  • In the Ebay listing under "Features" you have DVD-RW listed.

    Don't think that is right is it?

    • +2

      Fixed, no the machines are smaller than a 3.5" dvd-rw >.<

      • +5

        *5.25"

        • +3

          How embarrassing…….

        • It’s not the size that matters, it’s how you use it. So she said.

      • They're about the same size as an external laptop DVD drive. You can get official DVD docks for them, e.g.
        https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LENOVO-THINKCENTRE-TINY-PC-DVD-S…

        • Can confirm I have the cheaper m92p version and it has a dvd drive with screwed on, it just makes the package thicker and adds a couple of USB ports. I have it connected to my TV and it makes a compact and pretty quiet PC for general tasks.

    • +10

      Can this handle a Geforce RXT 2080 Ti Super?

      • +8

        Sure, you just need a USB-3 to PCI-e adapter with external power supply, as used for gaming on laptops.

        • whahtttttttttt, this sht actually works? What's performance hit like?

          Sounds more like a mining setup

        • +2

          Don't forget you'd also need an additional PSU to power the GPU, maybe also a cardboard box to hold them in too.

          • @FabMan: You could just put it into a new case though, right?

            • @ONEMariachi: If you want to be all fancy… I suppose you like eating dinner off a plate too?

              • @FabMan: How many GPUs can I fit on this so called dinner plate

  • Warranty?

    • All of our stock comes with a Minimum 3-month Warranty.

      • +18

        Whats the maximum?

        • +3

          • +6

            @nismo: And beyond!

            • +1

              @PainToad: or till the day you die

  • Just bought HP 800 G2

    • Link? That’s a great system…

    • Do they take 2.5" SSD or m2?

      Also, does the USB-C on the front provide charge and data or just charge?

  • Hi Op, just curious what refurb activities are done? Purchased two diff models in the past - one was fine but the 2nd one there was alot of dust build up in the power supply fan and it was also faulty (maybe i was unlucky but I had to return it).

    • 2nd one From us? We blow all of our equipment out.

      • +7

        That's what my wife says

  • +1

    What form factor RAM sticks do these take, and what is the current arrangement making up the 8gb?

    • +2

      I've opened a couple and seen a single 8Gb SO-DIMM. There are two slots, but I can't guarantee that specific ram configuration.

      • can you upgrade RAM before shipping?

        • Yep, in the listing, I've just added the option to upgrade to 16Gb ram. If you click on it, it will take you to a new listing. Simple purchase both or check-out at the same time.

          • +1

            @Calmago: Is it? I can't see it on ebay page.

      • +3

        i7 4765t is released on 2013. OP - have you got any recent processors

        • +5

          They've got 381 listings on eBay. There are some 6th gen processors in there. Don't see a lot of refurbished computers newer than that.

          • @DonWilson: Lol thanks…how did you scan through 381 listing so quickly?

            • +2

              @pyramid: When people want a cheap PC I direct them to these guys so I've looked at what they have available a lot. It's entirely possible there's something newer on there now I just don't think I've ever seen one.

        • +9

          i7 4765t is plenty powerful enough to still breeze through what 99% of people use their PC for - Facebook and Youtube.

          • +5

            @d3ft: And ozb

          • +1

            @d3ft: The trouble is that people want to buy these, stick a mid to high end graphics card in and call it a contender against a $4000 gaming rig. Of course when it melts into a puddle because it's not designed for that or they find they can't swap out a proprietary power supply and have to replace half the parts they'll gripe.

            The guys buying these as a media PC or file server will fair better though their electricity bills won't be great.

            • @syousef: How expensive is it to run your average computer 24/7?
              200 Watt @ 27.56c/kWh = 44.1c/day

              • +1

                @quanticism:

                200 Watt @ 27.56c/kWh = 44.1c/day

                A computer won't be drawing 200W 24/7 if it's just sitting there idle most of the time like a NAS or media PC would be. It will if you're mining crypto or something constantly heavy, but if it's just sitting there idle it would be in the double digits.

                e.g. https://www.anandtech.com/show/10325/the-nvidia-geforce-gtx-…

                Their overclocked 6-core 130W TDP i7-4960X rig's idle power consumption with a GTX1080 is 74 watts.

                • @eug: that's giving me second thoughts. I've got a USFF 9010 as a plex server that's on 24/7. I wonder if there is an easy way to measure how much power it uses.

                  • @Calmago: I've measured my 9020 i7 usff and it was pulling less than 20W at idle, with one external USB drive attached.

                  • +1

                    @Calmago:

                    I wonder if there is an easy way to measure how much power it uses.

                    You could use a meter like this.

                  • @Calmago: You could measure it at the power point using a multimeter if you had one lying around, although that's not incredibly safe. Otherwise you can buy a watt meter.

