The fans are very loud at full blast. Other than that, no issues at all. I got it specifically because it's the cheapest machine on the market with an oculink port (that doesn't take up an m.2 slot like on the minisforum models). Runs great with a 3090fe using the DEG1 dock.
If you don't need oculink, there are better mini pc options... many of them with coupons on Amazon. If you're not gaming, for $80 more, you're in m4 Mac mini territory, which will crush any of these mini PCs at that price.
LG and Samsung had it in their TV's as well.

Any recommendations on a mini PC without oculink for light gaming?
For light gaming, the m4 is the clear winner. It might depend on how you define 'light.'
Any of the Ryzen 7000 and 8000 mini PCs (which are basically the same as 7000 more or less) would fit the bill for decent iGPU gaming on the windows side.
If you want to roll your own with a barebones, the AOOSTAR gem12 with 8745hs is $329 right now. It would pair very well with the 64gb ddr5 memory deal at Amazon right now.
