Am I missing something or is this really good deal even without the SSD?

I feel like considering the ram, it's a really good deal during this time.

I'd also say don't buy this because it's onboard ram so you cannot upgrade it.

Based on prices I've seen over the last three months while keeping an eye on mini PC's, this appears to be a good deal for this moment in time. Performance is pretty much identical to 7735HS machines. Wish it had four USB on the back instead of the second LAN, but that wouldn't be a deal breaker. Amazon reviews of the same machine at $359 look good too. Honestly considering it for a Batocera machine and would just boot off external SATA SSD for time being. Only downside seems to be soldered RAM. If you can live with that, might be worth it.

I have this Aoostar Maco. I like it. Since it doesn't have RAM slots, it has an extra (3rd) NVMe slot.
Cons: fan can be noisy under load unless power is restricted in BIOS. Sometimes won't wake from sleep (requires a total power cycle - pull power plug and plug in again).

Looks like it would be decent for some local LLM work with an oculink or USB4 external GPU, anything I'm missing there?

You should be able to run Gemma 4 26b a4b QAT, Gemma 4 12 or Qwen3.5 9b directly on it. Qwen 27b will probably run slowly at Q3. I'd just get something else if wanting a real gpu rather than going occulink unless you have some good reason for having separated components.

I see people do not like AliExpress. Bad news spreads further than good news. If a product or service works well, you never hear how good it is. But if it sucks, everyone hears the bad news.

I personally have bought 200+ items over the course of 1-2 years. I've had 3 things get lost and refunded. The worse part is the wait and lack of shipping info. I get notifications that it's still in China and yet it was delivered today.

If you can wait and want to save a buck, id try it again.

I got this. Trades blows with my desktop for gaming (i5-14600K, 5060Ti 8GB, 32GB DDR5) when I have the OcuLink plugged into a dock with that 5060Ti. Everything works great and the RAM is literally the entire cost of the PC (and more). The processor is also 8 cores and performs close to a 5500 in gaming (16MB L3 Cache), better in multithreaded apps. Overall thoroughly impressed and no major quality issues so far in the month I've had it.

I haven't come across anyone that successfully setup oculink based LLM successfully. It can get expensive and unwieldy. To a point where you are better off going with a full case and keep everything contained.
