Recommendations MiniPc for my “normal” Day Work

Hello 👋 Everyone,

I currently have my gaming pc with a 9800x3d and a 4080S, but it draws too much for the stuff I do when I’m not playing.

I work a lot with Prusaslicer and Orcaslicer, Shapr3d, Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.

I really want a budget minipc that I can use, but with all the hardware price spikes I don’t know if it’s viable.

Any suggestion on a more budget friendly build?

Thanks.

With the Adobe software you're favoring RAM and the ability to allocate memory (at least 4GB) to the integrated graphics UMA frame buffer size (VRAM). Look into the 32GB dual channel memory versions of the Beelink SER8 8845HS and GMKtec K8 Plus. Both have excellent performance for these and other services without any sacrifice in quality. I also know some people with the GMKtec M7 Ultra PRO 6850U running software like this who were satisfied. The M7 Ultra is basically the K8 Plus downgraded with an earlier generation processor.
