Beelink SER3 Mini PC, AMD Ryzen 5 3500U, 16GB DDR4 RAM 500GB PCle3.0 SSD

So good, I've purchased 3 Beelink computers so far. Small footprint, attaches to the back of my monitor, out of the way. What's not to like about a great deal and stellar performance?

So far this has been a wondeful liitle PC its very quiet and takes up very little space I bought it to replace a old windows 7 laptop which is about as upgrade as it can be but still struggles. This Beelink can be upgraded with more ram and another SSD.About my only complaint is the USB ports protruding from both the front ands back as looks like a porcupine with all the slots load I see a Docking Hub in its future. So on the gameing I havnt tried anything taxing its currently being used to run RPCS3 and it runs that much faster than the console.

I have owned my Beelink SER5 Ryzen 7 5700u (8 cores, 16 threads) for about three weeks. It is powerful, quiet, and versatile personal computer. I have used it as an HTPC for my home and in my camping trailer. I'm currently using it in my office. The 5700u CPU has a built in decoder for VP9, but not AV1. AV1 videos (8K) cause the processors to go to work decoding as expected. Browsing the web, watching videos, the processor workload runs about 5% and is reporting 46 Celsius (accuracy ?)with a fan speed of about 2400 rpm (near silent). Very little heat is felt out the back. The 5700u, even so it is the older Zen 2 architecture, is great. The TDP is only 15 watts. I have added a Samsung 1TB SSD drive. Compressing large backup files - decent performance. I don't care for Windows 11 so tried a few Linux distributions. Mint 21 had issues with the WiFi and Bluetooth. Wifi and Bluetooth (BT) card is reporting that it is an Intel AX200 chip. Linux doesn't have problems with these. The issue is a random conflict - non-assignment of an address (IDK). I'm successfully running Kubuntu 23.10. The front audio jack is working. I run dual monitors. Have tried all combination of these - HDMI, DP, and USB-C. Kubuntu grabs BT speaker at boot. Have not tried BT keyboard or mouse. We have a Mac Mini and Intel Nuc i5 (Kaby Lake). This doesn't have that quality feel. The plastic case, rear USB ports are not quite lined up correctly. I worry about the longevity of the internal fan. But, for it's price, if it lasts, it is a value. It ran windows 11 well while I was testing it. I have not tried to use customer service.

I bought this because the specs checked out for handling hooking up my quest to it to play PCVR games. Nope. I mean, it kinda works, but unless playing games at 1 FPS is your thing you're going to be disappointed if you bought it for this purpose.

I have purchased a few of these with the slightly slower and lower power 5700U CPU and not this one as I couldn't find the 5700u variant at the time of purchase. I use them for general purpose office PCs and 'registers' to cash out customers for my clients that operate retail businesses. Though the 5800H is a little faster its really not noticeable vs. the 5700U, especially for office type tasks and web browsing. I much prefer the 5700U as its rated at 15W vs. 45W for this 5800H and I prefer 5700u lower power and thus less heat to disperse in the very small chassis but we shall see how this 5800H holds up over time.

worked well.

This purchase is my first mini pc purchase so it's not easy to rate it. That said it's much faster than any pc that I have owned to date. The setup was very easy. The build quality appears to be very good. I have nothing but positive comments to give this mini.

Worked far better than I had hoped for a year and then it became a brick. So do not buy and maybe don't buy beelink.
