MINISFORUM HM80 Mini PC AMD Ryzen 7 4800U Desktop Computer, DDR4 32G RAM+512G SSD, HDMI/DP/USB-C 4K@60Hz Output, 2X RJ45 Port(1000/2500Mbps), 6X USB Port, WIFI6 AX200, AMD Radeon Graphics, 2X HDD Slot

This little pc is a beast at 1080p. Very happy with my purchase. It shipped fast and was well packaged.

I bought a few of these for a homelab Kubernetes cluster. The base unit is nice. I had to upgrade the RAM and replace the tiny NVMe they come with with large unit. Ubuntu 22.04.1 works great with the included 2.5Gib Intel i225v (Gen 3) network card.

AMD does support thunderbolt but minisforum doesnt support it with their drivers or BIOS. USB4 support is lacking as well.

This mini PC packs a strong punch for such a small device. It’s amazing that it was not that long ago that a computer with this kinds of specs would only come in a large heavy tower. This little guy is barely the size of a mousepad. It comes with Windows 10 already installed, and once I put in my existing Microsoft account information, my computer was almost set up. I have two monitors connected, and there were enough inputs to allow me to do that. I did plug in a USB extender so that I could add a wireless mouse and keyboard and things like that. These are inexpensive, likely unnecessary, but only $15-$20 extra if you need one, and if you do they work really well with this machine.

In order to get the maximum out of Vega 10 integrated graphics the unit must run on 35W TDP and 3600MHz RAM.

I ordered two and one is a dream and works great…. Other one keeps freezing and restarting its self. Gave 3 stars due to the 50/50 of them working 100%

Its pretty phenomenal what your getting here in such a small form factor and for the price. An 8 core processor with 16 threads that can reach 4.2 GHz and only use 15 watts? As to how AMD accomplished that is beyond me. 16 Gigs of ddr4 memory and a 500gb m2 drive. Plus they threw in Windows 11 pro ($130 value) if you were to piece something like this together, good luck trying to beat this price!

Pros:

In the past I used high end gaming laptops, for my stock trading, as they could handle multiple monitors. This MINISFORUM caught my eye as it could display up to 4 monitors. So far only using this with 2 monitors, trading platform, microsoft office, and video conversion tools. Its been up and running for a month now, and hasnt disappointed me yet. If you need many USB ports, I suggest getting a USB hub to attach to this small unit. It doesnt take long to fill up those USB ports! (wireless mouse dongle, wireless keyboard dongle, headset, microphone, USB storage device, USB stick, etc.)

Smaller than my Blu-ray player. Works out of the box with Windows, and Linux ( running Fedora ). Would even be well suited for a general purpose PC. Not for the hardcore gamer, but can do games at 720p - 1080p low settings.
