This AOOSTAR mini PC stands out as a compact Ryzen 7 Pro 6850H box with 24GB soldered LPDDR5, USB4, OCuLink, dual 2.5GbE, and Wi Fi 6, making it especially appealing for homelab, Proxmox, and light gaming setups. The 680M iGPU and fast memory are described as strong for an integrated graphics system, and HDMI 2.1 is expected to support high refresh 4K output. The main tradeoffs are the soldered RAM and no included SSD or operating system. Deal pricing and coupon behavior were unstable, with reports of codes expiring, checkout errors, and the price jumping into the $400s.

The AMD drivers were easy, but what Intel driver should I search for? I saw general Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers. Couldn't find a generic Ethernet one though.
Per Bios:
Intel® Ethernet Controller I226-V

Welp i ordered 3 of them and one of them has a completely non working system fan. I didnt notice it until my hdds were freaking out due to the heat and the computer was physically hot to the touch. I have a return in place, but they (ali) wont honor the sale price on a replacement. Reaching out to aoostar directly. Real bummer. Just got my k8s cluster up and running and then this.....

This is a crazy good deal. Nothing is touching this.No SSD, but 24GB (soldered), USB4 AND Oculink is phenominal.
I see that the app has something that mentioned oculink but upon looking at the pictures I don't see the port. I see USB C's, USB A's, displayport, HDMI, ethernets, power and auxiliary jack. Is that something you have to plug inside on the board?

Look at the promo picture about the fingerprint scanner... The side of the pc has a covered slot for it. 😉
