    Great solution for turning a 4K TV into a full blown computer.
    4 Stars
    Great solution for turning a 4K TV into a full blown computer.
    Added this RAMKingston Technology HyperX Impact 32GB Kit (2x16GB) 2133MHz DDR4 CL13 260-Pin SODIMM Laptop Memory Module HX421S13IBK2/32And this HDSamsung PM961 256GB M.2 NGFF PCIe Gen3 x4, NVME Solid state drive SSD, OEM (2280) (MZVLW256HEHP-00000)Passmark score of system below.All components performed to spec. The weak link in the system is the 3D graphics. DirectX12 nearly grinds to halt.System is great for any non-gaming application. Size is great. Fan whines a bit, but only noticeable when the room is quiet. Didn't notice it when the TV is on.The mounting kit for a 100mm by 100mm VESA mount makes it perfect to marry with a TV or existing monitor.Would have given it 5 stars if the 3D graphics had performed better. The integrated Intel graphics are not up-gradable. Maybe a future driver release will improve 3D performance. Will adjust review if improvement is seen.
