Competitiveness


The machine is faster than my amd ryzen 5 atx machine and it uses 1/4 the power of my old machine.


Much faster compared to the earlier 4 core intel powered u59 model.


I know there are other mini pc brands available, but i see no reason to look beyond beelink unless something changes.


With the option to run this in performance mode and similar performance it isn't worth paying more for an 8945hs based option.
