Great flexible mini pc at an affordable price!

So far I'm very happy with my choice of this computer! It started up and was up and running quickly with pre-installed Windows 10 Pro. The PC is very quiet - practically silent most of the time; Even though it sits next to the monitor on my desk, I don't hear any noise other than *very* little noise when it briefly boosts the fan speed under heavy loads. The case has plenty of vents and seems to stay cool; The case never feels warm and the temperature monitoring software I use shows that the SSD and CPU temperatures remain under control. Everyday performance seems great; Applications and programs, even browsers with many tabs, open and close quickly. The 8GB of RAM is a handy resource for most people's everyday PC needs, but this model has 2 memory slots and is expandable up to 16GB, which was a plus for me. The Intel 6100 graphics seems to work well and the PC offers 3 different display out port options and supports multiple monitors so it's a flexible and pretty solid device for the price. I would like to have another USB 3 port instead of two ethernet ports (there are only 3 of them) but of course that wasn't a deciding factor for me! It's great that this PC has a built in micro SD card slot so I don't have to resort to external memory card readers! In general, this PC is an excellent choice for those who need a compact, flexible, powerful, expandable general purpose or home media computer that is value for money.
