Review: Great little system, just ok accessories - My system came pretty well cleaned. It had something oily on part of the top, but that wiped off, though some had gotten into the dust screen so that had to be removed to clean. There were no scratches on the system, and everything seems in good working order. As most other reviews have mentioned, mine came with the Ryzen pro 5 2400g, which is a 65W part, vs. the 2400ge which is 35W TDP but lower clocked. The top is covered in mesh for better airflow, probably because the 2400g does get hot in this little machine. Running a stress test, I was able to get it up to 93C but the cooling system, in a room at 68F, was able to keep it there so it never throttled (which it should do if it gets to 95C) and maintained just under 3.6ghz on all 4 cores (the base clock). Stressing a single core, it will go up to 3.9ghz, so it could be that others who were having issues with performance might have some problem with their system. It came with 8GB of SK hynix DDR4 2666mhz RAM and a 256GB (older) Samsung PCI-E SSD. I got the SATA drive cage as well, which does have a fan for both its drive and the PCI-E drive that sits under the fan. I actually had a 16GB DDR4 3200mhz RAM set not being used, so I put that in and the system sees it as 2933mhz, which is the maximum RAM frequency supported for this CPU without overclocking, which this system does not do. So, I'd recommend at least picking up a second stick to get the benefits of dual channel which is supported, but if you buy all new RAM, I'd recommend picking up the faster stuff as well as it'll handle it. My system came with the HDMI module so it has 1 HDMI and 2 display ports. Accessories were a very generic USB wired keyboard, a very generic USB wired mouse, a mini USB wireless dongle and a mini USB bluetooth dongle. You can put a PCI-E wireless/bluetooth module in this system, so that might be a better option. Keep in mind that this system has antenna for the PCI-E wireless/bluetooth module, but does not come with the module, and you will most likely (I had to, someone else mentioned this as well) have to remove the motherboard to get to the antenna wires, as they seem to have been tucked underneath. To remove the motherboard, you have 4 screws plus the 3 that hold the heatsink onto the CPU. The problem here is that you shouldn't remove the heatsink without cleaning and reapplying thermal paste, so you basically will have to rebuild the system to install the wireless module properly. The power adapter this comes with has been mentioned at least once before. Mine was not a HP OEM power brick, but a generic one. It had the right barrel connector, but it's a 90W 19V 4.7A adapter. It appears the OEM adapter should be a 19.5V 4.62A, but finding the OEM 90W adapter is tough unless you want to spend a lot. My system does immediately power on when plugged in as others have mentioned, but you can turn it off and it will stay off, and seems to run ok on the generic adapter. One thing I think someone else mentioned, but the first generation Zen processors (Ryzen 1000 and 2000 series) are not on the Windows 11 supported CPU list, and you will be blocked from upgrading to Windows 11 on this machine. It does have TPM 2.0, so it's just the CPU that is blocking you. Microsoft does have instructions for getting around this, by entering a registry entry to tell the installer to allow unsupported CPUs, but Windows updates still will not let you upgrade directly. You'll need to download the installer/updater from Microsoft then run that. It does appear that upgrading from the installer works, though people were originally saying you would have to install fresh. Anyway, doing this, you have to agree that you are fine with possible issues and lack of driver support, so do it at your own risk I guess.
Review: Ultimate 100$ PC for child, TV multimedia or homelab node. - Good packaging, should survive most "experienced" desertcart delivery driver. Arrived cleaned, not a single mark of dust, fresh CR2023 battery with good voltage. Thermal paste also seems fresh but (!) heatsink had a big empty spot in the center of the chip, good that I decided to re-check it before putting as a home lab node in some place with hard access. Looks like thermal pads for CPU power lines were refreshed as well but for me they appeared to be too sticky and kind of low quality so they were replaced with some spare cuts I had. Provided m2 SSD is fine and had around 93% of health. Device was quipped with two identical sticks of 4gb Samsung M471A5244CBO-CRC. After re-paste I performed couple of stress tests to check that cooling system is working properly, wasn't able to make it hotter than 78C and CPU boosted for max of almost (!) 3.9GHz with effective clock around 3.7GHz. Included keyboard is meh, mouse is terrible but better than nothing I guess (?). Also I got WIFI5 dongle, also better to have one for spare parts. Didn't have a chance to test SATA slot, but it was clean and have dedicated fan for your 2.5SSD or HDD and overall unit cooling. Had some troubles with BIOS update, default HP tool could not flash USB drive with latest firmware but after connecting Ethernet I just clicked "download from hp site" and it got it with no problem and installed via internet. I was surprised how easy and convenient it was lol. Conclusion: seems to be a good choice for some cheap home PC and especially cheap and almost energy efficient home lab node. Plan to buy more of these puppies in the future.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I there an empty ram slot in the unit? could you add 8 gb more to the ram?**
A: Upgrading the ram was easy.   There is a fan on the motherboard that swivels up (no screws)  and there are two ram slots under it.    I upgraded mine with two 16gb modules (32gb total)   The graphics are actually pretty decent too!   I tried it with Secondlife/OpenSim  and it is more than adequate.  It's a pretty nice little macine. :)