                    $20 at Bunnings or Jaycar

                    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/193026279644

                    I bought one about 15 years ago and I don't use it often but it's nice to have.

                    • @DonWilson:

                      Hmm… strictly speaking, you cannot measure AC watts of a nonresistive load with a multimeter. You'll get VA instead. You could get close to the true power if the PSU has power factor correction, but it's still not 100% accurate.

                  • @Calmago: If not transcoding, Plex wouldn't consume too much more than idle just serving the media files for Direct Play at clients. See my comment below re idle power consumption

                • +1

                  @eug: As a reference point, a similar form factor machine Lenovo m900 Tiny with a i5-6500T idles at about 10W measured at the wall.

                  These machines idles at similar level to good laptops.

                  Idle power consumption often depends on the power supply. The laptop style bricks idle low well as limited by a relatively low power rating. For example these machines often has bricks at about 60W. My desktop PSU would take around 50W in comparison

              • @quanticism: My brain is asleep. I calculated it for 8 hours per day instead of 24.

                Nice to know that the actual power draw is far less when idling though.

          • @d3ft: no youtube or fb for me…I wanted to build some cluster to run big data jobs…

    • Not entirely based on your question but crucial has a list of compatible RAM and SSDs, good for reference if wanting to purchase RAM/SSDs and wanting to check compatibility.

  • +2

    Does this model have an HDMI port or the Display Port/VGA?

    Thanks in advance.

    • Also want to know this

    • Display Port/VGA

      • +1

        It states this:

        I/o PortsFront ports 2 x USB 3.0 (1 x AlwaysOn) Mic (stereo) Headphone / mic combo jack (stereo) Rear ports 3 x USB 3.0 (optional external optical box or external I/O box or TIO 23 occupies one specific USB 2.0) Optional port (USB 2.0 / serial / HDMI / 2nd DisplayPort) Ethernet (RJ45) VGA DB-15 DisplayPort (occupied by optional TIO 23)

        Does have HDMI listed there

        • Actually I'm starting to question it too, there is an options to 'add a usb wireless' but the listing suggests it has a wifi adapater in it.

          • @ezza: Yeah there are a lot of "optional" ports that I guess are there for the the main use of this type of machine.

          • @ezza: I've removed that upgrade. It's just part of our listing templates as most desktops stocks don't have wifi.

        • It's optional. There is a punch out on the rear of the machines for an additional port.

          It's above the VGA port

          Picture

          • @Calmago: What is optional?

            wifi or HDMI? or both? it doesn't have as stock standard price?

            • +3

              @ezza: The machines have wifi.

              They don't have HDMI

              HDMI is available if you can find the optional part to add to the machine. Or you can add another USB Port, serial or another Display Port connection. It's an optional expansion port.

              • @Calmago: Hmmm… I would suggest making your listing a little clearer.

              • @Calmago: How much is the hdmi expansion port?

            • +1

              @ezza: so what ports are included in standard - hdmi, display port or vga?
              how do I plug it to the monitor then.

              a picture would be nice - showing all the ports.

  • What's RAM upgradeability like? How many slots? DDR2/3? Does this take full size sticks or SODIMMs?

    • Dude read comments, it's up there, you can upgrade if you want.

      • +11

        It all happened so fast… oh god where am I?

  • +2

    Don't need one at all but that's a top notch price for a powerful little box. Might grab one for the parents.

    • top notch or rock bottom?

  • +1

    A quick q.. does it have a slot for another SSD?

    • Unfortunately room for only one 2.5"

  • Could you rip the board out and put it into a full sized case and make a very powerful NAS?

    • You probably couldn't connect many HDDs to it

    • +1

      Why don't people use USB3 external drives? That's what I do. 100MB/sec is fast enough for me.

      • I imagine lots of people running NASes would run more than one drive either for redundancy, more storage space, or to put multiple older drives to good use.

      • bottle necks very quickly when you have more than 2-3 people streaming at once.

  • This be any good for a home theatre box or am I better off with something else?

    • I think it would be excellent for that purpose

      • 4k though?

        • Considering its an i7, I believe so. I currently have a NUC with a celeron processor and it wont render anything higher than 720p.

    • +4

      Nvidia shield!!

      • +1

        Why Shield over this?

  • I have this monitor https://www.mwave.com.au/product/lg-29wk500p-29-uwhd-srgb-99… connected to my HP Compaq 8000 Elite Ultra-sliim desktop via DisplayPort to HDMI adaptor. The drivers for the onboard graphics doesn't support 2560 x 1080 resolution.

    Any idea if this machine would?

  • Is it going to be capable of 4k@60hz with the ports it has ? I know the CPU is capable

  • Upgrade to 16GB RAM (refurbished) for $110? Is that worth the money?
