Most Favorable Review

Better than I thought.

Yeston Radeon RX 550 2GB GDDR5 1071MHz 640processors PCIExpress 3.0 DirectX12 video cards Single Slot 4*HDMI compatible graphics card of Desktop
Yeston Radeon RX 550 2GB GDDR5 1071MHz 640processors PCIExpress 3.0 DirectX12 video cards Single Slot 4*HDMI compatible graphics card of Desktop

Pros: I was surprised how heavy it was out of the box. I was expecting a cheaper product. The outer casing is metal. Dead silent.

Cons: I think the fan runs at 1 speed. AMD drivers and GPU-Z say 0 RPM, but the fan is spinning. The card fluctuated around 80c but never throttled while running Furmark. I'm 99% sure the fan stayed at 1 speed the entire time.

Overall Review: Yeston appears to be a legit brand, just China only. Quality feels as good as the Gigabyte GT1030 in my HTPC. I bought this card because I needed HDMI 2.0b multi monitor output for my Work PC. Perfect for my use case. Did not test gaming. I believe this was made for those huge multi-monitor screens. Most of the advertising on the box is about the 4 HDMI outs, and it's part of the "pro" series. I'm hoping that means it's made to be stable and last.

Great for HTPC.

HP ProDesk 400 G5 Small Form Factor PC, Intel Six Core I5-8500 3.0Ghz, 16G DDR4, 1T SSD, DP, 4K Support, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, Keyboard & Mouse, Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit-Multi-Language(EN/ES/FR) (Grade A)

Pros: Fast, small size, and Windows 11 compatible.

Cons: The included KB&M while very clean, show signs of heavy use. The SSD is new, but it's really cheap. I wouldn't trust it with any data you don't want to lose.

Overall Review: Overall, it's a great PC. Webpages load instantly, and it has no problem playing 4K video. I was able to upgrade to Windows 11 for free. So I will be able to use it for years to come.

Great SATA SSD with Dram cache.

Silicon Power Ace A55 2.5" 2TB SATA III 3D TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SP002TBSS3A55S25
Silicon Power Ace A55 2.5" 2TB SATA III 3D TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SP002TBSS3A55S25

Pros: This model of the A-55 has a Dram Cache, which massively improves performance.

Overall Review: If you buy one of these A-55's make sure to get this one and not the one that says "SLC Cache". The "SLC Cache" one uses the NAND flash as a cache and not Dram, making it slower.

Amazing Mini PC

HP EliteDesk 705 G4 Mini Desktop Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE (3.20GHz) 8GB DDR4 256GB SSD Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
HP EliteDesk 705 G4 Mini Desktop Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE (3.20GHz) 8GB DDR4 256GB SSD Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

Pros: Super tiny, 4 cores 8 threads, AMD Vega 11 graphics, comes with Windows, and very quiet.

Cons: There is a video driver issue as of 9/1/23 that can cause the PC to crash. The cause is Windows Multi-Plane Overlay (MPO). Disabling it will fix the problem. Nvidia released a program that will disable MPO, just search for it. No stars off since it happens to both Nvidia/AMD and that there is a simple fix.

Overall Review: Mine came with the Wi-Fi antenna still attached, and with 1 8GB stick of 2666 DDR Ram. I added an m.2 Wi-Fi card and another 8gb stick of ram. It's a perfect HTPC, the Vega 11 has no problem playing 4k.

Works great!

Overall Review: Fast, Cheap, and Reliable!

Amazing device when paired with Torque Pro.

BAFX Products 34t5 Bluetooth OBDII Scan Tool for Android Devices
BAFX Products 34t5 Bluetooth OBDII Scan Tool for Android Devices

Pros: Works on my 2000 Infinti G20 and my 2002 Ford Escort. Gives me sooooo much info that older cars couldn't fit on the dash. Stuff like Air Intake Temp, exact coolant temp, vacuum pressure, fuel flow rate, and many more.

Overall Review: Buy this and the Torque Pro app that is $5. The two together create an amazing tool for ~$25. Free Apps do work, but Torque Pro lets you use the device to its full potential.

Nice refurb.

The PC was spotless, no dust at all. It was packed with that foam that expands, so it was nice and safe. Would buy again.

Fast shipping.

I ordered on Thursday, it was delivered on Sunday. I received the tracking number through email and not through Newegg's site. It was a bit sus, but my package arrived 3 days after I ordered, and the item was brand new. So I can't complain.

Refurbished PC looks brand new.

I opened the PC to put in an extra SSD I had lying around, and It looks like a brand-new PC inside. Very impressed. They used the Instapak foam, so the PC was surrounded by 2-3 inches of foam on all sides. I'll be buying from again.
