Community Reviews
This OmniDesk is a compact Ryzen 7 8700G desktop that looks strongest for office work, media, light gaming, and general everyday use. The 8700G and its integrated graphics are described as capable of low end Minecraft, many DX12 games, and even 2K 60 fps in some titles, with the 65 watt power supply giving it a bit more headroom than similar mini PCs. The main limits are 16GB of memory, which is thin for local AI, and a case and power setup that may be awkward to upgrade. Open box wear on the SSD also showed up in one unit, so it suits buyers who want a small, capable machine more than a highly expandable one.
The Ryzen 7 8700G can run DX12 games smoothly at around 2K 60fps in this class of desktop.
The 65W PSU design can provide a bit more power than many 45W laptop-style systems with similar architecture.
USB microphones can bypass the computer's sound card, which helps recorded audio match expectations when using digital mics.
An open-box unit reportedly showed no media or data integrity errors and no error log entries despite NVMe wear.
The 16GB unified memory setup can be a poor fit for local AI workloads that need more RAM or VRAM.
HP prebuilts reportedly use proprietary power supplies and custom motherboard connections, which can complicate PSU replacement.
The case heatsink may cause the 8700G to hit 95°C thermal throttling during heavier use.
An open-box unit reportedly appeared to be a 2024 store demo with measurable NVMe endurance wear and unsafe shutdowns.

regarding the quality of recorded sound, as long as your mic (or other recording hardware connecting directly to the computer) is digital then it should sound just like the old computer. for example, if your microphone connects via USB port, it bypasses the computer's sound card and you don't have to consider whether the sound card is good enough.

looks like some have wired up a standard ATX PSU: https://youtu.be/fXmLxYBcAl4
