I bought a Topton computer on Aliexpress and wasted my money. It arrived with an abnormal heating defect and soon stopped working. I couldn't get technical assistance. A friend advised me to look for another brand.
So a non-fan version should not have a heating defect because it is meant to run Fanless. You can always buy the same computer on Amazon for a little more and return within 30 days in case it doesn't work, because yes you are taking chances ordering on Ali. However so far so good for me.
That was really a nice review! But I would buy the Almighty FU03 AMD Mini PC with a Ryzen 5 7540U which should be much faster and probably consumes much less power well. However, you are right, the TB4 of this fanless pc is very tempting as well!😉
Yeah you are right Ryzen would probably run quieter. However if didn't care about it being fanless, perhaps going with UM790 pro you could get most of the feature set and have a capable 780m graphics which this one doesn't have with the IRIS. However this one with the IRIS graphics is probably more optimized for Plex Emby and Jellyfin media servers which you might want to use it for. And again it might be a nice living room pc where you don't want to be disturbed by fan noise.
@@wisebuyreviews I understand that, but the Almighty FU03 AMD Mini PC is the successor to the fanless FU02 that you already tested. It does have a small fan on top of the case, but it is supposed to be extremely quiet and is probably not even needed for the Ryzen 5 7540U. The fan is probably only needed for the Ryzen 7 8845HS, which is also available. Nevertheless, the Ryzen 5 7540U should have significantly better performance than the I7 1365U, which is obviously also heavily throttled in this fanless PC, at least that's what its Cinebench values suggest.
the reason you cant get in to the bios i think my friend is you set the time delay for the bios to kick in for 1 second theres not enough time for you to activate it alter the time to 5 seconds then there is more time for the bios to run.
At least they are making the PC other makers don't put out, the whole fanless idea. Yes you can can get a Noctua NH-P1 fanless cooler and build a whole tower which I did, however to make it sip power like wit this chip you can't do that running a graphics card, the PC I have with 3700x takes minimum 80-90 watts base. So as a server it's kind of nice. It was an exploration just the same way you would have to do it.
Could you please install and test osb-studio in a Linux distro (such as ubuntu 2404) and let me know if you can stream 1080p@60 FPS with hardware encoding (QuickSync H.264/H.265)? Thx!
No I won't do that as I don't know if that is the use case that people are looking to do and wouldn't make a video that is too interesting in my opinion. Why not buy this PC and test it out, perhaps on Amazon and return it if it doesn't function as intended and have imperfect encoding, or if it does, keep it. Likely similar pricing, with Ali often times beating Amazon as that is where I ordered. Thanks for the great question!
Thanks for the forecast! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

I agree, Topton computers are not of good quality. I had the same problem too.

Got to look into it thanks for the tip. Hope it works.

Why does everyone ask the same question, are you spammer?
