I'm impressed with the Mini PC. It seems to be very good value for money. Mine came with one Crucial 8GB SODIMM too, so I'll be adding a second one soon. My NVMe SSD is a Western Digital SN530. It's nice to see they are using decent components. I didn't like the way the SSD was partitioned (a fairly small C: drive, presumably from an image that fits on a 120GB SSD, and the rest as an empty D: drive) so I deleted all the partitions and reinstalled Windows 10 after my initial tests. The installer found a valid licence key for Home edition but I might upgrade to Pro eventually.
Note that the RAM is clocked at 1200MHz and treated like DDR4-2400. My Crucial SODIMM is actually rated at DDR4-3200 so it's more highly specified than it needs to be. There isn't an option to increase the clock to 1600MHz though. Another thing to note is that the default TDP of the 3450U is 15W but if you run CPU/GPU stress tests the Mini PC can run it continuously at 30~35W, with an initial boost to about 48W.
Yes this mini pc is a good value product. My mini pc is come with 8GB Crucial and 256Gb NVMe SSD. In the 256Gb storage selection, they partition it C drive for 100Gb, the remaining is D drive.
If you want to increase the performance, can download the AMD APU Tuning Utility. I not advice to increase too much, cause the stock cooler fan will be very loud.
Should be okey. Will check and update. I won't suggest to update windows 11. As there still new and there maybe have software not support. Especially the older game may not support.
The 3450U CPU is on Microsoft's compatibility list but the Mini PC can't secure boot Windows (at least, I haven't found an option in the BIOS to enable it). I also haven't found an option in the BIOS to enable the fTPM. I tried accessing Maibenben's website but my browser said that the certificate had expired recently.
@@mitrixph2515 Maybe it could be supported with a BIOS update. Quite honestly, Windows 10 works fine on it so I don't see any reason to change to 11 at the moment.
