The Acer Revo Box AI follows a Mini-ITX form factor, keeping its dimensions compact at 131 mm × 131 mm with a height of just 43 mm and a total volume of roughly 737.9 cm³. Despite its small footprint, it houses a 1TB NVMe SSD, offering fast flash-based storage in a unit that weighs only 700 grams, making it straightforward to mount or reposition as needed.
The processor operates across 20 threads with a base configuration of 8 cores running at 2.6 GHz and 12 cores at 2.3 GHz, reaching a turbo clock speed of 5.3 GHz via Turbo Boost version 2. It carries a 55W TDP and is rated to a maximum operating temperature of 105 °C, with a clock multiplier of 26 that is left unlocked for added flexibility. The CPU includes 36 MB of L2 cache, supports 64-bit processing, and comes with integrated graphics built in.
The integrated graphics solution runs at a base clock of 300 MHz, boosting up to 1900 MHz in turbo mode, and is built on a 3 nm semiconductor process. It connects via PCIe 5 and supports up to four displays simultaneously, covering a broad range of multi-monitor setups. On the software side, it is compatible with DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.5, and OpenCL 3, providing solid API coverage for both general compute and graphics workloads.
The Acer Revo Box AI is equipped with 32GB of DDR5 RAM, placing it firmly in the higher end of typical mini PC memory configurations. DDR5 brings improved bandwidth and efficiency over its predecessor, making this memory setup well-suited for handling demanding multitasking workloads within the machine's compact form factor.
The Acer Revo Box AI does not include Wi-Fi support, but it does offer wired networking through two RJ45 Ethernet ports alongside Bluetooth 5.3 for wireless peripherals. Its USB layout consists of four USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and one USB 4 40Gbps port, while a Thunderbolt 4 port adds high-speed data transfer and display output capability; there are no USB 2.0, Gen 1, or Type-C Gen 2 ports present. Display connectivity is covered by one HDMI 2.1 output and one DisplayPort 2.0 output, with no VGA connector included. Audio options include both a 3.5 mm headset jack and an AUX input, though there is no S/PDIF output.
In PassMark testing, the Acer Revo Box AI achieves a multi-threaded score of 49,826, reflecting the cumulative processing capacity across all its cores and threads. Its single-threaded PassMark result of 4,531 gives an indication of per-core performance, which is relevant for tasks that rely heavily on single-thread execution speed.
The CPU uses a BGA 2049 socket and employs big.LITTLE technology to distribute workloads across its core types, and it supports a broad set of instruction sets including MMX, F16C, FMA3, AES, AVX, AVX2, SSE 4.1, and SSE 4.2, along with NX bit for hardware-level execution protection. Memory can be configured across two channels at speeds of up to 6400 MHz, with a maximum supported capacity of 192GB; the platform also supports ECC memory, which is notable for a machine of this form factor. There is no external memory slot available, but the unit does use flash storage for its internal drive. The product ships with a one-year warranty.
