Was looking around at entry level computers for someone. This is a good deal. Surprisingly fast CPU for the money. Windows 7, 4GB memory, 500 GB hard drive. Generation 4 Pentium G3220 3.00 Ghz dual Haswell core Benchmark 3,228 which is up there with the first generation Core i7 I used to avoid APUs (Integrated CPU & Graphics) but the latest generation does pretty damn good. 54 Watts for both CPU & GPU. I doubt this thing has much heat stress in the mini-chasis. I’ve been going with mini’s quite often lately now that the wattage demands are more reasonable. Older mini desktops tended to overheat the capacitors after a few years.
