5200mhz DDR5
People just chase bigger numbers I have 4800MT. It’s running at 6000mt without much effort. It’s in a minisforum ms-a1. Stable I can’t imagine if I paid the extra money just to end up in the same place.

New MS-A2 Dead
TJmax 78 should be good, I use external usb fans, too. I mine 24/7 with them and have 3 Minusform mini pcs: ms-a1 and 2 G7 PTs. I find them very good quality.

Build my first minilab cluster with 10Gb networking
Are you able to enable Wake On Lan or Restore power after failure ? I can’t set this with my MS-A1 🫤 Very unconfortable for a server, otherwise great machine 😮

I want to replace my current PC with mini PC + Oculink dock - does it make any sense in my usecase?
I have a Minisforum MS-A1 with a Ryzen 7 8700G with an AOOSTAR AG01 dock, and I rotate between various GPUs, including an RX9070XT, and it works wonders. There's a small bandwidth penalty when using OCuLink, but most games are not bandwidth limited. At worst, loading times can be slightly longer, bu

Best value mini pc with ryzen 9?
I have recently purchased a Minisforum ms-a1 with 9950x, 64GB, 1TB version. Here in the EU the cost was 1219 euros on Amazon. I exclusively use it for dev work ( Rustlang mostly), with Fedora and it just works. This is after about 3 months of using it. You can also have a look at MS-A2, read good re

Curious - is it all just about efficiency?
I have a small space to host my environment. It has to live under the stairs with not much in the way of ventilation, so low power and low heat is the priority. Partner doesn't like noise, so low fans too. I have in fact recently downgraded and downsized too. I used to have an MS-A1 with an Oculink

NOOB Question: MINISFORUM MS-A2 Mini Workstation AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX, 32GB RAM 2TB SSD Mini PC
They sell 2 versions, a barebones version with no ram or nvme and one that has ram, nvme and windows installed. From your title it looks like you purchased the full system. Just connect a monitor and keyboard and plug it in. Should work fine. The extra slots and additional hardware is if you want to

If anyone’s on the fence about SteamOS… Do it and don’t look back!
Yesterday I installed Steam OS on a minisforum MS-A1 with a ryzen 7 8700G, 2x16GB RAM sticks at 5200 MT/s and connected to an eGPU vía occulink (ONEXGPU 7600M XT). Before that I had installed Bazzite on this mini PC, but Yesterday stopped working and the OS didn't start, so I decided to make the ins

(Minisforum) Are you still using the MS-A1 without issues?
I’m using it with 8700g. Everything is just fine when I am not playing 3a game. I will keep using and upgrade when amd release new ryzen ai series if ms-a1 supports

Advice needed please!
Build a nice PC for PC use, and buy a separate cheap mini PC for staking use. Something like the Minisforum MS-A1 with 32 GB of RAM and a 2 TB SSD should cost around $700 all in. You do not want gaming or rebooting to be a source of staking downtime. Keep them separate.
