Partaker A8 17" IP65 i5-8265U 16GB DDR4 512GB all-in-one PC

Industrial panel PC with IP65 front

The Partaker A8 is a 17-inch all-in-one computer built around an Intel Core i5-8265U processor with 16GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB SSD. Its front panel carries an IP65 rating for dust and water protection, making it suited for factory floors, kiosks or outdoor cabinets where a standard office PC would not survive. The unit ships with Windows 11 Pro pre-installed and uses a fanless aluminium chassis for silent operation.

Sustained load on fanless aluminium

Passive cooling relies on the entire aluminium alloy case to dissipate heat, so the system runs without moving parts and maintains 24/7 stability in ambient temperatures up to 50°C when an SSD is fitted. Under continuous workloads the i5-8265U will throttle to stay within its thermal envelope, which is the expected behaviour for a sealed industrial design rather than a shortcoming. The 10-point projected capacitive touchscreen remains responsive at 250 cd/m² brightness across the specified operating range.

Check power, mounting and expansion needs

The PC requires a 12V DC supply from the included 100-240V AC adapter, so verify that your cabinet or wall location can accommodate the brick and cable routing. Mounting uses the supplied buckle kits with a 380 x 315mm cut-out; confirm the opening matches your enclosure before ordering. Expansion is limited to one mini-PCIe slot with a SIM socket for wireless modules and the internal mSATA, M.2 2280 and 2.5-inch SATA bays for additional storage.
