msi Cubi 5 Professional Mini PC, 12th Gen Intel i5-1235U Processor (Beats Ryzen 7 5700U), 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Windows 11 Pro, Support 4K@60Hz Display, Seamless Multitasking at Work/Gaming

I was still using a 10yr old Intel I5 desktop PC with Win10 and boy is it archaic compared to this Intel I7 system with Win11pro. Its fast, small, setup was easy and it works like a champ for everyday use. Don’t hesitate to get yourself one you won’t regret it. 😊I’m not a gamer so I can't speak to that. Enjoy!

I don't have a ton of use for Windows but there specific things I do use it for often enough. For a while I've been using an old iMac running Windows 10 and it was perfectly fine for my use. However, I got the itch to upgrade it and take advantage of modern specs like windows 11 and higher resolutions and frame rates. I didnt do a ton of research but when I came across this it seemed like a decent deal. I have no idea what the exact model this is but 12th gen i7, 32gb ram, and 1tb SSD for the price seemed like it was more than enough for what I need it for. Ive had it about a month and it's been solid. It's not the best build quality I've ever seen but I wasn't really expecting that at this price. Ive been having a good time learning Windows 11 and getting it customized, and there haven't been any operational issues or slow downs. Im still an Apple guy and still much prefer my Mac but if you're a tinkerer there are just always things you come across that you'll need a PC for. So for that type of use this is a sold choice when not wanting to go nuts with costs or specs. A good balance of price, specs, and performance, I think.

Years ago I only bought MSI mainboards to build my own systems, but somehow got sidetracked to Asus, (Big mistake.)MSI made a comeback with my trust while providing reliable quality and now my two MSI mini ITX NAS systems both run a water cooled i5 cpu with 64 Gb ram, 10 Gb fiber network, and Truenas Scale. The Cubi Professional is no exception in quality. It's quiet, fast, reliable, and stays cool.I'm using the Thunderbolt port for my "Express 4M2" NVMe external storage, and the storage unit has Thunderbolt pass-through which allows a Solo 10G SFP+ fiber network connection. This compliments my Homelab/Office 10 Gb network with really great speeds.I haven't found any cons yet, but time will tell. I do wish MSI had included the external on/off cable button, but it's absolutely not a deal breaker. This little unit replaced an older HP laptop with ease.I'm very satisfied and hope this Cubi Professional unit lasts for a long time.

I love this computer. Comparable in size to a tablet so it takes up less room than a laptop. Very responsive.

After a couple other computers that had issues out of the box, I tried this MSI mini computer. It was on sale, it has a tiny foot print, and had pretty good specs (at least to the non geeky people who know a lil bit about computers)Quick setup out of the box, updated quickly, and runs fast! I'm definitely a fan of MSI computers now

Purchased this computer February 8th 2025. Did not get it set up until May. It worked for a few weeks then would only boot to BIOS. Called MSI, they diagnosed as a hard drive issue but said they did not install the drive, it was PConlineus, so that is not under warranty with them. Have tried reaching out to PConlineus via Amazon and email with no response.

Nice little machine. I use to build computers but have in the last few years went for a small footprint. The power draw is low when it is in standby mode and the performance is great. I wouldn't say it is a gaming machine but for what I do now it works perfect and doesn't eat up much space.

This little PC had me skeptical at first but let me tell you this little dude is powerful and fast! I mean I wouldn’t expect anything less from MSI but that’s besides the point.I use this in my shop connected to my TV it runs YT, Spectrum TV, Fusion360 and Google Chrome with no issues!For this small package that’s a lot of power especially rendering those 3D designs I didn’t think it would handle it but it does excellent!If you’re looking for a compact powerful pc I’d highly recommend this one especially for the price. I did want to try running FS25 on it to see how it would game but I haven’t had the time to do so yet.I didn’t open it up to check the internals but the instructions said something about a NVMe drive SSD that needed to be installed thankfully I powered mine up and it was ready to go out the box but it showed how to install the drive so I imagine it would have been super simple.
