Beelink SER5 MAX Mini PC, AMD Ryzen 7 6800U(8C/16T, up to 4.7GHz), 24GB LPDDR5 500GB NVME SSD, SER5 Mini Computer Support 4K@144Hz, Triple Display, HDMI+DP, WiFi6, BT5.2, Type-C

Out of the box, simple to set up. I printed a lot of REDDIT information explaining how to work around setup issues - but did not need any of it. Plugged it in, fired it up and followed the prompts. No challenges whatsoever. Purchased to use to rip my extensive DVD collection for posting on my personal PLEX server. It has a very capable processor, reasonable video GPU and excellent connectivity. I plugged in 4 USB DVD drives and was successful in quickly, repeatedly ripping 4 DVDs concurrently with hardware acceleration. I now have ready access to my extensive DVD library and the disks can be safely placed in storage in case of future need (or proof of licensing). The PC is delightfully small, fast to boot, supports dual monitors, has great memory and comes with Windows 11 Pro. It has been running cool and quiet. After a month of heavy use, I can recommend it.

Quick shipment. Only a few things to plug in. Stared right up. Seems fast. Wireless networking was easy to configure and seems stable and consistent. OS functions as-advertised. Great looking little PC gives the impression it was pricier than it was… when you even see it. Form factors as SO small now, it’s wonderful. Quiet fan even when pushed hard.

This was a great upgrade to my eleven year desk top set up. Windows 11 had two programs installed in addition to a windows and was mostly a clean installation of windows compared to other OEM's. After ensuring the windows partition worked, I did install Fedora Linux and had zero issues with the bios in dual booting both operating systems. The computer itself is extremely quiet and cool when running some light gaming on Steam, with great graphics quality for a small desktop without a dedicated graphics cards. Build quality is solid, doesn't use a ton of power or space, and looks nice. Unless you are into high end gaming, video editing 4k, or running local AI models, this more than enough computing power at a great price.

Excellent computer with known design flaws. Knocks my gaming tower out of the ballpark. Had trouble updating Windows, so I put Fedora Linux and it works beautifully. It is very quiet as long as you're not sitting immediately in front of it. It could use more USB 4 ports. Haven't tried Bluetooth. Known issues: poor Wi-Fi range (mine isn't terrible), surprisingly slow front USB-C port)

I wish I had not bought this in Dec 2024. First, it is a nice little computer. Fast, very quiet and small. I like that. BUT, the radio components in this thing are Garbage! It is located 4 feet closer to my WiFi router than my old system, an Acer desktop unit. My old box had a 90%+ signal strength. This thing does 35% or lower! I ended up buying an external WiFi-to-ethernet bos and connected and RJ-45 cable. The Bluetooth is equally weak. With my old system, I could go to my kitchenette (30 feet with 3 walls between) and still listen to my headphones. With this box, if I get 4 feet away, I start loosing signal and end up dropping the connection. So I went back to my old Acer box after doing some upgrades to it, stripped some components from the Beelink and the rest went in the trash.
