  At first I hesitated to buy from those guys, but it turned out really great. I have been using one of their i7 mini PCs for over a year and it is rock solid.

    Any thermal throttling probs?

      Not at all. The fan sometimes suddenly goes faster during heavy operations, but that is normal for any computer.

  Hmm these feels overspecced for office/mini pc but underspecced for budget gaming pc, I think

  What's the pros and cons compared to traditional desktop and laptop apart from form factor?

  Can it do 4k 120hz playback and all the video/audio codecs?

    They usually have a lower power consumption, are quieter, and can fit in small spaces. But they are less upgradable. It can't reach 120Hz but should support all common codecs.

    My third mini pc and I just love the form factor and bang for buck. It is my main pc and gaming is really retro stuff. Emulates up to the PS3 fine.

  Has anyone got GMKtec N97 , 12th Gen 12GB, 512SSD. Thinking of purchasing for normal browsing and office type work. Is it any good?

      I tried a N100 (roughly the same as the N97) using windows - and it was … ok, but not really something I'd want to use every day, even just for browsing.

      The NAB6 Lite with 32G/512M is only $549.99 (https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0D2HDV8T9) - it has 4P + 8E cores vs the 4E cores in the N97 so will have much better longevity if you can spend the extra couple of hundred.

    Yeah I've got the GMKtec G5 (N97 with 12GB DDR5 and 256GB SSD), bought it on sale for $230, it's good. Perfectly fine for light day-to-day browsing use, but definitely not a gaming machine unless you only play old retro games. I wouldn't use it for serious work, it's not designed for that — you should look for a more powerful desktop for productivity use. Some Windows 11 updates take forever to install (literally half an hour to 45 minutes or so). This is a classic Intel Celeron machine, albeit a very efficient one. And the GMKtec G5 form factor is so cute and tiny, so it's perfect for home lab/home server use.

    I'm now using it to run Home Assistant (HAOS, bare metal) and it's perfect for that. The fan is essentially inaudible and the system consumes 7.1W of power at idle (set to the lowest 8W CPU power limit profile in the BIOS), which is the vast majority of the time — about twice the power consumption of a Raspberry Pi, but far more powerful and flexible, and probably cheaper too. I wish I'd listened to people sooner when they said that the N100/N97/N95 mini PCs are perfect for Home Assistant — they're absolutely right.
