Great deal. Coupon works on the 3000 SFF as well. Picked up two SFF with 12500 and 16GB for $245 each.

Would this be okay to connect to a 4k 65" tv For YouTube / general browsing.

Or would there be too much input lag?

Got one SFF i5-12500 with 16gb and 256gb ssd for $245 as well. Should be a nice upgrade for my BI server, i7-6700.

Another cashback site has 2.5%...

Great deal, I got one of the MFFs upgraded to the 12500T and it was $234.25 before tax. Luckily I still have some DDR4 from my existing 7500t mini PC to avoid the outrageous RAM prices at the moment.

coupon seems to work on i3 12k no matter the form factor (SFF/Tower/Micro).

How would this do as a Swi*ch emulator machine using Retrobat on Windows?
I have a chuwi minipc with a 10th Gen Intel CPU and 12 GB DDR4. It craps out at Wiiu emulation.
Would this machine be worth the upgrade for my use, or will the benefits be minimal?

Thanks for your response

A drawback to the 3000 series over 5000 or 7000 is that there are no USB-C, you'll have to get a low profile USB-C card if you want to add any.

I was looking at MiniPCs much more expensive than this, but this really hits the spot for my needs. I got the i3 option with 2x8GB RAM (presuming dual-channel). I can install SATA drives for data backup, and this will be a much better Tailscale exit node than my existing setup. Thanks, OP!
