Minisforum has officially launched the recently unveiled AMD-based MS-A1 mini PC, with prices starting from $259 for the barebones version. Unlike the Intel-based MS-01, the MS-A1 rocks support for socketed desktop CPUs, and an OCuLink connector for fast eGPU connections. However, it misses out on 10 G networking, and instead settles for a single 2.5 G ethernet port despite an otherwise excellent selection of ports, which includes four M.2 2280 slots.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Minisforum-MS-A1-launched-with-support-for-up-to-Ryzen-9000-series-OCuLink-port-up-to-96-GB-of-memory.866197.0.html
This is basically a motherboard with a case, same like their oculink dock which is just a case for a direct pcie extension using oculink. They keep making their margins better and better with simplistic products sold as something wow
