I'm very interested in this form factor and this seems to be the best in specs so far at a <$300 price point. Curious if anyone is able to help answer these questions:
What mac mini generation would this most closely resemble? Comparable to M1? Is this a good alternative?
Would this be good for basic photo editing and large excel spreadsheets? Seems like that's where 32gb ram would help but not sure about DDR4 vs DDR5 and the impact there.
Assuming this will connect fine with a NAS system? (Preordered the Ugreen NAS box but I'm a newbie here)

Which would you buy for basic gaming? the AMD for $370 or the Intel for $270?

Looks like graphics are better with the AMD (which also a bit newer) - but is it meaningful to warrant the extra $100? https://nanoreview.net/en/cpu-com...n-7-7735hs

AMD Ryzen 7 CPU/32 GB DDR4/512 GB SSD $300. Extra $30 is worthy, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...RP9NM&th=1

Seems Ok for low demanding games and emulation up to PS2?

Thank you, though I think this Ryzen on Amazon is one generation older even...

People are saying that dealer is suspect though.

I'd say this. (Unless you got all other apple products, which Mac Mini will have great seamless integration experiences. e.g. iCloud etc.)

Do you want a Mac, with integration with everything iPhone (Photos, News, Music, Chat, etc.) or do you want Windows? That's the key question; figure that out then figure out the rest.

This is cheap for what it is - a basic PC in a tiny box. For Plex server (plus PlexPass) type stuff, it's very fast.

This, Passmark: 3400 / 17200

M1 Mini: 3700 / 14200
M2 Mini: 3900 / 15500
