An AIO PC (all-in-one PC, or AIO computer) puts the screen, computer, speakers and usually a webcam into one slim unit. Instead of a tower under the desk, a separate monitor and a tangle of cables, you have one device with one power lead. For offices, reception desks, classrooms and counters, that simplicity is the big attraction.
How an AIO computer works
Inside an all-in-one there is a compact motherboard – often a Thin Mini-ITX board – mounted behind the display. Business-grade AIOs like the Hibertek range use the same Intel Core (and on some models AMD) processors, SO-DIMM memory and M.2 SSDs you would find in a desktop, so performance is comparable. Read more in our Thin Mini-ITX all-in-one guide.
AIO PC benefits
- Space saving – frees up desk and floor space.
- Fewer cables – one power lead and network cable; Wi-Fi options remove even that.
- Faster deployment – unbox, plug in, done. Ideal for large rollouts.
- Tidy, professional look – especially at reception desks and customer-facing counters.
- Built-in webcam, mics and speakers – ready for Teams and Zoom.
- Touch screen options – for self-service, kiosks and shared workstations.
AIO PC drawbacks (and how business models solve them)
Consumer all-in-ones can be hard to upgrade. Business AIOs like the Hibertek GI24, U24 and BG24 take desktop CPUs up to 65W, up to 64GB of SO-DIMM memory, an M.2 slot and a 2.5″ bay, so they can be upgraded and repaired. See upgradeable all-in-one PCs.
Touch or non-touch AIO?
Touch suits shared, public or kiosk use; non-touch suits everyday office work. Our touch vs non-touch guide explains the trade-offs.

FAQs
Is an AIO PC good for business?
Yes – business AIOs are built for long duty cycles, offer security options such as smart card readers and chassis intrusion sensors, and are easier to deploy than towers.
Can you add a second monitor to an AIO PC?
Many can. GI24, GI27, U24 and BG24 models have DisplayPort and HDMI outputs on the rear.
Can an all-in-one PC be wall mounted?
Models with VESA support, such as the U24 (VESA 100) and the BF24, T22 and T20, can be fixed to walls or arms. See VESA mount all-in-one PCs.
