Well, this is Pre-order but based on the history of Minisforum mini PCs, they're pretty good in build quality and cooling solution.

Might be a great little box for a proxmox server. Has plenty of cores.

Yes, it is actually more than enough for that and the CPU supports VT-d which I think is required for proxmox.

How trustworthy is this maker and how well do they support drivers,etc? Thinking this could be a good Remote PC and Media Server in one.

More trustworthy than Beelink and they use recognizable name brand RAM and SSDs usually. There is a good community of users and modders for this brand as well (see Level 1 Techs and a Serve the Home forums).

Also note, if you need more network ports there are STLs to 3D print new lids and you can get expansion cards that replace the wifi key slot and can mount to the new lid.

Is this the STL file ?

Not sure if that one will fit the model listed here. But I see that there is a open slot to run the PCIe cable for eGPU.

I don't think so. The mini PC you linked, come with 11th gen H series professors which are significantly less powerful than this in CPU department and over 20% slower in GPU department.

For all the folks who have asked about the quality of Miniforum, I have loved my ryzen based box I got about a month ago. Rips through everything I need and rock stable.

There are two versions on the link. The one quoted by the OP is the NPB7 with the i7-13700H and DDR5. There is the same case with different insides on the link, the NAB6 has the i7-12650H and only does DDR4.
