Very happy with this mini desktop computer, performs all the functions I needed it for with ease. Easy to set up, light and compact making it easy to travel with. Runs very quiet and processes data fast. Recommended.

Normal windows performance is more than fast enough. The issue with these small computers is the graphics capability and what you expect of it. Normal powerful graphics units as can be found in desktops are huge and will not fit in small boxes so minicomputers like this rely on inbuilt graphics in the microprocessor. The main manufacturers (AMD and Intel) have their own ways of doing this. I get the impression that the AMD inbuilt graphics is better than the Intel system from reading many reviews in pc magazines. Also the AMD processors are less expensive for like for like processor performance. I have this minicomputer mounted on the back of a monitor giving me a portable reasonable performance desktop. This minicomputer does have the capability of connecting an external graphics card but this would require a cradle, a graphics system and a power supply and connector wires. In that case I would rather buy a conventional desktop. I am pleased with the system now have.

I bought this to replace my two-year-old Beelink pc, which had packed in. This pc came with 32gb of RAM, to which I added another 32 - now it goes like a rocket. Why manfacturers don't offer a 64gb option I don't know. I use my pc mainly for processing large photo files, occasionally applying A.I. filtering, so 32gb is just not powerful enough. The additiomal RAM (though increasing the cost) is essential for my requirements - but, I got there in the end. I heartily recommend this micro pc.

The media could not be loaded. It's developed a extremely bad electrical buzzing sound like a mosquito.... Had it about 8 days..... Been smooth sailing for about 3-4 days, first day it was just sat updating n downloading software. Randomly lost audio and controller support after gaming on it for 3 days... It kept updating maybe twice a day it would ask for windows restart so I just updated windows again restarted n fixed for now.... I'm a little disappointed on the GPU says it handles like a 1050ti but on some games it can't get 60fps at 1080p and they're not new games like beamNG drive or 7 days to die both are unplayable. Not tried any triple A recent games GTA runs decent on mixed settings It's like a PS4 sounds like a jet when loading stuff up and playing any game. Overall I'd say this isn't a gaming computer unless you plan on adding your own graphics card this is just a desktop as is. One day later windows has decided to go ape shiz n change everything I've setup so I'm debating sending it back because I can't get on with it.... Won't game can't even handle windows 11 n that's probably Microsoft's issue.

Edit update again 01/10/2025: I fixed my fan issue and as promised raised the score back up to 5 stars. It is a good, fast little computer but does get hot when you are gaming. I recommend popping the top off and exposing the top fan to the outside as this really helps in keeping it cool. When you put the top back on, when your finished, don't snap the top back in place so it will be easy for you to remove when needed. I know this would bother some people but I am not bothered by it as it helps keep it cool. Still five stars for what it can do for it's size. Still highly recommended. Edit up date 01/09/2025: I had to reduce the GMKtec M5 Plus from five stars to three stars because the little top cooling fan will not work all the time. I have the lid on but not snapped in because I have to take it off to force the fan to run. A quick spin with my fingers gets it going but I got to keep an eye on it other wise the little computer will over heat even though it's only fifteen watts. This is serious and the reason for only three stars. I am going to try to contact them and if they help I will improve the review back to five stars. *Next is another concern that has a lot of YouTube press and that is, Mini PC's shipping out with Malware or viruses. Let me make clear that GMKtec has been cleared so far and I tested mine forward and backwards with zero positives but you should be made aware of this. The most offending company (watch YouYube to get the companies name as it is all over) still has not completely cleaned their computers and are being very sneaky in the way they hide the Malware. One buyer replaced his M2 SSD and loaded a fresh copy of Windows 11. If you are one of those people who are sensitive to computer security then you need to know what you are getting into with Mini PC's. I didn't know this before I bought mine. Please check out the problem on YouTube before you buy. If you do buy, do not connect to the net till you have run a complete check. I recommend the very long but important Windows 11, full virus scan and download the free version of Malwear Bytes and run a test with that. I hope Amazon allows this review update to be printed as this is an important issue that everyone should be made aware of before they buy a mini PC. First off, it worked right out the box. Early setup could not have been any easier, a smart 8 year old could have set this mini computer up. That's not stretching it either. However setting up all the drivers from AMD and getting Windows 11 up to date did take time and requires someone a little more knowledgeable. I bought this as a novelty but now using it all the time. My big gaming computer has taken a back seat to this amazing little mini computer. Pros: Very quite, Very fast, Yes it plays games but more on the casual level. Beautiful eye popping monitor visuals, It uses only 15 watts of power. That means it runs very cool. The AMD processor the 5825U is designed to run on 15 watts. Cons: Terrible instructions with tiny print. Example, they send you a piece of black metal with some black screws that looks like it might be some sort of mounting bracket but the instructions give you zero information on what it is for. It uses only 15 watts of power. I know I had that as a pro but it could also be a con if you want to play more powerful AAA games. But who would use a mini computer to play AAA games like Cyber Punk 2077 or Hogwarts. Come on, use common sense. I will end this by saying do your research. Not all mini computers are only fifteen watts like this one. And if you look you will find the newest mini computers are AM5 platform and use up to 70 watts. But those units run from seven hundred and fiftly to almost a thousand dollars. You start spending that much money you might as well buy a full size gaming rig. Highly recommended

The media could not be loaded. This product replaced my work computer and allowed me to use it as a personal device. The product arrived neatly packaged with no damages. All items listed were present in the package. It was quick to setup and product was fully licensed and all specs matched the description. Device is nice and silent. End users have remarked they can hear me and see me clearly thanks to the computer. I’m throughly happy on all accounts. Only note for improvement would be to include built in speakers. Otherwise it’s fantastic.
