I purchased one of the new GTKtec Mini PCs about two weeks ago to replace the laptop I have been using in my ham shack. I was impressed by its capabilities and small size.
Amazon link: GMKtec Mini PC NucBox G5
Here are the specifications:

I have bench marked this computer against my main desktop machine with a 4.2Ghz quad core, 8 thread machine and it is more than half as powerful which looks good. I am in the process of setting up all of the ham radio apps and tools and should have that finished in a week or two. It will have two 23” 1080p monitors so that won’t be too much of a strain on it. I will keep the club updated on my progress.
