Pros & Cons
Pros
Great for the home office setup or a small business. Very compact design, fits well on desk. Easy to hide & perfect for what i want to do outside my home office.
All front-facing usbs are 2. Gbit/s. Comes with two types of mounts - one where you can sit it vertically on a table or counter, and a flat surface mount which can mount to the back of some monitors. It also has a plug-in cable going from it to the wa... Read More
Msi's i3-12100 is a 4 core, 4c/8t desktop cpu. Can run linux at up to 64 gb/s and can be upgraded to a i5 12700.
Intel has made some real strides in getting their graphics on par with nvidia and amd's offerings, and i'm favorably impressed. See my demo video for genshin impact at 1080p lowest setting.
It's a snug fit, but not anything that's hard to do. I like the fact that it has a full sized fan and that fan is pretty much silent. If you have this on top of your desk in a very quiet room you can kind of hear the coils doing their thing.

Price
I ended up seeing this unit on sale and i have to say i've very happy with it.
Highly recommend if you need an affordable pc for kids and some light office work.
- price is not cheap but given the performance, i consider it reasonable.
Fair price good basic performance, lots of ports.
Shipping
Msi was down on the day i was having this problem.
Within 5 minutes, customer service got back with me to let me know the cords were to attach additional drives, etc.
Packaging/appearance
If nothing else, the packaging allows for a thermal solution that's capable of handling a "normal" tdp desktop cpu.
I took a bunch of pictures of it inside and out as well as the package contents.
I was intimidated by the extra cords that came in the box so i put in a work order to ask about them.
Competitiveness
It seems intel has made some real strides in getting their graphics on par with nvidia and amd's offerings, and i'm favorably impressed!
The msi is different, though, meaning to handle the same problem, but with (theoretically) fewer tradeoffs.
Perhaps the ones with integrated radeon graphics will out-perform this, but without having one of those to compare, side-by-sid... Read More
