Air12

Recently have a local IT group choose the Geekom Air12 over a number of Chi-NUC competitors for a number of reasons, the primary being build quality. Other advantages included Adata CBDAD6S480016G-B commercial grade 16GB DDR5 SODIMM Gen3x4 supported Lexar LNM620X512G-RNNNU NM620 512GB retail NVMe Re

The Beelink MINI S13, Geekom Air12 & GMKtec NucBox G10 are all solid entry level choices, with each supporting full Gen3x4 NVMe SSDs & upgradable RAM. The NucBox G10 provides additional features like HDMI 2.1, a 2nd 2280 Gen3x4 M.2 slot, full function USB Type-C & AMD GCN 5th Gen Radeon RX Vega 8 in

In 2025, a gaming server is often more dependent on the game(s). The four players, the basic formula is quite simple CPU: 4x cores or greater, @ 3GHz or higher, PassMark multithread score 4000+ 16GB of RAM, preferably dual channel NVMe storage Ethernet connection, 2.5GbE preferred Entry level Intel

First, understand that Alder Lake-N/Twin Lake mPCs are generally "a race to the bottom", where cost-cutting is the goal & expectations for failure can be relatively on. "You get what you pay for..." Alternately, & to some extent "ironically", the Geekom Mini Air12 appears to be in a class of its own

The only issues some life helped have had with the MeLE Mini PC Quieter 4C thermal throttling under load, with a few complaining about DDR4 and/or 8GB power and performance on model so equipped. The more recent "go-to" has been the Geekom Air12 N150 16GB, finding the DDR5 RAM performance substantial

It's a good question, and unfortunately it's the only shortcoming. Geekom's "cheated here" to meet an industrial PC standard. Instead of offering an additional M.2 for SATA or Gen3x1, they've included an SD slot 😯 Removable storage is still a requirement in some PC IT sectors, with 2TB A2/V30 equiva

Helping someone else, went through this earlier in the year. It's not uncommon that some of these entry level Alder Lake-N/Twin Lake mPCs develop USB/HDD problems (I'm looking @ you NucBox G5), although the V1 somewhat stood out. On the bench, the front USB 3.2 ports failed to provide static data th

Have a local business that was in a similar position, this week they're deploying dozens of Geekom Air12 DDR5s. It was there budget choice out of more than 20 candidates, primarily for serviceable DDR5 & full Gen3x4 NVMe. They made their choice before the GMKtec NucBox G10 was released, which is giv

Ok so you first are trying 32Gb 5600MT/s 2Rx8. I hope it works, if not, 1Rx8 24gb will have a very high chance. I'm still researching beelink s13 and gmktec g3 plus on the side, but those have really poor ssd read/write speeds (avg 800mb/s) and even fail completely after a few months according to us

Don't know about ONN devices (check app store) but I use a firetv cube and sticks as well as a chromebook, android mobiles and tablet as well as via a web browser to access Channels DVR and it works fine on them. The Channels DVR server software doesn't take much to run it. From a NAS to old PC's wi
