Pros & Cons
Pros
Minisforum um350 w/ amd ryzen 5 3550h w radeon vega 8 graphics. Comes with a handy vesa mount and an adapter if you want to use a 2. Widescreen display. It's not a hardware issue with the card, it's a driver issue with windows 11. Upgrading the ram is... Read More
Well built, shipped quickly, surprisingly well equipped for adding a 2. Footprint. It is super fast, quiet and so compact.
Everything works out of the box on linux. Adding a usb sound headphone works. With the external antenna it works fine.
Great for home computing/theatre pc and light gaming. Great form, can be mounted to back of monitor. Great for normal web surfing and 4k content.
Cons
Blue tooth drops, wifi drops, the system freezes. The most important issue is that it crashes, and often.
Going back to standard hd (not ssd), and better support. I am about ready to pull all of the hardware apart and get the soldering iron out.
Highlights
Quality
It was super easy to setup, runs almost silent, lots of memory, cpu, and for an integrated graphics card, can do some decent gaming.
Easy to set up, transfer my documents and apps, and runs perfectly!
After being very happy with the system for 10 months it failed.
Can max out a lot of old title’s, like skyrim with texture mods etc, the forest on ultra high settings (i got the ryzen 9 32 gi... Read More
Price
You probably should not have to buy an adapter to use the wi-fi on a new computer, but for $20 additional cost it makes this a ... Read More
Overall i am pleased with the value and performance of the device.
I did not purchase this (um690) from amazon as i got mine direct from the minisforum website as they were (maybe are still) at ... Read More
However, this only added $20 to the very reasonable cost of an otherwise good mini computer.
Shipping
Came promptly, and was easy to set up and get going.
Came wit windows 10 and upgraded easily & free to windows 11.
I didn't want windows 11, but that's show it came shipped.
I originally purchased this via their web store but their wait time was about a month.
Packaging/appearance
The b550 was packaged well and came with a case for storage of when traveling.
Competitiveness
Which brings me to amd and their drivers being an issue.
I would strongly suggest to anyone purchasing this unit to immediately replace the ssd with a more reliable brand.
For users who are rely on better online and human customer service from dell and hp, this is not the computer to get.
Compared to the hx90(5900hx) with a similar spec, i don't notice any performance difference.
