Thanks for following through! And the improved top-camera angle makes the video look professional. 👌 To be honest, the loose screw was funny. 😂 Personally, I would consider an actual dud device as QC issue. I agree it could be unsettling the first time you hear it, but the loose screw technically did not affect functionality. "Do not block the fan" most likely meant do not block the rotating fan. Chinese-English sometimes translate too literally for native English speakers. SER5 MAX is where is where you get the audible fan noise. I definitely hear mine. Overall great video. I particularly like the teardown segments.

Surprisingly I also got the extra screw in my SER5 5700U that I just bought

@tracteur1234 Ай бұрын

i got one if you want to have it for a long time i recommand to put 40 Watts cpu max and your temp will not go higher than 75 and donwload RYZEN CONTROLLER to put in 40 watts everywhere and 75 max temp and put 8 gig ram in video memory if you have a 32 gig version ; have fun with this super pc/price :) that is for the 5800h version

What do you recommend to maintain the ser5 5700u pro version for a long time

:) Thanks for sharing! I had issues with getting all the screws out to upgrade RAM, etc, BUT I had to pull SSD OUT due to HEAT issues :( So now I have it externally on USB front port. Also purchased a clamp on fan to put right above unit to cool even more. Still shuts down occasionally.

That's unfortunate! Maybe you would be better off with a 2.5" SATA SSD instead?

Thanks much, and it was a SATA SSD in there :(@@SmallBoxCentral

Interesting!

@OmarMekkawy 9 ай бұрын

I had the same issue as you have. A screw that was lying around on the motherboard!!. Luckly, I watched your video before getting my PC.

I'm glad my video helped!! Thanks for watching

They mean do not prevent the fan from turning. Do not block the fan. How would you say it instead?

@SmallBoxCentral 10 ай бұрын

If you put something in front of the fan, it is still technically blocked even if it spins, you're just blocking the air and not the blades. Your own words would be better "Do not prevent the fan from turning"

I do some light 1080p video editing daily, office work and heavy multi tasking with different programs open at the same time. I don't play any video games. Can the pro handle that? I'm looking at the 32 GB RAM version with 500GB Memory

@SmallBoxCentral 7 ай бұрын

The video editing would be my only concern, everything else would be fine. If you have the budget, I suggest you move up to the Minisforum UM790 Pro, I think that could edit 1080p comfortably

Could you please tell me what the maximum HDD capacity I can install here is? Thank you.

@megazoid 8 ай бұрын

Good machines. Performance to price is probably the mini PC sweet spot. That secondary fan design is a donkey though. I'm embarrassed for Beelink every time I see it.

@DimitryChamy 9 ай бұрын

I just returned one because the ports were the wrong configuration and the WI-FI was dead on arrival. Replaced one had WI-FI but ports still wrong. Decided to keep it unless I discover more issues. My first pc so can’t speak to performance as of yet.

@SmallBoxCentral 9 ай бұрын

That is unfortunate! Hopefully it performs well for you, mine worked very well other than the screw issue

@Thepigeons377 10 ай бұрын

Big stick of chewing gum on the nvme , but is there any cooling / heatsink ? Looked like it just stained the panel with a David Dickinson orange glow . Another nice video though 😁

@SmallBoxCentral 10 ай бұрын

Thanks for subbing! The NVME presses against the metal plate with the fan on , it's not exactly thick but it's better than nothing

@mixatall Ай бұрын

Good morning, can you help me? I have a pc like yours, and I have the following problem, after it turns off, the cooler turns on and doesn’t turn off anymore. It keeps running all the time even with the pc turned off. It only stops spinning if I remove the power cord from it...

Seems to be a common problem - there are some solutions/troubleshooting on this reddit thread: www.reddit.com/r/MiniPCs/comments/11fzu4d/beelink_ser5_5600h_fan_wont_stop_after/

I'd like to use this mini pc for creating my artwork using Krita or Photoshop. Not as a professional of course 😊. Do you think it would run without problems?

@SmallBoxCentral 9 ай бұрын

I can't speak for Krita, but for Photoshop I think this would work perfectly fine for casual use :)
