How well does this work with Photoshop (vs other mini PC's)?

Getting ready for deep discounts when November comes around for these mini PCs. Looking to get one to replace my aging laptop (Intel 6xxx series).

Adobe requires 2000 passmark for decent performance, this gets 5700 so it will be adequate (680M) and the processor is also adequate:

Now a 780M would be better of course that will cost you an extra $100 or so. If you are not a pro and dabble this will be more than enough. The only thing to note is the newer ones have faster NVMe speeds and moving data is very important to perceive speed also and 512 GB won't do it so perhaps you look for a 32G/1TB just in case if your budget allows.

I bought this and its up and running pretty slick driving 4 monitors. BUT, I'm afraid to use it! I bought it thinking I was going to reinstall the OS but now I have cold feet about doing that. I don't want to run into issues (and possibly turn it into a brick) and potentially spend a whole day screwing around with the reinstall issues that I know I am going to get. (I haven't done a reinstall in many yrs and now I'm too old & tired to play that game anymore)

What should I do, return it? ?

signed,
weary

ps: How hard is it to do a clean install. My USB with WIN11 is ready to go ...is it USUALLY pretty straightforward for a novice to do a reinstall. Or will I be scrounging the innertubes looking for drivers for countless hours?? Thanks for any little help.

I want a dedicated gpu for some AI workloads, I think something like this with an eGPU might be cheaper than building a gaming rig (with some tradeoffs).

Never heard of oculink, is it proprietary?

This one has dual 2.5G Intel NICs and Oculink, but the Minisforum has a newer chip. The Minisforum is probably better for gaming but I don't know how much better the 760M graphics is over the 680M. If the 760M is RDNA3 I think it has about 10 or 15% better graphics performance than RDNA2 (680M). Not a huge jump but it makes a lot of games that are semi-playable on RDNA2 GPUs more smooth and enjoyable from what I understand.

Other factors to consider are thermal design and product support. GMKtec is an ODM for other mini pc brands that recently started selling through retail. I haven't bought one, but this design looks nice for homelab. I have no idea about their customer service or software support. I have heard mixed things on Reddit about Minisforum's QA, but they've been around for a while and are one of the top brands. It's a risk you take with any of these minis.

I think it's best to take a look at reviews of the exact units because the thermal designs in mini pcs seem to vary a lot, which can make a big difference in noise, heat, and throttling when manufacturers opt for the high performance processor variants.
