No it's about 20 times likely embedded with PRC Malware that will steal your identity and all your money.
Would a wipe and reinstall windows protect against this?

If you're really THAT paranoid about someone stealing your identity and getting all your personal info, better not install Windows 11!

Sometimes. It depends on if the malware goes to the BIOS level. They have found a way to implement it via hardware/software update like keyloggers but YMMV at the BIOS level.

I'd use a secondary account for setup after a fresh OS install and monitor incoming/outgoing traffic if possible. Hate to trust it to have it then hack my home internet and cause a headache or worse grab all the traffic including passwords

So mini computers are more likely to have malware installed or it is a certain manufacturer?

Random/unknown/new companies always hold a risk.

It sadly only takes a few bad actors and/or someone not properly flashing components from returns

not just mini computers, (according to google ai search)

Manufacturers like Lenovo has been accused of having Chinese spyware on its products. Lenovo has been caught installing Superfish, a malware that could interfere with a user's browser and create security vulnerabilities. The company has also been accused of installing unremovable rootkit software via a hidden Windows feature, Lenovo Service Engine.

For what it's worth, GMKtec, Beelink, Minisforum are the bigger brands in this space. I have a GMKtec HX 370 EVO X1 I use as a low power consumption server. I ran full scans of everything, nothing. PC came with no bloatware at all. I would stay away from AceMagic though…

Sony didn't same thing a while back. So it's not only a Chinese thing.

I don't give a shit about spyware, I won't store any credit card numbers or nudes on this. 😂

Can someone approximate what this "gaming" device can realistically run? Cyberpunk in 1080p completely out of the question, I assume?
