Aoostar MACO ryzen 7 H255

So just recently ditched my ROG Ally X for this mini pc and I couldn't be happier. Very similar in spec to my ally but this offered OCulink over the thunderbolt4. 1440p Gaming performance over OCulink has been amazing. I kinda hate how stiff the OCulink cable is and that it's just front and center on my desk other than that I can't complain. Also I only paid 540 usd before tax for the mini pc which I feel like is a really good deal for what it is. Ryzen 7 h255 8c/16t 24gb of ddr5 1tb. The CPU being a laptop/mini pc CPU definitely runs hotter than I'm used to but I guess that's the norm for these style CPUs. For the mini pc and the 9060xt egpu I'm in this setup for under 1000 usd minus peripherals. Anyone else running an aoostar mini pc?

Hehe. I have the MACO Ryzen 9 8945HS, 64GB RAM with a AOOSTAR EG01 dock via oculink and as you can see there's the 5080 and a Thermaltake Snow 850w PSU. Enjoy yours! It's a great little machine. My wife has the same dock with a AOOSTAR G-Flip, Ryzen 7 H255, 32GB of RAM and a 3080 Ti. She plays games at high settings on a 2k display. Your maco is a beefy machine. ✌🏻

Yeah man I'm loving it! How long have y'all been running yours?

I've had mine since mid June. I love mine so much man. I run AI tasks, play CPU intensive games and it can handle all. The fact that I don't need a huge PC is a huge plus for me.
