Did I do good?

It's a solid unit. the R 8745HS is right there at the sweet spot of Low Price to High Performance in the Mini PC space. If you have serious technical issues in the first 3 weeks, consider returning the unit to Amazon for a replacement or refund. It's not about brand, it's the reality that ALL minis

Looking for a mini-pc

I just picked up my second mini pc, the Aoostar GEM12 Max with Ryzen 7 8745HS , 24GB DDR5, and 1GB NVME SSD. Amazon USD 579. I needed an Oculink port to pair with my Aoostar AG02 with 9070XT.

Would this mini pc be good for mainly indie games and mid-range gaming? if not what would you recommend?

The ones I saw for $369.99 (8745hs/16gb/512gb) seem to be gone… Here’s a link to the bare minimum mini PC I would personally buy…if I wasn’t just buying it specifically to emulate older games. https://www.amazon.com/AOOSTAR-GEM12-MAX-8745HS-RAM/dp/B0DZH9RM9K?th=1&psc=1 With the spec and oculink port

Question about the GEM12

Solid deal that that price, though if you don't use the AI NPU for anything, the 8745HS is the exact same unit and APU without the NPU for less money. Currently running the 8745HS Gem12 MAX with 32G, and Dual 2TB Drives, AOOSTAR AG01 Powered Oculink Dock with a R 9060XT. The BIOS is mostly unlocked/

Opinion about Aoostar Gem 12 pro max

I have a couple of AOOSTAR GEM12 MAX units. Neither is the "PRO" (has that little screen on the top cover), but other than that the units are identical to what the OP describes. One is running an 8845HS, the other an 8745HS. They basically are good performers, run cool and quiet out of the box, can

GMKTEC EVO-X2 Oculink with RTX 4070 TI

I use the same adapter with a RTX 4070 Super and it works perfectly. No issues at all. I'm using the 12VHPWR connector that came with the gpu and the performance is almost as good as the desktop variant. My mini PC is an aoostar gem 12 pro max though with the oculink.
