Contrary to another review on this mini computer, it DOES in fact work great with pfSense. Running pfBlockerNG, the CPU use varies from 0 to 2%. The Realtek Ethernet adapters are running fine with zero hiccups.

I had a really easy time installing this computer. It is really small fits in my pocket. The best use i found for it was to use it in my 1up arcade. I liked how small it was because it can fit into my arcade. And the other programs run pretty fast on it.

Im writing this so other people arent so skeptical when buying a mini pc. It just simply works. Setup is a breeze and normal web browsing you will have more than enough power. Hooked up 3 monitors to this thing with no issues. Very impressive how small this thing is too. Can mount it anywhere and it doesnt really get hot after having it on all day. Will update on a longterm review but most people shouldnt be upset if youre just using it for normal web browsing. Im sure it could handle light gaming but I mean very light gaming. Picked this up for $150 which is the lowest I could find. For a 3 hdmi display computer. Didnt want any other connections due to the monitors I already had

This thing is tiny, but it is mighty! Great for hooking up to a TV for general use. Took me 5 minutes to set up. Excellent value.

I purchased this mini PC to use for my home office. I have a NEC Projector and 2 32 On Tvs connected on either side, I can stream on the center or run my Web Apps, and keep email open on one screen and surf on the other. Seems to work well.

Cant put wifi on 5ghz connection, tech support is non existant and useless. Only got this particular product forbthe 5ghz connection but there is no preferred band option in network settings and again no additional support. Get any other product that lets you set your wifi in 5ghz so you can actually get the most out of your home internet dont buy this garbage product. I will be refunding soon. Thanks for nothing. If I could rate 0 stars for false advertising I would.

- pros

I have it running Manjaro i3, and its pretty decent. It works well as a good little office computer, and does what I need it to (including screen-sharing and video conferencing). Its not terribly fast, but thats not why I bought it. I bought it to be a small, lightweight machine that could possibly even double as a pfsense box at the entrypoint of my network. For a brand new computer this cheap, it is a good value, and does the job.

First off, I cant say this enough: This system is SO tiny! I couldnt believe the size when I got the box (which was only about 5x5x4 total). The box, which includes the computer, power cable, HDMI cord, and mounting hardware, was smaller than most computers. The system itself is super tiny, too! I included a few pictures to show off its size - one in comparison to a MacMini, and one showing the internals with a 2280 M.2 drive. The computer is barely wider than an 80mm NVMe drive!

I have purchased several ACE Magician PCs for specific applications in my home and business. They are a very nice package of features for the money, including lots of I/O, a speedy processor and enough memory for the limited tasks I put it to. Also the customer service is very responsive, should you have questions or concerns. I have tried others and I recommend the ACE.
