This ACEMAGIC mini PC stands out as a compact 8745HS system with 32GB DDR5, a 1TB PCIe 4 SSD, and enough speed for daily use, media, and light gaming. The price is described as strong for this CPU and memory combo, especially versus other recent 8745HS and 8845HS deals. USB4 is confirmed on the USB C port, which helps offset the lack of Oculink. The main caution is ACEMAGIC's past malware controversy, so a fresh Windows reinstall is the safest setup. Small form factor limits still apply, especially for heavier gaming and cooling.

Common Questions (4)

  • For this BF window, it was described as the lowest seen for the 8745HS/8845HS/H255 class, with similar systems often staying above $400. The tradeoff is that comparable deals have appeared lower before, and some buyers point to missing USB4/Oculink or older refurbished options as better values.

  • Older ACEMAGIC mini PCs manufactured before November 2023 were reported with pre-installed malware in Windows files and the recovery partition, so a factory reset may not remove it. A fresh Windows reinstall from Microsoft media is the safest way to start clean, and newer shipments are claimed to have the issue resolved.

  • The seller-confirmed spec is USB4 Type-C with up to 40Gbps, DP 1.4, and 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz output. The unit also includes two front USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports at 10Gbps and four rear USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A ports at 5Gbps.

  • The RAM is not soldered and can be replaced or upgraded. Mini PCs are easy to open, but the components are very cheap, so the RAM and M.2 SSD need to be seated carefully to avoid errors.

Junk product, unreliable brand. I have very bas experience with this mini pc. Would recommend to stay away from it.Also malware risk.
Which model and when - if it was more than 2 years ago may not be relevant anymore - all I read are good reviews on diff platforms - eBay, Amazon, direct, aliexpress - u have your typical 5% who are going to unhappy with every product

As for malware since they have been under additional scrutiny I would feel better about them than others

Can't the malware be removed by simply re-installing the OS?

Yes it can, probably not necessary but definitely a good idea to do a fresh install when you get it. Like others have said there were a few instances from a few years ago where allegedly in an attempt to reduce boot times a vulnerability was created and 2 viruses were found. The company apologized and took steps to rectify it. Most of the bad comments are from sour users who are experts on being miserable and little else.

No USB4 or Oculink is not cool.

You could jerry-rig oculink, but these ports should be default by now.

This is a good little one for the kids, plus the small factor is nice too

The USB ports info is conflicting.

The seller did confirm the following for me USB-C: The USB-C port is USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A (10Gbps), and the system also includes USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A ports (4 ports at 5Gbps). USB Ports: For the USB 3.2 ports, we have 2 x Gen2 (10Gbps, front) and 4 x Gen1 (5Gbps, rear) ports.That said for S3A model in 2025 usb-c has been a usb4 so won't know for sure till I get it. This listing seems to be more accurate to what the seller communicated to me vs conflicting info in listing

https://ebay.us/m/KIAUfq

For this price and 32GB ram and 1TB PCIe 4 NVME SSD, and all the other features, at this time, although I agree not having usb4 and oculink is a bummer I have to take it.

I don't have an immediate use case for usb4 and oculink but hopefully this gets me to time when ssd and ram prices r more reasonable and then u upgrade

I bought the Kamrui branded one for $346 from the same seller. Specs are the same. It was great for daily use, media consumption but overheated while gaming and that caused a lot of stuttering in games. With DDR5 memory prices being as ridiculous as they are now, it might be a good option so long as you understand the limitations of such a small power house.

Yup...

Not surprising. I got my RAM about two - three weeks ago... the news stories about the shortage were their but not like now. And prices seemed to jump higher with each article written.

When the computer companies run out of their stock... which is happening now... I think we will see higher prices with all PC's in the near future.

Can't say for sure but these guys sell thousands and they are specially advertising the cooling features of this rig. Kamrui I think is still a smaller house brand

Do they provide key for Windows 11 Pro, so that it could be reinstalled?
