Built different than SER5
I have bought a lot of the SER5 models to replace aging desktops at work. They have been fantastic, so when I needed a system with multiple ethernet ports, I didn't look any further than Beelink.I recently had a port failure on my Ubiquiti USG and decided I wanted to go a bit more robust on the firewall side and wanted to get a system I could easily run OPNsense on it. This was the one that stuck out the most... dual ethernet, really good processor for what it will be running on it and more than enough ram.After taking apart some of the SER5s to add 2.5 drives, I figured I would encounter a similar ease of access and upgradability with the EGR5. This definitely has a different build/layout than the much simpler SER5... starting with the rubber pads covering the screw holes to all the screws,.one bolt and an IO board that you need to remove just to remove the primary SSD. The SSD included here would be my only real complaint because it is the cheapest looking m.2 SSD I have ever seen... so much so that I initially thought it was just a blank piece of silicon put in as a place holder. I swapped it out with an old Evo 970 that wasn't in use in the off case that this wouldn't have worked for my needs, and I would have needed to return it... that way the factory drive would be left untouched and unbooted.Also worth noting that unlike the SER5s, the EQR5 has an internal power supply instead of the typical wall wart power supply most mini PCs come with. That might be a reason for concern later on in case there is a power failure and it won't be as easy to replace as the wall warts like with the SER5s.So far, this thing is doing exactly what I wanted it to do.

Fast Workstation PC
I recently bought this SER5 when it was <$250 after coupons. At that price, this is a very good little mini PC. It is an upgrade from a 3 year old Terryza (no longer offered on Amazon) with a J4125 CPU. That PC worked fine until a few months ago when our internet seemed to slow considerably on only that PC, and not several other PCs in the house. It turns out that was a faulty 5-port unmanaged switch at the PC, but I used the internet issue to justify an upgrade. I paid about $186 for that Terryza in 2020 and about $70 more for this one. The difference is amazing. The Terryza served us well for Office, internet browsing, YouTube streaming, Spotify streaming, etc. We don't play games on any computer, so that was never an issue. This new Beelink is so much faster, it's pretty amazing. I use Novabench to benchmark my PCs, and went from a combine score of ~775 to 1,776. Sure my main photo editing PC hits just over 5,000, but for day-to-day tasks I can't tell the difference.FYI: The Novabench graphics test resulted in 14 FPS on the Beelink vs. 4 FPS on the older Terryza.There is virtually no fan noise at all. I have to put my ear to the PC to hear the fan and cannot hear anything with it mounted behind my monitor. I did have to buy a new monitor (I got the ~$100 Sceptre F24 - very nice) because my old cheap 22" Acer had neither HDMI nor DP and this Beelink does not have VGA. Oh well, the new monitor is also a very nice upgrade in our kitchen over the old Acer.The PC does produce some heat, but not a lot. I did notice that a flashdrive I had to use that had an older Adobe Acrobat Pro that I wanted to re-install from the Terryza got very hot after transferring only 725 MB of install files. That's probably more a problem with the flashdrive than the USB port, but I have yet to investigate.The PC I received had absolutely no bloatware that I could find (searching programs, services, start-up files, uninstall apps, and going through the Program Files and Program Files (x86) folders). If they stuck something in there, I can't find it.Overall, we are very happy with this $250 mini PC. Only time will tell if it will hold up, but for the time being it's quite, small, fast and seems to have a clean OS. It's not a gamer, but it is a very powerful unobtrusive little workstation PC.

Will buy another later
I bought this for myself to game with, I can play Skyrim on ultra high settings and mods, but I don't do much with the atmospheric mods, mostly with gameplay to make things easier, like lanterns and permanent bound weapons. I also play stardew valley, minecraft, World of warcraft, final fantasy 14 and lots of other games. they are not the most intensive but they still require a decent amount and run well. my only complaint is hard drive space but since i play throught Steam, I can uninstall games to make room for other things and not lose data, so that is not a big deal either. I love that i have the option to mount it to the back of a monitor if I wanted to. I actually bought my daughter one very similar to this for christmas this year and she already loves it. I'm trying to talk my husband into getting one bc the price is so good for what you get. definitely recommend if you are super tight on budget but want a new computer to game with and are a casual gamer.

Great for moderate gamers
Fast, quiet, can run WolfQuest and all kinds of other games on decent graphics. I use Substance Painter and Blender on this PC too, but don’t expect it to render big Blender projects quickly. Lately has issues with WiFi connection at random times when the WiFi works for other devices during those times.
