Compulab Refreshes Airtop3 SFF Fanless IoT Edge Server Model with GeForce RTX 4060 dGPU Option

Compulab has updated its "ruggedised" Airtop3 compact form factor PC line with a new configuration that includes a pre-installed "Ada Lovelace" GeForce RTX 4060 8 GB discrete graphics card. Back in 2018, TechPowerUp's news section covered the Israeli firm's initiation of a crowdfunding campaign for their fanless Airtop2 Inferno Mini-PC. This second generation design launched with a desktop GeForce GTX 1080 "Pascal" card onboard. Compulab's current-gen SFF fanless IoT Edge server model was first revealed in 2019; debuting with passively cooled Intel Core i9-9900K (Coffee Lake Refresh) processors and Team Green's Quadro RTX 4000 (Turing) graphics cards. Going further back—to February 2018—the brand introduced its vanilla Airtop2 design .

The latest Airtop3 revision still utilizes an old LGA1151 socket platform; compatible with a small selection of Team Blue "Coffee Lake"—original and refreshed—CPUs. The best configuration can be equipped with a workstation grade Xeon E-2278GE processor. The cheapest option is outfitted with an entry level Celeron G4900T unit. As noted by VideoCardz, Compulab's starting price for an Airtop3 + GeForce RTX 4060 dGPU is $2780. A GPU-less setup costs $1790. Customers can pick between the GeForce RTX 4060 or an older "Ampere" RTX A2000 6 GB card. No matter the specification, CPU/APU and GPU aspects are passively cooled via sizeable copper plates.
