        So when you say "fap"… is that what I think it means, or is it some new tech term?

          New tech term. It stands for Fibreoptic Aliasing Processing. It's a new type of internet routing technology

          You're correct, it's a "For Academic Purposes" PC which means that's targeted towards research and educational usage, otherwise known as "fapping".

    Pro vs max?

    • oz-dave on 22/08/2023 - 22:17

      I was wondering the same thing.
      It is not immediately obvious what the difference is.

      • nikuis on 22/08/2023 - 23:13

        MAX seems the upgraded version :

        https://androidtvbox.eu/beelink-ser5-max-is-a-mini-pc-with-u…

      • exile on 23/08/2023 - 00:01
        +4

        The main important difference I believe is the MAX runs at 54W TDP, from AMD default 45W TDP for the chip. Whilst that sounds good, you are increasing max temps by 11deg and increased fan noise with effective increase of only 3-5% performance. Probably not great for long term, but more importantly not worth the premium in price IMHO.

        Also you get the nicer power brick and a newer system fan design and a newer case design. Again not worth the 30% plus price premium for that.

        • Fergy1987 on 23/08/2023 - 07:44

          I think the max was around 480 the other day after a discount and then a $70 off coupon. Seems to not be the case now so this would be the better buy.

          Might wait for them to drop in the $300s

          • exile on 23/08/2023 - 08:59

            @Fergy1987: Wow, really? You should have posted it, that would have been a real bargain if a 5800H model ever dropped into the 300s. Never seen it before though at that kind of price. Anyways I pulled the trigger as it is the lowest I've seen and good price for me to give it a go :)

      Reviews suggest its preloaded.

    • exile on 22/08/2023 - 22:53

      Its stated in the About Item. First dot point paragraph:

      【Tower performance & powerful processor】Equipped with AMD Ryzen 5800H, 8C/16T, 3.2 GHz, up to 4.4 GHz, you can transform your desk into a powerful workstation by simply adding a keyboard and mouse(The mini pc does not include keyboard and mouse).

      • Flenser on 22/08/2023 - 23:44

    • vicerum on 23/08/2023 - 15:21

      Can confirm Win 11 is preinstalled and activated out of the box.

  • gentlekoala5906 on 22/08/2023 - 22:30

    How are the thermals? Does it run hot? A downside of the i5 8th gen NUC I have is it runs hot under load, and the tiny, cheap fan that Intel uses is very loud.

    • Lonewolf1983 on 22/08/2023 - 23:26
      +1

      This would likely be better in that regard
      Better cooler and the amd chips are very efficient

    • rhodges on 23/08/2023 - 07:11
      +1

      I have the same. You can adjust the fan curves in the BIOS and it makes a huge difference. The default settings let it get too hot before kicking the fan in, and then ramp it up rapidly. If you run the fan at a slower quieter level when the CPU is not yet overheating, you can usually keep the heat in check before it gets out of control. I went with something like 80 Celsius, 40% (maybe 35%?) duty cycle, 5% increment per degree Celsius. You can read more about that here: https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-NUCs/NUC8i7BEH-high-fan… .

  • starburstyellow on 22/08/2023 - 22:35

      The Ryzen 5800H is a really powerful CPU for this price, so in terms of bang-for-buck this would be a much better purchase.

      Plus, it's brand new, includes W11, it's easily upgradable, it offers better I/O and nicer cooling and fan profile out of the box.

    • guster33 on 23/08/2023 - 08:45

      Can confirm it does and also for downstream power but your monitor or c type source needs to have enough juice to cover it's power draw for the latter. Don't know the technical but my monitor does 90w and I use it with that.

    I bought this a few months ago as I have precious little space and to replace my laptop which I barely use other than at my desk. I have since been trying to question if there are any drawbacks.

    It runs flawlessly for most home office tasks, runs cool and quiet and I play some age of empires on it (AoE 2 DE on a 4k 27in monitor) Best part it takes even less space and my monitor is able to power it directly so you pretty much put it away like a laptop when done.

    I'm in the process of putting together a desktop arcade emulator and am planning on using an old Raspberry Pi to get going.

    I do want to consider something more powerful though in the future and had been considering finding a mini pc off Facebook marketplace… something like a Dell optiplex micro.

    Would I be better off getting something like this?

    • Fergy1987 on 23/08/2023 - 17:53

      I went down the Raspberry Pi method - got too annoying and didnt have the power. I've seen a few vids on Optiplex micros that will get you to around PS1

      This would be better if you want to get to PS2 - potential PS3 and maybe want to do some basic PC gaming.

    • Ryugen on 23/08/2023 - 17:53

      Yes, cost to performance on these things is pretty nuts, especially considering the low power draw. Depending on the top end of your emulation needs, you could potentially go cheaper as well to keep costs down.

    • Dreamcazman on 23/08/2023 - 18:37

      I have a RPi4 and gave up on it as it couldn't handle most of the stuff I wanted it to do. If you're happy playing games up to and incl PS1, then a Pi4 'may' be ok. Any console newer, don't bother.

      I saw this 5800H mini PC on Amazon, but decided to spend a bit more and get the newer SER6 7735hs. The APU is much more powerful and has double the RAM, just wanted to future proof myself a little.
