Not really a good price for this - not terrible but better off getting the minis forum AI 370 one with 32g and 1tb for 636 - if you could get this for $325 it makes sense

K8 Plus (8845HS) is a much better purchase.

$475 for K11 (8945HS) WITHOUT ram, ssd, or Windows license.
$520 for K8 Plus, that includes 32gb DDR5 ram, 1tb NVME SSD, and Windows 11 license. (Amazon and GMK website)

You will see zero difference in performance, but probably more heat.

The AOOSTAR with the 8745HS is $299 right now (I paid $329 about two months ago).
It is 300 mhz less and doesnt have the NPU (16 TOPS is not that fast), but you save $170. It has the all-important oculink port and all of the usual fixins.

Even if you juice up the CPUs to 75 watts, you will never run all of the cores at the 4.9 ghz, let alone 5.2 ghz. It makes a ton more noise for basically nothing (regardless of brand)

I had the M7 and the K8 for a while and had no issues with either. The only benchmark between AOOSTAR and GMKTec showed the GMKTec being faster due to adjustable frame buffer for the shared VRAM, which I can 100% attest is also adjustable (though buried in the BIOS) on the AOOSTAR, up to 16g.

Honestly, if it werent for their anti-oculink position, I would go for Beelink, but given that they are all in on their proprietary dock for their GTi series, I knew that wasnt going to happen.

I thought the same, but didn't express my opinion as doing so without providing context is fruitless for the community.

I recommend the AOOSTAR as well. I got the GEM 10 last month with the 7840HS and soldered 32GB. I've got a 3060 12GB running off it with Oculink and it works great. The AOOSTAR's build quality is on par with Asus/Intel Nuc's.
