    Continuous planting on Windows 10

    I have blue screens several times a day and I can't figure out why.
    I don't recommend it at all

    Small, powerful machine

    Hello,

    This is a condensation of technology compared to the 1st PC.
    I've installed two OS's (each one a disk) without too much trouble after visiting the BIOS (which doesn't display the amount of memory installed!).

    I'm not sure how much memory I have installed, but I'm sure it's a good idea to use a usb key for the installation and to use OS's with good hardware recognition.
    I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use a usb stick for the screen, but I'm sure it's a good idea to use a usb stick for the screen, and I'm sure it's a good idea to use a usb stick for the screen.

    I'm sorry,

    Expectations met

    Small but strong.

    Having already a Ryzen 3 3500U laptop, and already very happy with it, being able to run my favourite RTS, StartCraft 2 without a dedicated video card, I decided to replace my big 4th generation i5-based desktop, for occasional gaming and especially for multimedia including photography.

    I'm very happy with it coupled with an M2, SSD and 32GB of RAM. It can run just about anything at ease and consumes less power, heats up less, boots up quickly, etc.
    In addition to taking up a ridiculous amount of space compared to a desktop. Rich in USB 3 port, C port in front, back, HDMI and DP port, and Wifi works great. It's hard to ask for more for the price and size of the mini PC.

    I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use a SSD card reader instead of a microSD, but I can easily plug in an ext card reader.

    a little disappointed so far

    I wanted a small machine, Ok
    I wanted a quiet machine: I'm a bit disappointed because I find that the fan starts up a bit too often
    And on top of that, I have problems with the driver of the integrated graphics card under win10, I have the screen flickering at times even after reinstalling the official ASUS driver. I hope they will fix this problem soon.
    It's a lot more expensive for the same RAM+SSD configuration but I almost regret not buying a mac mini with the M1 chip...

    perfect for my use

    I wanted a discreet computer to put behind the screen with a little bit of power. I put a M.2 samsung 970 evo plus 250go + 2 DDR4 8Go 2666 MHz Puskill that I had in reserve. It's very easy, then usb key with Windows 10 and it's gone, installattion in less than a quarter of an hour. It's very fluid for office use.
    The only downside is that the fan makes noise when the PC is used, I'm a bit disappointed on this side.
