    Great little PC for gaming (275 CPU)

    This is a great little PC for gaming and in 2026, a very good price for what you get. I put my low profile RTX 5060 in it and it's a perfect fit. brI have a couple complaints which is why I gave 4 stars not 5:br- for as high end of a CPU / PCI bus this runs the memory at 4800 MT/s, but the memory is rated for 5600 MT/s - why not support this on the motherboard?br- I got the 32 GB version and expected it would have 2x16 GB, so I can add 2x16 more that I had - but it came with 1x32 - meaning I had to get into the front memory slots to put a 2nd chip in - which was a pain, and left me with 32 16 16 16 (80 GB). br- Sometimes I will get a black screen when I lock the PC - the windows key brings up the start menu, and alt-tab shows me all my windows, but if I run / select something it stays on the black screen. This might not be Minisforum's fault, maybe I need to reset Windows, but I don't want to go through the hassle, so usually I just don't lock my screen to avoid it.
