Mini PC Madness! - Minisforum UM890 Pro

Grab yourself a Pint Glass at https://craftcomputing.store I spent the better part of 15 years as an IT Manager, and a large portion of that job was designing and maintaining PCs for clients. I was recently asked to spec out a set of five workstations for a CAD/3D Printing Makerspace. And while it's even my gut instinct to build a tower PC with a discrete graphics card, AMD's Mobile APUs have eliminated the need for full desktops in most use cases. Rather than full towers, today I'm putting together five Mini PCs from Minisforum in the UM890 Pro. They're the perfect combination of performance, power requirements and price for my client, and they might make a great option if you're looking for similar use cases. *Links to items below may be affiliate links for which I may be compensated* Check out the Minisforum UM890 Pro on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4h4AEMq Teamgroup Elite SODIMM 2x16GB DDR5-5600: https://amzn.to/40djLsc Silicon Power 1TB UD90 Gen4x4 NVMe: https://amzn.to/4fWXsww *Note, I mentioned drive performance in the video at 7,000 MB/s.
