Nice review! Thanks for explaining the numbering scheme for the Ryzen CPU's. I consider myself fairly competent when it comes to computer hardware, but there is always something new to learn.

Tech iFixit Notice.

Really enjoy these teardown videos. It’s often interesting to see what’s inside the case and how it’s put together.

Keep up the great work my friend. 👍🏻🙏🏻

[facemcshooty]

you disassembled the unit, that alone put, s you above many other reviewers of these tiny pc, s, great job, now start modding it XD, great Video Mate

The 7840HS is a monolithic die and would easily support memory speeds up to 8000 MT/s. MiniPC's are highly configurable, upgradable, and easily repairable and the price of a similarly configured Mac Mini would be 3x as much. If you have or need Mac software then that's your only option otherwise I would choose the miniPC all day long, and even though Microsoft is continually making Windows an unbearable data harvester and advert generator.

I have a basic Trigkey green with an n95 cpu and I love it! Great for just browsing the web on my TV! I paid $130 last christmas for it!

[kirkkohnen]

It would cost Trigkey almost nothing to make the computer also able to use 22110 SSDs. They would just have to make a removable screw post that can be moved 30mm further away from the M.2 connector. Just a thought.

Best PC info channel by far. Oh and the Crucial P3 will break in 6 months

[nadavrot]

How is the fan noise profile? Mac minis are dead silent. Is this mini OC silent? I previously bought a SER5 max from the same company and the fan noise was unbearably loud.

[Neurbit]

Great review. Not sure if you mentioned this. Is the NIC intel?

[jrbailey]

I would LOVE to know which Keyboard you are using, how much it costs, and where it might be procured: it looks like a great 6mm key travel, and as a touch typist, I miss such definite deep typing tactile key response. Thank you.

Further, would you please consider doing a Warranty Review for the various Mini PC companies offering their wares on Amazon? The Beelink hardware looks nice on paper and in pricing, HOWEVER, if something goes wrong with it, you MUST ship it all the way back to Red costs are enormous these days (especially considering the need to send it Insured) for international purposes, so having Service Centers 'in country' is a real requirement for me.

Thank you for your time.

Cheers from the Oil Patch in Central WY, USA

Im looking forward to the arm based windows mini PCs. This looks really great though.

[LordVA]

I got one, ngl its great for such a small device - doesn't replace my monster build main pc, but its fantastic at work. Fits into a small hardcase into my bag and outperforms the crappy corporate laptop 1000 fold. If I'm ever stuck away from my main monitors out in the field, or another office space and I need to do something that would overwhelm my work laptop, I just need a power socket for the PC (or a beefy 120w portable powerbank) and I connect my USB-C portable touch screen monitor to the mini PC. Got that mini PC on sale for under $700AUD. Bargain.

Will later upgrade the RAM to higher MHz cards but even then... as it is now is pretty damn good.

[ayodyarathnayake]

why didn't you try editing some videos with it?

[gdesign]

So the TRIGKEY S7 or Geekom A7 for light to medium photoshop work or what else in the mini pcs make would you suggest

[baekmedier]

Did you see the new Windows Surface pro 11? with the Snapdragon X Elite???? Would that actually be the best edition ARM "PC" with two big screens connected?

[qbsterman]

@TechNotice using USB4 type c you can par your mini pc with External graphic card, turn off internal M780 and than most likely you will be able to run PBO with Cine R23, PBO have restriction on Bord and Socket power draw per specify power draw of particular CPU, so you know 65w series 95w, 125w etc... So if your turn of Integrated Graphic card, the chip draw less power there for your PBO should not trip overcurrent protection especially if you play with PBO settings like Curve optimizer and per core undervolteing that could be great next video for You :), Good luck man and great review. I am considering Minisforum AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS Mini PC--NucBox for my mother, specially that she retired now and she dont use PC as much and full tower takes space etc, and that you can plug to her 65inch oLed Tv and she can have fun from couch position xD

[etoksikon]

If you compare with Mac, I think you should expand the tests to include Davinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere because people will often buy Mac Mini for this software. I suspect that a Mac mini with 16GB RAM may be much faster than this mini PC in video software tests.

[andrewvickers]

Looks like a good'n, thanks for the teardown. As a non-techie I've also come across the Beelink SER7 but can't figure out why it's so much more expensive? Bigger brand name?

[richi]

Much better than a Mac and a lot cheaper! Nice video 👍

[AmbientMusicStudio]

I guess I just don't understand where people are coming from when they make a claim like this. I want high performance, but only to run the OS I prefer and the applications I need. So regardless of how great this is, it isn't a Mac Mini killer. It can't run my OSX software. Why make that comparison at all? Doesn't the machine have it's own merits? Is it a killer mini for people who want and need Windows or Linux? Isn't that what makes it a really great system? Before going off the rails, please understand I'm not claiming any superiority of Mac over Windows or any of that tired out nonsense. I'm just disagreeing with the blanket claim that this is an unqualified Mac Mini killer. It isn't.
