Specs for PS2 gen emulation?
I have a Beelink SER5 which is a Ryzen 7 6800U and it plays PS2 games perfectly with upscaling. It does an impressive job at keeping up with PS3 and WiiU games, as well (at least the LEGO games, which were the main ones we ran). I believe mine has 32GB RAM and I upgraded the internal drive to a 1TB

Best Mini PC to Buy Right Now? (Performance, Value & Reliability)
I recently got a Beelink SER5 Max (Ryzen 7 7735HS 680M iGPU, 24GB) for my kids to play Minecraft (with some decent shader mods enabled), and it's surprisingly capable for 1080p gaming, I won't elaborate as there are a few youtube videos benchmarking a lot of games for this model so you can see exact

Modern mini PC durability
I've been using a Beelink SER5 Pro for almost 2 years now and never had any issues other than dust build up.

First 24/7 mini PC for Docker homelab / homeserver - what would you buy?
I run a Beelink SER5 Max with a 6800H and 32GB RAM as a PVE host. It’s not under high load, but it runs well. Thermal throttling will only be an issue under CPU intensive tasks, like extracting archives if you download via Usenet. That would be taxing for any system and these do run hotter given the

Is Magicnuc good and trustworthy?
I had a Beelink SER5 Max with a 6800U which ran around 78-79 under full load which was a pretty good temperature for a mini pc. Some of the Minisforum can also run under 80 under full load (not all of them though). But if you just do sporadic gaming and not play too demanding games then you will be

Mini pc to run 24/7
I have 4 mini PCs running 24/7. I didnt know people actually even still turn off PCs still. My beelink ser5 has run 7 years nonstop behind a TV running security cams, it has a layer of 7 years worth of dust on it. You'll be fine with any mini PC. My laptop runs at 55 degrees and my mini pcs run at l

Minisforum came with a different 32GB Ram card than I can buy seperately
The minisforum UM880 idles at 34 degrees day and 29 degrees night and at full spool up it maxes out at 60 degrees. Yes it has 2 cooling fans.

Beelink SER5 (Ryzen 5 5500U) - fan noise started after ~3 years, comes in long episodes
Here's a basic teardown for the earlier AZW/Beelink series. I've used Arctic MX-7 lately with amazing results! If changing the factory thermal paste doesn't change the fan, consider ordering a replacement fan. So far I've found Linda to be the most reliable for Chinese NUC fans.
