I just got one a few days ago and it's pretty awesome. It's as fast as my 7800x3d desktop at non-gaming tasks and runs cool and quiet. You can hear it when beating on it, i.e. gaming, otherwise it's basically silent and this is on the 70w profile in the BIOS. I'm too lazy to get out the DB meter and test it, and I don't care anyway - the reality is if you have any other room noise at all, even a ceiling fan, a TV on in the background, appliance noise, etc, it's virtually silent unless you are a foot away. An external Blu-ray drive makes more noise than this. I don't understand all the whining about only 1 SSD slot either - if you're trying to build a server, there are better minis for that (more cores, high-gbit ports for optical, etc).... Get the barebones model, think ahead and buy a big enough SSD for your needs. This also allows you to get a faster drive than the basic low-end Kingston they put in when you buy it with a drive. I got 48GB of RAM (the same Crucial Minisforum puts in it stock, which is excellent memory) and a 2TB Silicon Power US75, which Crystal-Diskmarks only a hair slower than the 990 Pro in my desktop for $50 less and is DRAM-less so it runs cooler, I thought that was kind of important in a mini. 48GB allows you to give the GPU 16GB and still have 32GB of usable RAM. Unfortunately, the GPU RAM allocations are in powers of 2 (2-4-8-16) and there is no option between 8 and 16GB - I'd like to be able to set 12GB. The Wi-Fi is the Killer 1675, which is an upgraded version of the Intel AX210 (which is almost universally loved), and it can use the excellent Intel Driver and Support Assistant that notifies you of new drivers when Intel releases them.
It runs Far Cry 6 at ~60 FPS at 1440 using 1080 FSR set in the game and using the in driver upscaling (RSR) to boost that to 1440, while still running pretty cool (case cool to the touch, air blowing out the exhaust only moderately warm). The 16GB allocated to the GPU let you run the HD textures, which with lower than 12GB will run fine for ~10 minutes and then choke your machine (so all those tests running the built-in benchmark with HD textures on 8GB cards are BS, it'll run the benchmark but choke in the game). Aside from the HD textures, which do make a difference, everything is set to low and FSR on the highest quality, DXR off. You'll need a real GPU if you want maximum visuals. It still looks pretty damn good like this at 1440, but comparing to my 7800x3d/7900xtx with everything on ultra, there's a big difference when looking at one right after the other.
Starfield runs at about ~40 FPS set up correctly. You have to set your monitor resolution to 1080 manually, which is a really dumb design, but then you can run it decently and use the RSR to boost it up to your monitor's resolution. The HD Reworked textures made a BIG difference in visual quality from stock. Pretty much any AAA game is going to need to be run on low settings on this, but the results are really impressive for an iGPU.
Ironically, AMD says NOT to use FSR in conjunction with RSR, but I found it to be the best setup with this PC for performance + quality.
Waiting on getting a GPU back from a friend, then next up is Oculink. I ordered a bare eGPU chassis from China to make an enclosure for one, so it's a little nicer than the PCB and PCB sitting out on the table with wires to the GPU and to the PC, but for now I'll just see how it works with everything exposed. Literally NO ONE makes a Razer Core X style closed eGPU enclosure with Oculink.
I had an issue with the monitor not waking up after screen timeout. I turned off auto-installing manufacturer's stuff (sysdm.cpl, hardware tab, device installation settings - set to off) and reinstalled the AMD drivers from AMD's auto-detect utility that installs the latest video and chipset drivers and everything else from AMD, and it seems to be better. My AMD laptop had a similar issue so this may be a "thing" with AMD mobile setups. There are also updated drivers from Realtek on their website for the Ethernet.
All in all, we're always going to want more slots, more ports, and more power, but for a tiny little box PC, this thing is VERY impressive.
