CHUWI CoreBox Mini PC, Windows 10 Mini Desktop Computers with Intel i5-8259U CPU,16GB RAM 512GB SSD, Gaming PC up to 3.8GHz, Expandable 2TB, Dual WiFi/Gigabit Ethernet / BT4.2, Portable Tower PC

This computer is great for basic gaming. I play Elder Scrolls Online and World of Warcraft, both play very well on this computer. I did have trouble starting up the computer the first time as my gaming keyboard required additional power and did not work. I had to get a regular cheap keyboard and mouse to get it going. I do wish the hdd was larger since both games I installed almost filled the drive but I can get another one to add on later.

Performance is medium fast..Older cpu but fine for most programs, including some games.Win 10 working as expected.Modern looking mini-tower case.Looks good on desktop.One con, no front usb ports

This little machine is a really good deal for the price. Yes I have to admit, I wish it ran games a little better, but it's not bad for a computer under $400. It will run GTA5, but not very well. Lightening fast startup time. Opens many apps very quickly. CPU clocks at 100% in games, but doesn't lock up very often. Graphics card could be better, but sufficient if you don't care about how the game looks. Planning on experimenting with eGPU on this little machine and see if it will even run it. Not the best machine with multitasking several large apps at once. It will work, but very slowly. Size and Sound of fans are excellent. Takes up a very small footprint on my desk. So far I'm pleased, but if you are into gaming with large graphic intensive games, I suggest spending quite a bit more money and buy an actual gaming computer/laptop.

So far, this has been an excellent machine. Note that, contrary to some descriptions I am reading here, this has one HDMI port and one Display Port, both standard size. It does NOT have two HDMI ports. So be sure you have a monitor with a Display Port connector on it if you plan to use that port on this computer. Adapters won't work.

This was a fantastic mini PC, did everything as expected. One day, out the blue, it just got the Windows blue screen of death. Never booted on again. I emailed CHUWI about this and no luck.Save your money.

I purchased this item for my son to use for lite gaming. It has been wonderful. One of the things I like most about it is its portability. He can take it back and forth between my house and his mothers house...and it hooks up to his television at each place to use as a monitor.My son is happy with it, and so am I.

Great value. Seems well constructed. Suggest a wireless keyboard/mouse combo as USB ports are limited to 4. I find it faster than my laptop. the bootup time is extremely fast: probobly due to ssd.

Only gonna comment on what people care about:This model DOES come with type c, not thunderbolt.Comes with Sata adapter for a regular sized ssd (highly recommend to use if you want an external gpu)you can attach an nvme EGPU to it.it has 2 dimm slots, for upgradabilityUSB 3.0 is nice but 3.1 and thunderbolt would be nicer.I had a Hard drive caddy with a 4tb HDD for extra storage connected to 3.0 -- worked great for games like DBFZProblem is its dual core so gaming on it is iffy. tried warzone with a 1660 attached to it at 1080p and it ran like crap. visuals were fuzzy and blurry i still dont know why. it wasnt bad in the heat department, even when dropping the res it acted that way. but some of it couldve been warzone at the time.DBFZ worked great at any resolution that wasnt 4k.I cut a mini rectangle to feed my nvme egpu cable in and it looked natural.If youre on a budget i say go for it, get the fastest SATA ssd you can find and use an egpu. and when you upgrade from it , slap android x86 on it and use it as an HTPC. the SSD it came with died in about a month of usage. make sure you slap new thermal paste on it when you get it.Other stuff: Build quality is okay. design is nice, the plastic isnt finicky, and the screws held up nice except for one of the heatsink support screws (not the main 3 used to hold it down thankfully). but taking it apart multiple times can be a pain.
