-I got this just to run my media server since the raspberry pi wasnt cutting it for video encoding, I was assuming Id just run a headless gentoo installation and keep things minimal. The CPU is a beast! I got the most bloated arch hyprland setup (Ml4w) and it runs beautifully with a containerized media server (Jellyfin, Prowlarr, Jackett, multiple Usenets and NZB indexers + tailscale webapp hosting so my family can add stuff remotely) and it honestly has plenty of room to spare! I only put 16 GB of DDR5 ram in it as well. -The build quality is astoundingly good, I literally found this machine by searching for cheapest Chinesium barebones pc made of bamboo. But the thing is metal, feels s o l i d, has good airflow, and the internals are well seated. -Very good engineering/design, the 1st ssd slot is slightly raised as to not touch the control module battery. That sounds small but its a chefs kiss when so many builds have irreconcilable placement issues

Windows 11 Pro preinstalled. No bloatware; just a nice clean Windows install. Everything is as described. 2 USB4 ports, one in front, one in back. 1 HDMI. 1 DisplayPort. 4K @ 60 Hz monitors attached and working well. This PC is more quiet than my laptop. You almost can't hear it. I was planning to change power settings in the BIOS to run in Quiet mode, but it is so quiet, I don't think I will do that. I love how small this computer is. I plan to add a 3rd monitor using a USB4 C to DisplayPort cable.


- Runs games and other CPU intensive programs really well - Fits 2x NVME M.2 drives even with - With the right case it fits a full size GPU (RTX 3090 Ti pictured) - Sips power due to being a mobile CPU especially at idle - Compact complete package without any CPU setup needed

Very fast and quiet, easy to setup. Plugged in all peripherals everything works.





This mini PC was everything it was advertised to be; it came fully functional with Windows 11 Pro pre-installed. All the ports are as expected; the overall performance is fully adequate for the average home PC user, providing a very acceptable environment for Web browsing, eMailing and Office applications.



Small. Zippy i7-1260p. Thunderbolt 4 x 2. 2.5" drive bay. Great for retro games emulation.



Working as advertised

No bloat, No Spyware, Quiet, stays cool, Windows 11 installed

Small size. Good specs. Good performance. Did not have to use MS Account. Lots of connectors.
