Powerfull and excellent graphics great buy!
What can I say??? I have two cheaper n100 and nuc gmk mini pcs. I researched this heavily and saw great ratings. Aside from some aggravating sound issues with retro Linux which I had to go into windows reset sound back factory odd yes...The pc kicks butt! It's very fast and graphics have no equal in my eyes. Price is cheap and compares to many older pcs costing 600 or so. I like my retro stuff and this pc plays them all!!!! It has excited me for first time in last 10 years for even powerfull unit so very pleased with this so far!

Great High Performance Barebones Kit
Very powerful and affordable. I don't like the plastic clips when holding the lid because of brittleness, but I can't knock a star down at this price point.I even tested the iGPU with Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on lowest settings 720p in conjunction with the Lossless Scaling app on steam using upscaling to 1080p and frame generation and it was quite playable.I gave this to my mom as her new daily driver to replace her Dell Optiplex 9010 Micro, and it runs very silent when web browsing, doing spreadsheets, streaming video, and other basic productivity tasks.

Good quality mini PC with some minor issues
I have both 870 Slim and 890 Pro versions, they are both very fast and quiet with some minor issues.The main differences that makes the Pro version slightly better are (1) It is slightly faster, maybe 3% or so (2) has an NPU, but it is practically useless (3) Pro version has two ethernet ports instead of one (4) It has an oculink port, which uses the PCI port so, you can only install one NVme HD if you use the oculink port. These differences do not matter for most users.Overall I am very happy with both of them. They are both small, efficient, they don't get hot or make any fan noise. They can be directly powered from USB4 port, with some decrease in max clock speed.But there are some annoying issues, mostly minor things: (1) The wifi cards are not supported properly. The slim version had a wifi card which was not recognized by linux. The pro version had a slightly better wifi card, but was still an obscure brand. The issue is not the speed here, making them recognized by the OS. I replaced them both with more common models, it is about $20-30 to replace each. (2) The windows key was invalid in the Pro version. The Slim version was barebones it did not come with any OS. (3) The Slim version has screws at a very inconvenient location. You have to remove bottom pads glued to the box. Without the pads the vent will touch the surface and will not work well. It is not a good design. The Pro version is much better, but it has two cables attached to the lid on opposite sides, and it is not east to detach and attach them. If they were on the same side, the lid could be opened without detaching of them. (4) I tried installing 96GB RAM but it caused some glitch with the GPU driver. I tested the RAM and it was not faulty. 64GB or 32 GB RAM both work fine. (5) I don't like the bios, it is too rudimentary with very few options.Despite these issues, I like them a lot. This generation of AMD mobile chips (8945, 8745, etc) are really great. I also have a Mac mini pro (M2) and their performances are similar. Mac has a better GPU but the AMD is faster for most of other tasks.

14,000MBPs using RAID 0 NVMe on this is INSANE!
This is crazy! At this price, this little mini PC supports RAID 0 (and RAID 1) NVMe Gen4 with two M.2 slots that already have thermal tape and heatsink attached to the rear panel! The UM760 Slim comes stock with a mid-range Gen4 NVMe M.2 (the second M.2 is empty). It runs at a little over 4500MBPs (see photo).After opening it (must remove the rubber feet first to expose the screws at the bottom. Be careful removing the bottom panel as a cable attaches a cooling fan and can be easily broken off during removal!Once opened we installed two Fanxiang 2TB NVMe Gen4 NVME SSDs, Enabled RAID in the BIOS, rebooted back into the BIOS to the RAID options and created our RAID 0 array. Then we installed Win11 24H2 from scratch (it defaults to installing PRO since the product key for Windows is embedded in the BIOS)!You must download the drivers from Minisforum, however, the RAID drivers for Windows installation are missing, but you can download them direct from AMDs website for this chipset.Once the install of Win11 Pro was done, we got over 14,000MBPs on sequential reads and over 12,000MBPs on sequential writes! This is insane and overkill for a Ryzen 5, but I can't believe how well this worked on such a budget-friendly mid-range mini PC.This mini PC is super quiet and has a 2.5GBe LAN port. You will need to provide the LAN drivers, either downloading from MinisForum driver page, or use a USB to ethernet adapter (sold here on Amazon) to get you online if you don't have a spare PC to download the drivers and you did not download the drivers to a USB flash drive before your re-install.Overall, this may not be the best mini PC money can buy, but it's definitely the best mini PC you can buy for the money in late 2024!Highly recommended!!! Great value! Dual channel RAM, WiFi 6E and Bluetooth v5.3... What else could you want without spending a lot more?

UM760 Slim So far excellent
UM760 Slim received it yesterday and it works brilliantly I do not use it for gaming super fast I will see how long it will last. the only thing is it has I believe either 2242 or 2230 1TB ssd i guess to keep the price low no Biggy since you can add a 2nd ssd other then that it updated to win 11 24h2 after the win 11 updates quickly wifi 6E works great it picked up my printer and Bluetooth devices quickly I use my Monitor which puts out 90w type c so it powers the unit and does video/data on a singe cable leaving my desk clear of cables sweet! AMD software was already installed, also shows NPU in task manger so the 7640hs can run AI content when software is available. Came with 16gb ddr5 5600 I added another 12 GB total 28 GB more then enough and keeping the boot speed I am really impressed also stays very cool so far.

Quiet Win11 mini PC
An excellent way to replace a Win10 machine that cannot be upgraded to Win11
