Pros: VESA mountable to my 24 monitor, so it sure freed up a lot of my desk space (see attached pictures). I use the HDMI output, but my stepsons VESA monitor only had a VGA connector so I was glad the AC-8 supports both. I removed a microSD card from my old SurfacePro 4 that had all my eBooks on it (2,621 of them) and put it in the front slot of the AC-8 Mini PC. The eBooks open quickly and scrolling down the pages is smooth. I ordered it on 13 August 2022 and it was delivered on 20 August 2022. So, 7 days all the way from China. Again, my 3rd one came by air so I avoided all the shipping delays associated with product that is sent by container ship. I installed the Firefox web browser (I read the eBooks in Firefox) and the new Office 2021 suit. To help cut down on clutter, I connected the soundbar thru the Bluetooth connection that comes with the AC-8 Mini PC. Ill eventually connect my Logitech MX Anywhere 2S thru Bluetooth and eliminate one more cable but I was anxious to get setup. OK, after the pictures were taken, I did connect my Bluetooth mouse and it worked just fine. I simultaneously streamed music, loaded an eBook in Firefox from the microSD and scrolled thru the text with no interference. I only have one wireless keyboard but Id like to get another Bluetooth keyboard and eliminate all the cables on my desktop. You can see both the wired USB 2 mouse & keyboard plugged into the front of the Mini PC. With the Bluetooth mouse and a new keyboard, that would just leave the Mini PC power cable & the HDMI cable visible behind the monitor. The desk is visible from my living room so eliminating all the cable clutter is aesthetically pleasing to my wife.

Cons: Not really a con against the Mini PC but I was shipped one with a 256 GB SSD instead of the 512 I ordered (by a mistake made in the NEOSMAY shipping dept.). Some lucky customer got a 512 GB SSD instead. Before I even powered it on, I contacted Barry @ NEOSMAY. He immediately shipped me the correct size 512 GB SSD @ NO CHARGE. He included a really nice 25 piece tool kit that in addition to the common Phillips & straight slot bits includes a number of specialized bits. Talk about customer service! Swapping out the SSDs was really simple. Remove the bottom cover (2 screws) and remove 1 screw that holds the SSD in place. The SSD pops up and slides right out of its socket. The new one slid in and I gently pushed it into place on the motherboard and reattached the holding screw. Anybody with a small Phillips screw driver can upgrade to a larger SATA m.2 SSD pretty easily. I mentioned in my first review that I thought the MiniPC was as fast as my SurfacePro 8 (which cost ten times more). Ive since been able to download benchmarks comparing the N6005 processor to the I-7 in the SurfacePro. The benchmarks showed the I-7 to be two to two and a half times faster than the N6005 processor. So, I guess it depends on what youre doing. For me, downloading email, using a web browser, creating Word documents, tracking expenses in Excel, listening to music and reading eBooks I cant really tell much if any difference. I do not play video intensive games so the integrated graphics is quite suitable for what I do. If youre video editing, a 3D animator or a game developer, then youre probably better served by a much more powerful processor like the I5, I7 or I9. But for economics and everyday use the Intel Silver N6005 is sure impressive.

Overall Review: I bought three of these and Im very happy with all three. The first one replaced my wifes XP tower machine; the 2nd one provided my stepson with a modern computer he could use on-line to pay his bills and do tele-med (I added a camera) and I bought the third one for myself after being so impressed by the first two.

Pros: I ordered two (Purchased on April 8, 2015 & March 24, 2015) Both AV88SATG ‘s are solidly constructed. After I got the first one working (see Cons & Other Thoughts) I ordered a second one to protect for my wife’s computer. The second one I ordered arrived today with both cables & worked out of the box.

Cons: The first AV88SATG I ordered just buzzed in auto mode. It was also missing the Ethernet cable. I think the first one was a defective return and somebody forgot to repack the Ethernet cable when they returned it. I was too embarrassed to send it back. In the last few months, it seems like half the stuff I order from New egg is defective. I ordered two hard drives & had to send one back for an I/O error, a PS that kept shutting down & memory that I sent back three times that Newegg wouldn’t replace again (GSkill directly sent me a pair of modules that work great).

Overall Review: Tripp Lite uses three secure lock screws to prevent end users from repairing these units. If you don’t have the bits, don’t even try to get it apart. The rattle was a tiny 10 mfd electrolytic capacitor that didn’t look like it ever got soldered on. I also found a loose 47 mfd capacitor hanging from a trace. Fortunately, I had both values in bench stock and was able to fit in standard sized parts. Once I replaced those loose parts, the first AV88SATG performed as it should.

