> 24 hourBought this as a gamble after MS stopped supporting Win. 8.1. I connected 2 ten year old monitors to the HDMI ports on the computer and using the multiple display ability run Netflix, YouTube, and pay bills etc. at the same time without any hiccoughs. Trans coding audio is fast but video transcodes do take significantly more time but acceptable. The form factor allows it to easily fit on a small spot on my desk and its operation is nearly silent. I added a USB sound (DAC) dongle (Reiyin) for optical output to an old set of Logitech speakers which also works great. For the money I dont think you can get much better. Very pleased

> 24 hourThis thing walks all over my J4125 Celeron box. It streams 4k video without a hiccup. Im using it for my large iTunes library, and as a Plex server. Works great! Im not concerned about the single-channel memory; its def fast enough for my use.

> 24 hourIve worked with a wide array of devices over the years, but this one has surprised me more than most. If youre looking for a Windows PC on a budget youd be hard pressed to skip this one. I purchased this device mainly to check out the new 12th gen Intel Celeron processor, N95. They dont call them Celeron any longer, but thats exactly what these are. However, what Ive experienced is definitely not the typical performance from a Celeron. Theyve certainly found out how to pull more performance than their previous generations. Im running Windows 11 Pro and my browser of choice is Chrome. Normally, on a Celeron device with 8GB of memory Id be limited to 4 to 5 tabs and not much else. For the last week Ive used this as my work PC and on average Im running Chrome with 15 to 20 tabs including Outlook and Teams. I have Discord up at all times and Im constantly pulling up Zoom for meetings. Ive had to run Visual Studio, Insomnia, and Notepad++ as well, without closing any Chrome tabs. This would have been nearly impossible with 9th gen Celerons and below. 10th and 11th gen would have definitely struggled. I never experienced any studder or slowdown. In the last two days I did reduce the number of tabs to 5 or 6 as Ive been testing some games. Im able to run Minecraft Bedrock, Dead Cells (Steam), and TMNT Shredders Revenge. All of them ran at least 60 fps at 1080p. I would definitely not call this a gaming machine, but anyone that likes playing older titles, retro games, or modern 2D games will not have any issues. Also, game streaming via GeforceNow has worked without error. I paid approximately $150 for this MiniPC and its been totally worth it. I plan on some Linux testing as well.

> 24 hourPretty decent. I’m setting it up to run my nas. Will update more if warrants. One thing to note. The ssd expansion will only fit the 7mm thick drives. I had 2 older ones that I was going to use in it and neither one of them fit. It is such a small form factor, I can’t really blame them, but did kind of suck because I don’t remember seeing that. Not a huge issue for me though.

> 24 hourBought it for an older person who uses it mostly to check email, keep up with the news, and play mahjong and solitaire games that were designed to run on Windows 98 (surprisingly, these games work perfectly on Windows 11 - I could never get them to run on Windows 10.)

> 24 hourI love this small cute box, so I have spent enormous time trying to achieve what I wanted. Its a decent full-blown machine in spite of its size. It works fine (I am not an expert) with Win 11.
