A sizeable portion of PC enthusiasts prefer SFF and mini PCs over traditional towers. The Minisforum UM790 Pro is one such system that packs the powerful Ryzen 9 7940HS APU, offering commendable performance as well as value, courtesy of an ongoing sale on Amazon.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Minisforum-UM790-Pro-mini-PC-with-Ryzen-9-7940HS-and-Radeon-780M-discounted-to-lowest-price-ever-on-Amazon.964714.0.html
I'm sorry but it is almost comical how NBC frames their comments on hardware depending on the assumed target audience. Case in point:
"the RDNA 3-based Radeon 780M iGPU, while no match for a discrete GPU, packs sufficient grunt for occasional lightweight gaming sessions and non-intensive workloads"
However that SAME iGPU (and others like it) seem to take on almost heroic abilities when found in supposed portable & handheld gaming systems.
The as shown and quite possibly the 'bare bones' UM790 systems would be a good fit for living room 'multimedia PC's'. Grab one of these devices (along with its power brick) and a game pad controller and head out to anywhere that might already have an existing screen to use and you have a 'portable' work/gaming station.
I've been using of these as my homelab - with 96GB RAM, running a bunch of VMs and containers. Plenty of grunt to deal with anything I throw at it, whilst sipping minimal power.
