Compared to the GMKtec K8 Plus 8845HS its not a gaming mini PC at all. Compared to AMD Radeon RDNA integrated graphics Intel graphics for processors like the Core Ultra 5 125U are almost laughable. The K15 within its "U" class 57W MTP, 3x 2280 M.2 NVMe slots (1x Gen4x4, 2x Gen4x2), dual 2.5GbE NICs

I would suggest possibly looking into the recently released GMKtec K15 Core Ultra 5 125U instead. The 4x Xe-cores are meant Intel QSV transcoding more efficiently. It's a newer build design with better dual fan cooling, dual 3.5GbE NICs and multiple M.2 storage slots. There's even OCuLink to support

I know a number of people who have purchased the GMKtec M8 PRO 6650H to run Bazzite OS for living room Steam Deck console and EmuDeck classic console emulation. One guy even used it for the basis of a $1K Steam Machine alternative using an Aoostar AG01 external graphics card dock and an RX 9060 XT 1

I scanned and worked on countless GMKtec PCs and never found any malware or virus (so far) much less Ground.exe. I would immediately return the PC for refund and report seller. If there's trojan malware and viruses on the drive there's no telling what else has been tampered with. If this was a manuf

I had (in storage now) a hx99g (6900hx + 6600m) for a few years. Was compact enough, and served my needs for 1080p gaming and I ran my plex server off of it. Used it for everything. Had very limited space where I was living at the time so it fit the bill. Only real issues was it ran hot on the ssd/r

u/Mrkawphy So, the VRR/YUV 4:4:4/4k120Hz/FPS HDR (full Ultimate GFN features) are what make these computers expensive, and hard to find, as we have to use Intel or NVIDIA GPUs (AMD doesn't support HEVC YUV 4:4:4 decoding in hardware), with capable HDMI 2.1 FRL ports to connect to the TV. I ended up

Most with a $600 budget have moved on to the smaller die size AMD Ryzen processors in recent years for more power and performance. Someone I know at the college bought a GMKtec K15 that they're satisfied with although it's recently went up in cost since they're purchase. Maybe look at the Geekom GT1

These 2 are going for about $350 (barebones). They both come with OCulink if you need more graphic-power. GMKtec NucBox K15 Mini PC Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 125U OR GMKtec NucBox K12 Mini PC AMD Ryzen™ 7 H 255

u/Traditional-Guide-58 The GMKTec NucBox K15 is an option as well. It currently seems easier to find AMD mini PCs with the proper HDMI 2.1 FRL ports (compared to Intel), but then YUV 4:4:4 is lost since no AMD GPUs can decode that.
