SER5

I got a Beelink Mini PC SER5 Pro running SteamOS in one of my cabs and I absolutely love it.

After owning desktops and towers, I finally started buying Lenovo thinkcenter mini PCs. I now have a Beelink SER6 Pro with a 32GB ram and a 1TB hard drive. I’ve been using this for a at least a couple of years, so this last fall I updated all the computers at our office to BeeLink SER5. Very very pl

I built an elegant little Steam Machine for about the same price (~$400) using a Beelink SER5 PRO Mini PC by installing Bazzite, the Steam Deck’s native OS. Also integrated Emulation Station to handle retro titles like any other Steam game. It’s a straight-up, normal-ass, couch console I play with D

The Beelink SER5 MAX I recently setup included a clean windows 11 install. I was completely blown away by the lack of bloatware and legit just kind of stared for a few minutes as I contemplated life and the meaning of an OEM machine NOT having bloat/spyware galore (well beyond win 11 itself).

I have a beelink ser5 max with a full batocera build installed on a secondary drive. You can find the system itself for around the 350+ mark with some shopping, though it seems to be running a bit more expensive now (I bought before tariffs etc became an issue). It comes with win11 pro but you can i

up until recently I ran ~25 containers and ~6 VMs on my mini PC, a Beelink SER5 Max 32GBthat I got last July for a little over $300. Virtually my entire homelab was on it, and I still had about 40% of the RAM free. Handled Jellyfin transcoding without missing a beat and can even run a small 7b qwen

You have no idea how true this is. I discovered Linux in the very early days (around 1992) when it was on version 0.93b or something ancient. Tarballs and a shell. No windowing, DEs or anything. A true learning experience because you often had to find your own way. The Internet resource back then wa

honestly those are all pretty light workloads, you dont need much. a beelink ser5 or eq12 would be plenty - they go for like $150-250 on amazon and have decent cpus. or if you want even cheaper, grab a used lenovo thinkcentre tiny or dell optiplex micro off ebay for like $80-100. either way 16gb ram