**Q: Does the type-c port have display support?**
A: Sorry this does not

**Q: ac cable is included?**
A: yes...came with original hp power supply

**Q: Could you upgrade the cpu to something like a amd ryzen™ 5 4600g?**
A: The 4600G will fit the AM4 socket in this machine, but the motherboard is AMD B350 FCH and might not support it. As others suggest, perhaps flash the BIOS to the latest and give it a try. But knowing HP they won't publish a beta to support the newer chip since this isn't an "enthusiast" platform.

The 2400G is Raven Ridge core while the 4600G is Renoir core. I had this same problem on an MSI motherboard...tried replacing the 2400G with a 5700G but MSI hadn't upgraded the BIOS to support Cezanne core. So I had to get a newer motherboard.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice
*by B***N on January 24, 2023*

I've been wanting to upgrade my Lenovo intel i7 ThinkCentre Mini PC to a newer Ryzen Mini for a while and this Refurb deal from StallionTek looked too good to be true . When it arrived I noticed right away that one of the back USB ports was clearly broken with the pins touching each other . I nearly sent it back right there , but they were out of stock and I couldn't set up a replacement so I decided that if there no other problems that I'd keep it . I separated the pins in the bad USB and put some electrical tape in it to keep it from shorting out and powered the PC on . It fired right up and wanted to update Windows so I went ahead and updated everything and checked the system specs to find that it was the same as most people reportedly received . A Ryzen 2400g , 256gb NVME SSD , 1x 8gb memory stick , an HDMI in the optional port , and has the HDD caddy for a SATA HDD as well which is great because I wanted to add a second HDD for storage . It does not have a wireless card in it , but it does have the antennas and an empty M.2 for one . The PC is fast and seems to be a happy little PC . I wanted to install a wireless card and put some Thermal Grizzly thermal paste on the processor so I had to completely disassemble the PC to get the antennae wires out from under the motherboard and got a good look at everything in the process . This thing is really clean inside , no dust at all . It already had brand new thermal paste on the APU which is really good to see . So as far as the refurb I would give it an 8 out of 10 , the bad USB port is the only thing that I can complain about , it really shouldn't have shipped like that . So close to perfect . With a few more upgrades it'll be a little beast . I have 32gb of DDR4 coming and will add a 2TB NVME in place of the 256gb and will end up adding a storage HDD sometime in the future as well . I assume that I just had bad luck with the USB port so I will recommend this product , it's great . **Edit - Installed the m.2 wireless and it works really well (Intel model# 9260NGW) Installed 2x 16gb (32gb total) G.Skill Ripjaws 2666 memory with no problems Installed 2TB Kingston NVME SSD and cloned the HDD to it with no problems Installed 2TB 2.5 SATA Seagate Barracuda HDD This mini is certainly a step up from my old one , love it .
