I recently got my Minisforum UM790 ProAND I LOVE IT! It's super fast, it's so small and SO powerful. I run some games on it, nothing too fancy. things like Red Dead Redemption 2 and Cyberpunk. No glitches what so ever. To me it's astonishing to see how these things evolved. I started with 33Mhz and

Seven years of running FreeBSD on ThinkPads alongside Linux — lessons I'd give my younger self

Using a Minisforum UM790 Pro with 64GB RAM and 5TB of SSD storage, alongside an MS-A2 powered by a Ryzen 9 9955HX with 96GB RAM and 6TB of SSDs. I’m considering adding an OCuLink eGPU setup with a 32GB Radeon R9700 AI GPU connected to the MS-A2. The Minisforum systems are geared more toward homelab

Minisforum AI X1 or UM790

Here's my personal perspective. Seen too many UM790 Pro mPCs on the diagnostics bench in front of me to be an advocate, notably as a long-term investment. It's a much older platform, with little to no innovation or improvements. The AI-X1 on the other hand, after seeing my first one for the first ti

This is Confusing!

I had the Minisforum UM790 Pro and it was a very quick little device. I ran Linux on mine and it was great. I eventually sold it and got a Mac Mini, which has also been great. It's amazing how much computer they can pack into a little box these days. I don't have any personal experience with GMTek b

Want some advice on a possible new build.

A 7700 with 32GB? A beautiful base for a server. The Quick Sync on 7th Gen Intel will do x265 (HEVC) 10 bit. You won't need the 2060. As for a gaming rig, given the market, I'd recommend one on the AMD based mini PCs. I've had a Minisforum UM790 Pro for a bit over two years, and it's great for 1080p

Hardware advice?

User-facing vs. background was the boundary I adopted for the two servers. Yes, the 'hub' is a server. User-Facing (Hub): Services and applications that we regularly interact with - from wiki to LLM services to various databases to calendar and contacts. The daily stuff. Background (Support): Servic

Is Minisforum Pc Reliable or absolutely not?

I like the brand and the tech, disappointed with support. Been using my Um790 pro for over a year now and really happy with the performance of the unit. Only caveat is the WiFi quality is not great, so I installed a stronger antenna l. I would recommend going for a barebones unit so that you can dea
