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

This style of mini PC was popularized by the Intel NUC - I own two NUCs plus a GEEKDOM NUC-clone and love them. This Ace Magician mini-PC isnt in the same league, build-wise, as the NUCs or even the clone, but the configuration is the minimum I would recommend to anyone (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD). Im an Intel guy, so am not intimately familiar with the AMD lineup, but the Ryzen 5 5600U is a decent midrange processor with good integrated graphics.

This is an incredible Solid State drive that has excellent speed and power. Super easy to set up.

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.

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.

We got this mini PC for our family room where it gets good use. It is very light weight and comes with a bracket that allows you to attach it to the back of a monitor if you choose, making it excellent for tight or limited spaces. It runs very fast and Im able to run All the Office Business apps without any lags or problems. If you have a portable monitor this would be great for traveling as its very compact and light weight.

I use it as a compute server over VNC (its headless). I dont care for Windows 11 but am getting used to it.

I needed a replacement for an old desktop that had reached the end of its life.

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 have a small business that specializes in destruct testing. We use Mac computers for our engineering group and Windows for the regular business side. We wanted to add a computer on a kiosk in the waiting room where customers could come in and look at films of some of our testing over the years. So, it was important to have Wireless capability for the network and for the keyboard/mouse and that the form factor be small.

Ive used this mini pc for a few weeks and am impressed with its performance. The low noise isnt too bad; however, I was concerned it would overheat.
