All right, I'll ask the dumb question. Can this be 100% powered by the USB-C port that supports 100 W PD in?

The Ryzen 7 H 255 is a chip from the Hawk Point family that is only available in China. The chip is identical to the older Ryzen 7 8745H...

This same Mini PC (same specs) is $575 on MinisForum website... For those of us not close to a MicroCenter and don't mind waiting a couple weeks for delivery.

it is 575 directly off the website, or 351 barebone.
i know there are people who only buys minisforum from a place that has easy return. but purely from price perspective, it is not that great of a price.

I would have posted it already, before you commented, had it been in stock. It's out of stock and has been for quite some time now. Thanks, regardless.

How does this newer AI X1-255 model compare to the UM890 Pro?

Ive had my eye on the UM890 Pro for 1080p gaming not knowing about this cheaper X1-255 model. Thanks.
