Questions & Answers

How can I lower the fan noise on my system, which is constantly spinning even though it is essentially idle?

If you need to lower the fan speed, send us the barcode on the bottom of the machine as well as the bios homepage (press delete to enter the bios when starting up) and we'll send you the necessary tutorial files. br>Anna, I eagerly await your letter.

So, there are conflicting reports on whether or not this USB-C has thunderbolt. ?

It is equipped with USB ports. c, the ability to send and receive data charges

Will this be useful in the editing process?

I'm not an expert, but I believe it could be useful for some editing tasks. It has a powerful processor, plenty of RAM, and a quick hard drive. Windows 11 is a simple operating system that runs quickly. 10 too. It's perfect for my job as a teacher.

Is it possible to upgrade the graphics card so that virtual reality gaming can be played?

It has thunderbolt 3 so you can get an external GPU enclosure and put the GPU of your choice in it, but there are some drawbacks: you'll need to buy a GPU enclosure, which costs around $300, as well as the GPU, and it will hold back higher end cards; my 2070 super was held back quite a bit, but it still performed well in games; however, once I put it in a Ryzen 5 system, I saw a huge fps boost.

What a great little PC! I'm the IT guy for the company, and I'm responsible for 50 users spread across multiple locations
5/5

I've been replacing old office PCs with small footprint mini PCs for the past two years, including all the big names like Dell, HP, and Intel, and these Beelink have been by far the easiest to set up and configure. The best part is that they don't come with any bloatware or proprietary BS apps that take a long time to uninstall.

I bought this mini pc to run two monitors and hide it, and it performs admirably for the size and price
5/5

It attaches to the back of any compatible monitor (using the included bracket). It has enough processing power for browsing the internet and watching videos, and it comes with Windows 10 and no bloatware. Things were up and running in no time after connecting a wireless keyboard with integrated touchpad, monitors, and installing an hour of Windows updates. From behind the 30 inch Dell monitor, the built-in fan was nearly undetectable. This small box includes four standard USB "A" 3. 0 ports. There are no ports and a USB C port, as well as two HDMI and an ethernet port (see description). It also comes with a built-in M. 2 drive, with an extra SATA drive port that I used to add a Samsung EVO 512 GB SATA drive and copy the internal M. 2 drive onto the new Samsung drive for backup and additional storage (using the Samsung Magician software), and the Samsung fits perfectly INSIDE the PC case. NICE WORK. If you're looking for a "cheap" Windows 10 PC that can handle two monitors, the internet, video playback, and some light online gaming, this is the PC for you. As far as I'm concerned, this small computer is ideal.

Do not buy anything from this seller because it will arrive broken and the seller will not replace it with the same product
3/5

This isn't a genuine product. I looked up my model number on the Beelinks website, but it was not there. I ordered one from this seller, but it arrived with a broken ethernet port, so I had to replace it. And, upon closer inspection, the replacement they sent me has a broken HDMI port. The nvme was a no-name brand, and the worst part was that there was only one 16GB ram card, despite the fact that the product advertised dual channel 16GB ram on two 8GB ram sticks. And it was in this manner that the first one I ordered arrived. Not only that, but the first one I bought has a crooked bottom. Worst of all, after receiving two broken computers, the seller will not allow me to replace it. But, after this experience, I'm not sure I'll order from this seller again.

It's a little early for this review
4/5

I'm only leaving this review so that I can post a picture of the answer to my original query. br>br>How do I install a SATA drive on this computer? I noticed that you can add one, but I couldn't figure out where to put it. So, if you're wondering the same thing, take a look at the image I've attached. br>br>Aside from that, I've done some software configurations and installations, and it appears to be a typical i5 system so far. One user mentioned fan noise, which is similar to the fan noise heard on many laptops. I'm setting this up for a client and was planning on mounting it behind their monitor, but due to the fan, I'm thinking I'll have to hide it somewhere else in their desk.

This is a fantastic little box
5/5

It's a powerful tool that's also simple to install. This small box has left a lasting impression on me. It uses the 8279 processor rather than the 8259. It is quite quick to start up. When you first get it and turn it on, it immediately launches into the Windows 10 setup, which takes only a few minutes. My high-speed internet connection is not as good as the wifi here. They're both equidistant from the antenna on a high-end gaming PC. I use this in my home office to quickly access the internet, check email, and so on. I don't plan to run anything intensive on it, but minor tasks in Photoshop, for example, run quickly, so performance appears to be adequate. This is an excellent deal for the price I paid. This book comes highly recommended.

Take this positive review with a grain of salt because I bought this computer to replace a Mac laptop so I could work from home
5/5

I love that it has four USB ports and two HDMI, which a lot of these small PCs don't have, as well as a USB C port (and other ports that I don't use so I won't list them here). br>br>I've been using it for about a week now, and everything looks great. It's lightning fast, especially if you've got a good internet connection. I'm a 31-year-old accountant, so I'm not doing a lot of data-intensive work, but I'm able to switch between two screens, multiple webpages, file explorer and Adobe Pro, and Zoom with an external webcam and speakers without any hiccups. What's even better is that there's no bloatware that comes pre-installed that you don't need. Just for that, I'd give it five stars. Tempted to dock one star because I've had to restart a few times, but I believe that's due to my roommate using up the majority of the internet. I'd also deduct a star for the extremely short power cord (approximately 4 feet). br>br>I'll update if I find myself having to restart frequently, but in the end, this has been a lifesaver at a great price and with a small footprint (I keep mine on my desk). br>br>UPDATE: br>br> I did have to restart my computer several times on the same day that I wrote this. The file explorer is stuck in a halting state. My computer can't seem to handle the Spotify web player while I'm trying to finish my work. A NEW UPDATE: br>br> The freezing suddenly stopped a few days after the last update, and it's been working flawlessly since then. In addition, the customer service is outstanding.

Little computer that is easy to use and fast
4/5

Installing it was a breeze. In less than half an hour, you'll be up and running. Windows always forces you to reboot a dozen times to get set up, but not installing the OS, drivers, patches, and other software saves a lot of time; all you need are the Zoom and printer drivers! It's not a gamer's box, and it's not completely silent, but it's perfect for video and teleconferences.
