Minisforum and GMKtec are about the only Chinese brands that sell barebones mini PCs. Considering what a 5700G co

The issue with "Future Proof" PCs is choosing CPUs from 2020-2021 with DDR4 memory & PCIe 3.0 data support. Of the APUs above, the 5825U is the most powerful with the greatest graphics performance, although it took a "quick backseat" once the next generation arrived the following year. RAM is an imp

I also have no problems with the K8 Plus or K11. I also have a GMKtec M5 Plus, and I'm very satisfied with all the models I have. The design of the K8 Plus and K11 is particularly good, with excellent access to the CPU cooler, and they also ensure good ventilation.

If you're replacing a Raspberry Pi, literally anything. If you're concerned about TDP, find a 'U' CPU. Ryzen 3500U, 5825U, 7730U (latter two effectively the same chip) are cheap and 15W (or if not by default, can be set there). https://www.gmktec.com/products/gmktec-g10-amd-ryzen-5-3500u-mini-pc?spm

Thanks for sharing. I'll need to see how my GMKtec M5 Plus with 5825u stacks up. It did ship with dual channel ram and decent thermal paste and heatsink and a tiny 40x10mm fan cooling the SSD and ram.

I've been happy with my GMKtec with 5825u. Got it for $250 with ram and SSD. $280 currently AMD Ryzen 7 5825U Mini PC--NucBox M5 Plus https://www.gmktec.com/products/amd-ryzen-7-5825u-mini-pc-nucbox-m5-plus?srsltid=AfmBOoo-bTmoAzL7PKm_5in4RsJV0gle1Mxd8y9kIlGkaMq6-ZqAYAkV&variant=be82d75a-6d7f-4cde-9

Great combo i have an almost identical set up, and can confirm it is very convenient and practical. Good job! I was able to source a GMKTEC M5 plus for cheap and now serving as a streaming box/ tinkercad / batocera / 3d printing pc, basically retro gaming multimedia and light work with low power con

I couldn't afford a nice gaming PC either, choom. I'm literally running this game with 250+ mods on a GMKTec Nucbox M5 Plus mini PC that I got for like $250. Gonks on here were laughing me to the curb when I told them I was gonna play Cyberpunk on it and saying it would never work but I've been usin
