MINISFORUM Motherboard BD795i SE, AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX, 16 C/32 T,PCIe 5.0 x16 Slot, Dual PCIe4.0 M.2 Mini ITX NAS Motherboard, Support DDR5,8K Triple Output(HDMI/DP/USB-C), RJ45 2.5G,USB 3.2

I experienced a problem with my motherboard that caused it to stop working almost a year after purchase. Minisforum support issued a 90% refund and were good to work with, although the process took over a month to complete (including shipping back to Minisforum).

La utilizo para producción de Audio Abelton Live , instrumentos virtuales de Arturia, Avenger 2 etc. . Estoy impresionado con la extremada eficiencia. Me da mas del doble de velocidad que mi placa anterior ( Intel Core i9-12900HK CPU Mark 26800 198 watts al 100% carga) y consume 80 Watts Menos

This is great value and performance for a small build. While the BIOS is pretty basic it does the job. Be prepared for only nvme memory and only 1 pci-e slot. Not Sata ports so your only storage will be the nvme drives. The heatsink is enough and fans didn't ramp up to keep the cpu cool while playing cyberpunk 2077. Cpu was able to keep with with anything I threw at it and was ~30% faster than my previous build with a ryzen 9 5900x

This thing blew me away. Smokes my R9 9900X desktop in multi-threaded tasks, and dramatically lower power, and probably everything else, because that 9900X has been nothing but an overpriced disappointment. And it does all of it, complete with motherboard, cooler (no fan) for the same price I paid for that 9900X alone. There's nothing to really tune, so outside of the process of building a SFF PC (or similar) there's not much to tinker with. But that's a plus as far as I am concerned, I'd rather work with my hands than a menu. Thing runs as you expect given enough cooling. Provide your CPU fan fresh intake, and equip it with a high static pressure fan. If you're building into a SFF case, the intake is probably a freebee, but your fan size/pressure probably is. Do some research here. I built into a 2U chassis: no room for top-down fan orientation. It all comes from front intake 80MM fans. Two 10K RPM (very) high static pressure fans (and a bit of creative ducting to squash the air flow over the ram and into the fin stack) does the job without the CPU throttling after many hours at 100% load. More on this in the post It has been SO impressive I am legitimately considering taking my desktop to the dumpster and replacing it with one of these MINISFORUM platforms. There is almost nothing bad for me to say about this thing. Yeah - software (firmware) support is meager, but the board has minimal features. what's to support? Oh, no, there's no BIOS flashback! Why would you need it? The CPU can not be upgraded? There are countless "nice" features on full size boards, nevermind premium boards. But when those things cost as much as this entire package?! What are you going to do with it? Stuff a CPU in it that costs more than the entire BD795i? Nothing like more than doubling your investment to get the same performance. If you have some special use case. Overlocker for the sake of overclocking. Do you. But this device even supports PCIE bifrucation. You can load this up with graphics cards for mining if you were so inclined, and there's some potential for a dedicated AI system with come caveats about PCIE bandwidth. Anything that loads up VRAM once and processes almost indefinitely, no problems. I've literally almost talked myself into it just now! Provided, I should note 75% of what makes this thing great and likewise my review is the CPU itself. 7945HX is basically a 7950X with a few caveats. Where Ryzen 9000 series are nearly 7000 series refreshes to be low power, there's not much more to improve. Thus MINISFORUM delivers something very barebones, and glance over the PCB is a testament to just how bare bones. There's NOTHING on these boards. Large swashed without so much as a trace. In reality, that's all they really need to do. The 7945HX is such a boss CPU it just needs a vehicle to get into people's hands. And they did. At an impressively competitive price. Can't be beat! I'm genuinely impressed. I don't think I have been this impressed with computer hardware in ten years. Here's hoping it lasts ten years. In the off chance feedback makes it back to MINISFORUM: things I would like to see updated on MINIS products - temperature sensor fan control. I would like to configure ALL of my fans to follow CPU temperature. Future products with 'server' oriented memory. Most of these SFF platforms have custom chassis, so the cooling can always be adapted in the custom designs. Not so for rack mounted chassis configurations. Memory sticks become a baffle for the CPU fin stack. If Memory slots and NVME slots were swapped, I would happily. MINIS even sells custom NVME coolers. A new design that sets their own fins in line with the CPU finstack is a no brainer. At that point either they align with CPU cooler for blow-through designs of servers, or they naturally pick up from top-down CPU fans blowing out of the CPU fins. Meanwhile even a modest case fan blowing through the now in-line memory modules is plenty sufficient, especially for lower speed SODIMMs. Make it happen, MINIS! I'm already planning two more builds with your products. These things are so great! Make it even easier for me to slap one or two special models into 1u/2u rack chassis and I won't even think twice.

I normally dont leave reviews but i had ebough of amazon and crap vendors this is complete trash, not only do you have super limited features for the price these are hit or miss, my board was good for a little over a month and out of nowere started giving random blue screens. Amazon customer service has dropped alot since back then and offer little to no help. I reached out to the vendor and i basically had to give them a kidney and even sent a video of it doing it before they offered for me to buy another model that is more expensive or send this back to them at my cost and i am left with no computer. 400 dollars down the drain. Please be smart and do your reaearch. Buy a intel board guys. Never buying minisforum again. And i will be reaching out to as many forums and voicing how bad this junk is for as long as i have too.