Pros: Ordered on sale the 2nd of Dec. 2024 and received it on the 4th. Worked out-of-the-box. Warranty registration was easy Limited Life time warranty (I'm 81 so good luck with that)

Cons: None. (On sale, with $6.99 shipping, it was almost as expensive as others with free shipping)

Overall Review: I hooked port 1 to my router, port 2 to my HP printer, ports 3 & 4 to NAS servers and ports 5-8 to computers. Advanced IP Scanner shows all 7 devices connected to the network from a wireless remote location. It replaced a failed 8-port tp-linkTL-SG108.

Pros: Really good price for a USB-3 KVM Switch. I ordered the KVM switch on Friday 4/7/2023 and received it on Saturday 4/15/2023. So, 8 days from China is pretty fast. It comes with two ~46 blue USB type A to A cables and one 31 black power USB C to A cable. No HDMI cables are included. I planned to replace a Tesla Smart 4-port USB-2 KVM switch with this one since my wife only has two computers (see CONs).

Cons: Even though under Specs, the Power Features section lists a DC 5V power supply it doesnt come with a separate 5V power supply. It does come with a 31 USB C to A cable to power it. Unfortunately, this means that the computer that you use to power the switch has to have an available, always active, USB connection or it has to be on all the time for the switch to receive power. I have several 5V USB A power adapters so this wasnt a problem for me, but its something to be aware of. The Package List picture clearly shows exactly what you get. The Switch wouldnt work with XP until I downloaded and installed nusb3hub.sys file for the NEC Electronics USB 3 Hub. Once it was installed, I didnt get any further XP error messages. Since the computer has a Gigabyte motherboard, I downloaded the file from the Gigabyte website. With an HDMI input from computer 1 (In1) there was no usable display when I switched to computer 2 (In2). Computer 2s display would occasionally flash on but it wouldnt stay on long enough to even shut it down. Disconnecting computer 1s HDMI cable allowed computer 2 to display normally. When computer 1 (In1) wasnt powered on, computer 2 (In2) displayed normally. Computer 1 displayed correctly whether computer 2 was on or not. Computer 1 is a multi-boot system with Windows 10, 7, XP and Ubuntu. At bootup, the wired USB keyboard (plugged into the front of the AUBEAMTO 2-Port USB 3 KVM Switch) wasnt recognized so I couldnt switch between operating systems. This function worked with the Tesla Smart 4-port KVM switch so I was surprised it didnt work with the AUBEAMTO 2-Port USB 3 KVM Switch.

Overall Review: Everything worked properly with the 4-port Tesla Smart KVM switch installed both before and after I tried the AUBEAMTO 2-Port USB 3 KVM Switch. I would not recommend this switch for other users. If you dont have a dual boot or multi boot computer and only have one computer on at a time, it might work for you. Since my wife switches between XP on computer 1 and Windows 11 on computer 2 having to unplug an HDMI cable is a show stopper. Because of all the problems listed under cons, I will be returning the AUBEAMTO KVM Switch to Newegg for a replacement or a refund.

Pros: It's SATA not NVME so it fit my "Bare Bones" Neosmay AC-8 Mini PC.

Cons: None Windows 11 partitioned it, formatted it and installed flawlessly. I had to shrink the Windows 11 partition and create a 50 GB partition for Ubuntu and the separate data partition. All this can be done by Windows 11 disk management utility.

Overall Review: I bought 16 GB (2x8) of Silicon Power memory and this SSD to build an inexpensive Windows 11/Ubuntu 22.04 computer. Enough space to install a 150 GB Windows 11 partition and a 50 GB Ubuntu 22.04 partition with plenty of space left over for a data partition. Would definitely buy again.

Pros: Perfect size (64 GB) to store my eBooks and programs to setup a new computer.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I bought two. They plug into the front of my AC-8 Mini PC's that I also bought from Newegg and Newegg Business.

I wrote a detailed review before Newegg took this switch off it's site. The one I got wouldn't switch between 2 computers unless you disconnected one computer or left it powered off. I asked for a replacement but got a refund instead. A working replacement would have been preferred because I need USB 3.0 to speed data transfer to an external hard drive. Currently using a Tesla Smart 4-Port USB-2.0 switch.

I bought this SSD to complete the build out of a Bare Bones computer I bought from Newegg Business. I installed Windows 11 in a 150 GB partition and have the rest for storage. It works good and seems just as fast as other brands 256, 512 and 1 TB models. Notice that this is a slower SATA drive and not an NVME drive - they use different interfaces, so their not interchangeable!

I have three of these. After I received the first one, I ordered two more. They offer more outlets than any of my other power strips and the outlets are spaced wide enough apart so that I can easily plug in all my low powered transformer/adapters. With everything plugged in, I still don't draw a third of their rated power. Ideal for use with multiple transformer/adapters that every computer accessory seems to come with.
