New Customers: ZimaBoard 832 Single Board Server: Intel Celeron N3450, 8GB LPDDR4

A quick search on Amazon shows a few Beelink / other misc. brands that hit that price point and have more RAM & included storage than this. (Just search 'N100 mini pc' and poke around the results). A few weeks ago there was a barebones N100 MSI Cubi on Newegg for ~$120 & N200 variant for ~$150 (if you are looking for a major / reputable brand).

Anything with a much more recent N100 processor will most likely outperform this N3450 (for the 8GB ram model), while being at the same 6W TDP and (officially) supporting up to double the RAM.

Unless you need that funky external PCIe connector and that form factor, I certainly would need to agree with the others on recommending avoiding this. And if you do need that additional PCIe... you'd probably be better off grabbing a full sized board in that case (like the ASRock N100M / ASRock N100DC-ITX that both include an embedded N100 for $130) and a building a SFF PC yourself (granted the cost of storage/RAM/case/PSU will put you over the $150 price point).

Every time one of these gets posted, people come out of the woodwork talking about cheaper SFF PCs that you can get on eBay or Amazon or whatever, and they're entirely missing the point of this board and others like it. It's supposed to be a VERY low power computing platform that you can load a handful of docker containers onto. Half of the point here is the low power consumption, NOT the price to performance ratio.

Also, the Zimaboard specifically has a dual NIC, which is the other half of the point. It's for running stuff like a router/firewall. If you can't think of a use case, this board is not for you. Please move along, thank you.

The CPU and Gigabit Ethermet LAN are deal breakers. For the same price, get an Intel NUC with far better CPU and expansibility.
