Small Frame, Big Ambition: ASUS ExpertCenter P500 SFF Powers the Future of Business

By DaMarko Webster

In a market where power, precision, and space-saving design increasingly define business needs, ASUS has unveiled the ExpertCenter P500 SFF (P500SV), a compact desktop PC engineered to do more in less space. At just 8.6 liters, the P500 SFF is tailored for small businesses that want top-tier performance without compromising on noise, efficiency, or security. But don’t let the size fool you—this machine is loaded with innovation that redefines what a professional desktop can do. Powered by up to an Intel® Core™ i7 processor and featuring an optional NVIDIA® RTX™ A400 graphics card, the P500 SFF is capable of pushing up to 45W TDP—delivering a performance boost of up to 28% over similarly priced competitors. Whether you’re tackling complex spreadsheets, media-heavy design projects, or real-time rendering, this desktop handles the workload with ease and poise.

What sets the P500 SFF apart is its whisper-quiet engineering. ASUS’s new thermal design incorporates a high-efficiency rear fan and copper heat pipe that work in unison to direct airflow efficiently and reduce noise. Even in Performance mode, the system operates at just 30.8 dB—quieter than a typical library. In configurations with an Intel Core i3 chip, that drops below 22 dB. Combined with an energy-efficient architecture that slashes power consumption by up to 37%, this desktop is a quiet giant that lets teams focus without distraction.

ASUS hasn’t just designed this system to perform—it’s built to protect. With ASUS ExpertGuardian, the P500 SFF delivers a comprehensive suite of enterprise-grade security features, including a NIST SP 800-155-compliant BIOS, TPM 2.0 encryption, secure backup options, and at least five years of guaranteed BIOS and driver updates. These protections are enhanced with physical security features like a Kensington lock slot, plus a one-year McAfee+ Premium membership to help guard against online threats. Built to military-grade durability standards and backed by ASUS Business Support, it’s a system designed for long-term peace of mind.

Even virtual meetings get a boost with the inclusion of ASUS AI ExpertMeet, a smart collaboration platform that uses AI to simplify video calls. Features like AI Meeting Minutes automatically generate concise summaries of key points, while AI Translated Subtitles break down language barriers in real time—making cross-functional and cross-border collaboration more seamless than ever. For small businesses and teams looking to elevate their virtual presence, ExpertMeet transforms meetings from mundane to meaningful.

Ultimately, the ASUS ExpertCenter P500 SFF is more than just a compact desktop—it’s a forward-thinking business solution that balances power with precision, performance with peace and quiet, and productivity with protection. Whether you’re leading a creative agency, running a startup, or managing remote teams, this machine is built to help you work smarter, safer, and more efficiently—every single day.
