of the reviews mention VESA, but looks like it was for a different model (I hate that Amazon bundles together reviews of different models on the same page...).

Anyways, you could always get something like a generic VESA mounting kit.

There's also double sticky tape..

No worries. That gets me sometimes too. Thanks anyways
