Before making the choice about whether to go with various Ram + SSD option, I strongly suggest you watch the review video I've posted in the first post of this thread.

The 16GB Kit comes with two Single Rank 8GB modules (Ram chips only one side of the stick) which reduces the performance by certain degree as Ryzen Processors benefits from dual rank memory.

My recommendation will be buying the barebone and then get your SSD and Ram. They're charging extra $150 for 16GB Ram + 256GB SSD configuration which you can buy yourself. 256GB NVMe SSD can be found as cheap as $30-$40 if you look for the deals and 16GB kit will cost $60-$70.

Why is it PCIe Gen 3? 5000 series should support Gen 4, no?

I have this processor in my razer 14. It is an absolute beast and even more impressive when running at 20w. Simply incredible how much performance you can get at that low wattage. Otherwise you should be able to use AMD APU Tuning Utility to push this processor up to the 75w+ range to really crank things up. I would do like the other user recommended and just go with the base model and then wait for some much faster sodimm to help the igpu.

Because it's size. It's not much bigger than a Mac mini.

You can add an external GPU through the M.2 slot.

If i choose without ssd and ram, how does it come with an os? Do they provide a key?
Normally they can store the licensing information in the bios, just like any modern laptops. I'm not sure if this comes with Windows license if you buy it without storage and memory but if it is, that's the way the key will be stored.

I'm looking for something like this but for in a high vibration environment. Anyone see any fanless versions on the way or have any knowledge of how one of these would hold up in an automotive/marine setting?
