LoftyAu on GMKtec G5 Mini PC Intel N97 12GB DDR5 512GB SSD Windows 11 Pro $189.99 Delivered @ GMKtec_AUS via Amazon AU

Why/how do you copy off the drivers? Are the drivers not available online?

The N97 is marginally more performant, but I doubt you're buying a mini PC of this class for the grunt.
