Almost all desktops at this price range top out at 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD, so this is a pretty sweet deal

It has a current gen i5 processor, and not an F or T version

Would be better if it had 16GB ram but other than that...

It also has 2 HDMI ports on top of the regular VGA which is nice on a machine without a dedicated GPU

SSD seems to be m2 but I couldn't verify that (a reviewer mentioned that but they are all vine reviews of free product, so not sure how reliable they are)

FYI the Ninth Gen is rather meaningless as this 9400 is no faster than the 8th gen 8400. They are basically the same within 3% of one another.

The I9 is the only one that really gets a boost but few would notice it. They are insanely fast, either one.

Yes if you mean two HDMI ports and a VGA.

There is also space for a GPU card if that is what you meant. Though the power supply might limit you causing you to have to upgrade it if you want a very strong GPU card.

Exactly. It's why I went with an 8400 pavilion with 16 gb ram, 310w gold psu, rx550, open nvme slot for $350. OK putting in my own SSD as I prefer Evo.

One of the reviews mentions poor cooling. Any cooling fans recommended?
