I asked before about Mini Desktop Computers

Since I am a bit stupid, concerning, what is good
and what is not good in computers, I would like
any, any computer, technically literate person to
look at the information below, and tell me if it is
worth trying, I am thinking about the Windows 11
Pro version, only because I know Windows, but
there are Linux versions and they also accommodate
Ubuntu.

Thank you.

Mike.

Mini PC's are no different from a full size desktop if the specs are the same. They all use onboard graphics, no dedicated graphics card for intense gaming.

I paid $135 for the exact same speced mini PC and it worked just fine. It was actually an overkill for mainstream desktop computing in Linux.

I gave it to my ex-wife and put Windows 11 back in and she loves it.

Should work great for email, office work, movies, youtube, average video and audio editing, photo editing, non triple A gaming.

It seems to handle overbloated Win11 ok, if you don't mind Microsoft spying on you ;)
 
Suitable for light everyday use, good specs on paper, but the N95 is a low-power processor and expectations should stay modest. Fine for browsing, email, and media, not for demanding tasks.
 

Efficient 3.4Ghz quad core with lots of cache. Plenty except for the most demanding tasks. The N95/N100 performed so well Intel cut it down to single channel memory so it wouldn't compete with so called "higher" power cpu's with more cores. They want everyone onboard with needing more than you actually need;) $$$

Thank you for the replies, I am past business activities,
so I only play, or purchase on a computer, sound like
this might fit, unfortunately I do like fast machines and
this might be slower, still it will be better than the one
that I am using, that keeps freezing, that nobody seems
to be able to pinpoint the cause, I think it is hardware, so
thank you again for your help.

Win11 is the latest and greatest resource hog from Microshaft. 12GB of RAM will do normal computing fine along with average multitasking.

If doing intense multitasking I'm sure more RAM would make a significant difference.
 
I had a look at the video on Amazon and I stopped
it occasionally when saw written information on a
part, there is a second slot for another SSD, I have
one, if I need the space, while looking around the
internet, other machines from the same factory do
have expansion slots for more memory, I hope that
this machine does too, they do say that the DDR5 is
far superior to the DDR4, which I have in this PC.

I will give you the details if it can be upgraded.

Unless your chasing framerates for the latest 3D games, doing intensive video editing or compiling huge amounts of data, you'll never notice the difference between DDR4 and DDR5.

The best way to optimize regular desktop performance is a fast SSD drive with a motherboard that can properly support it.

Choosing the optimal operating system can result in a very snappy experience, but that's a whole new can of worms.

Before buying a new PC it might be wise to simply reload the operating system first.
