I purchased this MiniPC to act as an 'always-on' machine to manage my 2 NAS boxes, and have to say that I have been very impressed with it so far.Physically, it is tiny - same length / width as a CD and only a couple of inches tall. Performance-wise, setup was a doddle and despite the relatively low spec, it boots up pretty fast and didn't come with much in the way of 'bloatware' pre-installed - at least, not that I really noticed; just the usual Microsoft Apps that come as part of Windows!When it is running, it truly is whisper quiet yet still allows me to browse the web, edit spreadsheets, watch videos and play music without seeming to struggle, so more than adequate for my needs.To begin with, I was a little worried that the blue glow emitted when the device is on would be distracting or overly bright when the room was dark, but this proved to be unfounded, and is actually very subdued (looks more intense in the photo than it really is!). Talking about that glow, it is worth mentioning that the light changes to a dim red when the device is put into 'sleep' mode - a really nice touch to visually indicate its status at a glance.All in all, I really can't fault this MiniPC; outstanding value for money, and delivers great performance while taking up minimal space!

Bought the 16GB RAM & 512GB HD version. Had it up and running out of the box in less than 10mins, needed quite a few Windows 11 updates initially.Really small footprint and nice additional feature that can add extra SATA drive for extra capacity. I have found it totally silent.I was looking for a cheap Windows PC and this totally fits the requirement and exceeded expectations .Web browsing and MS Office are really fast.

For a Small Budget Mini P.C. you Get what you Pay for. A Small compact ideal p.c. for Desktop Chores. Emails, word processing and Media is Good and runs easy on this Quiet Box but sometimes it Will Struggle a little due to the Lack of Memory. Is this Day & age 8gb of Ram just isn't enough & 16gb would of made this Machine a Real 5 star Winner. Don't expect to play games on this Machine even old Retro games with A confident satisfactory smooth Running as it will Struggle.On the whole. A good machine but the lack in memory lost a Star

So for a while I had been running my Plex server from my customer built gaming PC. The problem was that even at idle my computer was pulling quite a lot of watts - CPU approx 28w, GPU 18w (both measurements taken from HWInfo64), and I cannot even begin to measure how many watts all 9 fans, water pump and everything else in my setup is pulling without having to buy a measuring device to plug into my mains. If I was to hazard a guess, I would say around 100w at idle. So how many watts was this little PC pulling at idle?Three.That's it, 3 watts of power when just sitting there. Even when plex was streaming a film to another device, it only went up to an average of 6. This machine's CPU apparently has a TDP of 15 watts. I've yet to get it to do that with what I do.So what you get for your money is an Intel N95 CPU - this is essentially 4 e-cores with no hyperthreading that runs at a max boost of 3.4Ghz. At idle it can run as low as 900Mhz from my testing and average use it pushes at around 1.5-2Ghz. This would be web browsing and youtube video watching. The memory config I got was the 8Gb model, which for the purpose I needed it for is perfectly fine. a 256Gb NVMe drive was installed the version I had which contained the Windows 11 OS. Kudos to the seller, absolutely no bloatware was included. It doesn't really get any cleaner as an install, unless you wish to wipe and install your own OS of choice. It's not a lightning fast drive but still fast enough for day to day usage and still a million times faster than a mechanical hard drive.Two HMDI outputs are supplied which can drive two 4K (2160p) monitors/TVs at a max of 60Hz. Of course if doing so, try not to push too much out of the CPU at once, especially multimedia based stuff. The manufacturer even supplies a short HDMI cable in the box.What is a great little bonus is the removable SSD drive enclosure on the underside. If you have no intention of installing one, then you can just simply unclip this part and the PC is even thinner. However it is a great addition and again for my Plex server it meant I could connect a 2Tb SSD drive to the underside to store my media.Now I run it as a Plex server and for that it is perfectly fine. Just some tweaks may be needed to ensure that Plex is running towards the faster end of transcoding as opposed to pushing the CPU and you will be fine. In all honesty I couldn't see really any difference in quality on 4K videos.Gaming? Forget it. Unless you plan to run older stuff (retro gaming like Mame/Retroarch etc...) or DOS based games (DOSBox etc...) then it's not meant for current gaming. Will most modern games run? Yes. Is it worth it? Absolutely not. But then it wasn't designed for that.Noise levels, it really is a quite little thing. As long as you have the power settings to balanced and not try to push it beyond what it's really designed for then you barely hear the fan at all. Mine is located right behind the TV in my front room and even when everything else is off in the room, I struggle to hear the PC running.Aesthetically it looks very nice with the LED lighting going around the top, just under the lid and through the cooling fins, so if you have the PC on a desk, it does look very good.So in conclusion, if you are looking for a daily use mini-PC for browsing, office type work and even basic low spec gaming or running a media server, this machine is for you. For the price, I cannot really fault it.

I bought this small PC as I needed a PC to get me by while my PC was fixed. I just bought it because it was cheap and I thought it to get me by until I have my PC repaired. I didn't expect much but I am really surprised is actually quite good except for the small fact that is running Windows 11. It's done everything I need it to do so if you're looking for a cheap PC this is going to be a very good option. Depending on what you need it for it's not gonna be no good for games or video editing or anything like that but you do have a four-core processor and 16 GB of RAM and three USB ports and two HDMI and two ethernet sockets.I run multiple programs one of these programs was Dragon NaturallySpeaking 15 simultaneously and it handles it without a problem so if you're gonna be using this for the Internet, Microsoft Word or Excel, and programs like that are not too demanding this will do you very well. It is very small about the size of a large tub of margarine is also very light and extremely quiet. The only problem that I have with this PC is there's no like to tell you that it's on. Because it is so quiet you would be quite easy to leave this on and not realize there's virtually no sound from the fan or hard drive.
