ACEMAGICIAN Ryzen Mini PC, AMD Ryzen 5 5600U(up to 4.2GHz) 6C/12T, 16GB DDR4 RAM 500GB SSD Mini Computer, AM07 Mini Business PC USB-C, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi Windows 11 Pro, Support 4K@60Hz

Let me start this out by confessing that Im not a techie by any stretch of the imagination. So Ill leave the nuts and bolts to the more qualified. Im just a guy who cant even remember the last desktop I purchased. But I still recall the thrill of walking into a store and plunking down 2k on a Compaq that couldnt do a quarter of what this baby can.

Theres a nice little warning sticker on the top of the unit thats, well, confusing but seems to suggest that you should skip wireless connectivity to create a local account. This well also bypass any setup updates.

I was looking for a mini PC that I could connect behind my television and this one seemed to fit what I was looking for.

This is an inexpensive upgrade for older desk tops, where you already have one or more monitors. Its very fast for routine tasks and works fine on simple games and video.

This PC has really good specs for the money. The Ryzen 5 is basically the same as an intel i5. The 16gb of ram and the 512gb SSD are nice to have in such a tiny form factor and I think for the price, its the best specs for the dollar Ive found so far on amazon.

The Display Port does not work. The HDMI port works fine. Amazon sent a replacement the next day, the Display Port on the replacement PC does not work either.

This PC is quite amazing, especially for the cost. It has Windows 11 on it and does not have a lag. Right now, it is handling standard work things and gaming. We are currently running Steam gaming and it works well. The system seems to have a little trouble with Oculus VR rendering, but the system works well beyond that.

Having two NICs, I purchased this to be a replacement PFSense firewall and proxy server. As of the begining of 2023, the hardware in this is too new for the current PFSense so, had to switch to the Dev version. This computer may seem over kill for a firewall but, with PFSense it is also a proxy server and so much more. So, if you want a PFSense firewall with this computer until PFSense 2.7 is officially released, use the Dev version.

This item has been with me for a very short time.

I just bought this computer a few days ago, and it is not letting me past the point where it prompts to put a custom PIN on the computer when first setting up the PC with my wifi, Microsoft account, etc. I’m stuck at an infinite loading screen, and there’s no option to skip the PIN setup. I only put 3 stars rather than 1 star because the computer seemed fine otherwise (despite hardly using it) and perhaps I can get this issue resolved.
