I have the original b550. It runs great. Equipped a 5700g, 32gb ddr4 3600 & 1tb nvme. Supposed to only support ddr3200 but have ddr3600 running fine. Build quality is good. Lots of little extras included.

I used to have a zotac mini PC over a decade ago, and served its purpose well. I have been seeing several news posts lately about this company's products and thought I would ask for some feedback. Thank you for your response. And welcome to TPU!

I bought a UM700 for cheap with 3750H CPU, DP/alt Type-C port, and dual LAN ports. Build quality is very solid, and its versatility / design thoughtfulness is really appreciative. I actually ended up using it more than my DIY-built SFF PC.

The one shown in this article seems a bit of an odd ball though. Why B550 chipset but no PCIE4x16 slot (PCIE3x16 instead)?

I believe it's the riser card that is PCIE3x16, not the slot on the motherboard.
