Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
-
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

I love these little machines. Personally I plan to use my mini PC as a media PC for me and my significant others TV when I move in.
Also, if you run servers that are configured using a web UI(this is a super niche use case) small and low power PC's like this are awesome to use as terminals/controllers. It's super niche and even I can admit there's not a ton of reasons to do it that way, but I've done it before and especially for specific network setups it can be super awesome.
Plex/Jellyfin setups are also good use cases since they require very little computing power.
