I purchased this GMKtec Mini PC from Amazon 6 months ago and have used it daily ever since then. It has worked flawlessly. It replaced a nine year old HP desktop computer.

The cooling fan for the CPU is very quiet even under normal load. Under very heavy load, there is a small amount of white noise.

To increase the number of available USB ports, I added an JESWO 11-Port Powered USB Hub with individual LED on/off switches and 12V/3A power adapter.

This mini PC (aka, Nucbox K8) is small enough that I can put it anywhere. And, it comes with a bracket to mount it under a TV or in back of a monitor. The 32GB of RAM is plenty for streaming, photo/video editing, and advanced office use. It feels well made and boots very fast. It has no issues streaming videos on my 4K monitor. I bought the extended warranty – most likely it will never be used. I’d definitely recommend the GMKtec Gaming Mini PC to a friend.
