Minisforum AI X1 or UM790

Here's my personal perspective. Seen too many UM790 Pro mPCs on the diagnostics bench in front of me to be an advocate, notably as a long-term investment. It's a much older platform, with little to no innovation or improvements. The AI-X1 on the other hand, after seeing my first one for the first ti

I just got my Mini pc , th gmktec k8plus. question about gaming performance on the igpu(radeon 780M)

Frow what I could find on the Internet, the 780M (the igpu) is comparable to a 2040- 2090 wich is even today enough to play in medium setting 99% of games. And yeah I'm really happy. I was looking at mininocs like that for a year now, I had multiple choices and this one was the one who stood up the

Want some advice on a possible new build.

A 7700 with 32GB? A beautiful base for a server. The Quick Sync on 7th Gen Intel will do x265 (HEVC) 10 bit. You won't need the 2060. As for a gaming rig, given the market, I'd recommend one on the AMD based mini PCs. I've had a Minisforum UM790 Pro for a bit over two years, and it's great for 1080p

I’m new to mini pcs is this a good one for the price . People tell me they all have overheating issues.

That is offensively overpriced. https://refurbished.minisforum.com/products/refurbished-minisforum-um790-pro?variant=48403552174369 They are fine for general purpose computing.

Help getting a new mini pc, new build or upgrade?

This looks to be a great option. https://www.minisforum.uk/products/minisforum-um790-pro I'd recommend ordering the barebones kit and getting your own ram and nvme.

Help me decide on a mini for music production amongst these options.

I used to do some music production and I'm looking to get back into it. It's been a long time since I've done any recording. I'm ALSO looking into what PC specs I'll need to to smoothly run a DAW and create both VST instruments as well as recorded instruments and processing and editing. I think your

[Advice] Thinking about switching from laptop to Mini PC

Woah, super helpful, thank you! This lines up with what I'm seeing: RAM: I'll target 32–64 GB; Chrome + PS absolutely eat it. Storage: I agree on a dedicated NVMe for scratch (250–500 GB is fine). The minis I'm eyeing have dual M.2, so OS/apps on one, scratch/projects on the other. GPU: iGPU is fine
