- Chinese market ONLY cpu. Doesn't even come up on AMD (USA) website... Are we stuck with MinisForum Drivers or can we use the newest AMD Adrenalin drivers from AMD?
- Downclocked 200mhz on cpu and 100mhz on 780M compared to the normal version 8845HS.
- All AI features are removed or disabled. Compared to the other 8000 series Ryzens tha HAVE AI. Not a deal breaker. Just an FYI.

I would guess that from a GPU perspective, this system with the downclocks mentioned above probably performs about as well as a 680m, perhaps a little better because of the RAM speeds (mini's use CPU ram as vram, it's shared). If you are a 30fps console gamer you can get most if not all games (except what I call out below) running at PS4/Xbox ONe level graphical settings locked at 30fps at 1080p. I own a 680m equipped AMD system and I've been impressed, but I am not a "60fps minimum or nothing!" gamer.
I would say the only thing a MiniPC isn't doing is anything Unreal Engine 5 based, and I mean like Avatar, Callisto Protocol, etc. Those are going to be...rough. But, for that, there's Oculink and USB4 eGPU's
thinking of picking this up for a daily browsing, video and Steam gaming.
Also see a UM870 with 32gb/1tb for 447. Can I do better than that with the barebones and parts separately?

That being said I do like the flexibility of being able to replace whatever I want with a build your own/barebones build (and more options with OS instead of MacOS or Asahi Linux)
