Strengths:
Howdy,
Strengths - Can activate windows upon initial setup. Then do a clean install with a bootable usb drive of win10. (Not 11 compatible, cpu limit).
Great total ram, efficient to setup, all apps run smooth for general google apps, office 365 current, and windows 10 with all drivers installing smoothly from windows update (surprised me, efficiently).
Even did a smooth windows - bios update without hassle.
There is room for 3x sata ports, can addon additional hdd (3.5 or 2.5") and if you truly wanted, you can physically space out, (free form) optional 3x ssd (2.5") by disconnecting the dvd drive (discreet and functional). And then a basic nvme as well of 1-2tb also.
Weaknesses:
Due to character limit, strengths extended:
For general photoshop or affinity photo. If you toss in a SFF nvidia 1-3000 series gpu for sff, it'll fit snugly but properly.
Airflow is reasonable, and it is super easy to troubleshoot/tackle.
It's no i7/i9 recent gen. But for it's price point and a good family or general office data entry computer. Solid system, fully reliable and effective. Certainly worth the price point and addon warranty('s)
Can ugprade to 64gb ram, a huge plus. Ram swap is used for the intel gpu which then benefits further as well. Came with 2x8gb/ddr4/2133
---------------
Being 6th gen, not newest/latest, but still effective.
Additional Comments:
Overall a solid office computing machine, well worth it.
