I have the same model as that one But with the i7-13700h ,still going strong after about 1 yr of use,also have 2 other ones from minisforum as well and all going good.

Yes…I would never have anything more than a n100 CPU in such a small case. Likely to run too hot. I have a couple of n100 Trigkey G4s about £160 (when on offer) with 16GB RAM. I am able to run them for 24 hours nonstop doing AV1 encoding, I wouldn’t risk that on an i9 CPU in a NUC type case. Try running the i9 flat out with AV1 encoding for several days nonstop. A n100 CPU can easily substitute for a Raspberry Pi for a similar price once you add in all the accessories such as NVMe.

Great use of the video blur filter. Alder Lake is where any Intel purchaser should likely start and for the price, this does look a fairly reasonable purchase for what it can do, so could last quite a while. I like the nice little touches like the supply of screws for the 2.5" drive and the heatsink around the M.2, which should really be a standard feature in all mini PC's. I don't know why any machine needs rubber feet to be removed to get at the case screws, when drilling a hole in the middle would easily allow access for a screwdriver without risking the feet losing their sticky grip.

I got mine yesterday - very impressed with it. My previous pc was based on an i7-4790k cpu so this little box was a quantum leap in performance. I'm not a huge gamer so the lack of a dedicated gpu doesn't bother me. Only negative is that I'm not liking Win.11 so far but it's a case of getting used to it. Thanks for your vid - I used it to install an ssd.

I also have Kubuntu installed on a 240GB ssd inside the case

the thing you refer to as a monitor mount is called a vesa mount.......they are on the back of tvs also.......it can also be used with a monitor arm.

@leepspvideo 16 күн бұрын

I’m aware of VESA. I called it a monitor mount as I think more people will identify with what it is.

1:30 You mention the space for a 2.5 inch SATA drive, then refer to a picture of a 3.5 inch drive ?? I'm assuming a 3.5" won't fit in it?

@leepspvideo 16 күн бұрын

Just space for 2.5”. I searched Amazon for 2.5”, they showed me 3.5” 😃

I have the NAB9 version ...its better and cheaper. No need to unscew anything . all the cooling is on bottom and the drives and ram etc. is on the top and you access them with an easy click off top cover. I also have USB-C on the front.

@erikkarsies4851 17 күн бұрын

I don't think this is cheap. No decent iGPU and an old i9 of 2 generations ago. I hope the AM5 barebones will be coming soon in my country. Because for almost the same price you can build a 8700G system then. The 8700G is finally on a price point it gets interesting to have one. But if you cant wait that long you might consider a 5700G with a AM4 barebone also?

@erikkarsies4851 16 күн бұрын

@@leepspvideo I don't see many small PC use cases where top 'multiplecore' CPU performance is the priority, but many where a decent GPU performance is needed. That seems the reason that small PC's without decent GPU power are always on sale ? They don't seem to sell well? I mean if you really need that much parallel processing power a normal PC with a dedicated GPU will have so much more power if it can render on the GPU that the choice for a small PC with a iGPU wouldn't be the 'adult' one. And your own bench shows that tasks which use 8 cores or less the i9 isn't better than the 8700G

@erikkarsies4851 16 күн бұрын

@@pawelfilar single core it's the same between these two, 8 core the 8700G performs better and only in cases which the 14 cores can be used all together (which is only in real rare use cases outside benchmarking) the i9 is considerably faster off course.

Thermal issues probably. The i9 is a hot enough chip as it is, and it's a very small enclosure.
