Hi folks, can you guys recommend me a Micro PC that's good value at the moment?
Something like a Dell Micro PC or a NUC device or Lenovo alternative or something.
$350 and under.
Cheers.

Best value for money. Dual monitors mainly and office work. But I dont want a 100 dollar unit that going to bog me down.
any newish pc will basically do that these days. even generations old ones.
just look for minimum 8gb ram and whatever your storage needs.
@frondono: I would recommend 16GB. Windows, your browser and few office applications would eat through 8GB in no time. RAM is cheap so could be something you upgrade yourself provided you it’s not a PC with integrated memory
Do you already have the monitors? What screen size/resolution/connector?
The 1220P version of this is often available on Amazon for about $400, they are great little machines for the price, 10 core, 12 thread CPU, budget price, dual NVMe slots, dual RAM slots… Solid little performers.

This a squillion ex corp Micro/Tiny PC's on Ebay. Lenovo, Dell, HP. Even the older ones are still perfectly serviceable and will be for a long time. I have a Dell 7060 i5 with 32gb of RAM, m2 SSD and also has a separate 2.5" Sata capacity as well. It's an awesome machine and cost me under $200 at the time, though deals come and go.

Hey, chingy213! Go get a Micro PC!
"Hey, Micro PC, get a chingy123"
either could be it, with the preposition missing.
Check out ebay to see what is available at the moment and see if any of them meet your "good value" requirement as good value can mean allot of different things to people. I use raw CPU power where as you may see good value in it being quiet so it can be used as a media player or you may see good value for …..
The way to get maximum value on mini pcs I am reliably informed involves staying up to 1am on Monday morning and checking Amazon from midnight to 1 am.
Or was it Sunday morning?
I got my SOYO M4PLUS2 Mini PC: 8 GB RAM, 256 GBSSD, Intel Twin Lak N150, Windows 11Pro from AliExpress for around $150+ and it's been good for working from home for a few months now. I have nothing (program or apps, only windows 11) installed and I am doing everything by the web browser.
How do you define good value? It differs for different people. Do you need raw CPU power? GPU? Specific ports? Expansion? Multiple monitor support? Low energy consumption? VESA mountable? Aesthetics?…
