Consumer review (newegg.com)

Great to a point

Bought 4 of these to do Powerpoint video directories in our building lobbies. Now 4 months out 2 have had to be wiped and reloaded due to data corruption, cannot say for sure if it was heat or hard drives but a 3rd on Crashed and burnt hard. CPU temp...

Great price, Nice selection of ports & connections, Quick to put into service

Fan runs loud in standard mode and in auto the system runs hot

Great but with some minor annoyances

Make sure your monitor either has an HDMI port or a Display port. If not, order an HDMI to DVI cable with this order so you don't have to wait another few days for it to come. The quality control or quality of hardware used seems a little questionable...

It's a capable machine, as long as you know what you're going to use before your purchase. I like the small sized package, the E-SATA, USB3 and built in wifi. It's a great value at such a low price

I bought two and the first one's CPU fan died after a week of use and was overheating. Replaced with another from newegg. All the clip tabs will snap off now matter what you try to do. I've tried not to break them on the 2nd and 3rd one and they broke...

Mostly great, somewhat disappointing

Mine shipped with the original firmware (Feb. 2012) which had a number of problems (fan speed, USB3.0, power settings). I loaded the latest firmware (6/18/12) and then putting the system into suspend mode from OpenElec/XBMC caused it to brick. It would...

Small size ; Upgradable ; Fast enough for HTPC ; Cheap ; CPU can run very hot (100C) so fans can be run slowly ; I bought this for a dedicated XMBC frontend (via OpenElec) and for the most part, it's great for that. 1GbE network connection gives it...

Shipped with old bios ; Electrical sparks when plugging the system in ; Audio output is on the front of the unit, makes for a messy look in my entertainment system ; Can't boot from USB 3.0 (not very surprising) ; Fans can be noisy. Need latest bios or...

A++ I Love it

The Bluetooth is the biggest problem/headache. diaplaypurt will display astonishingly high resolution. I Highly recommend this computer. I bought a foxconn A3700 at the same time. This thing is DOUBLE as fast thanks to SATA6Gb/s & 8GB RAM support.

This mini PC is an amazing performer. Its Celeron Chip, HD graphics, SATA 6Gb/s work spectacularly well together. I was amazed with how well this thing performs. I put a G.Skill 8GB DDR3 1333 RAM chip in there along with an OCZ vertex 4 with the latest...

The "Bluetooth Drivers" that come on the CD do not work. It has an Intel Centrino 130 with integrated Bluetooth as the wireless card. It's a royal pain to get the thing to work without buying 3rd party drivers. The ones included with the computer are...
