Great little box for Linux
Bought three so far, all running Ubuntu 24.04 without much extra work, except you need to install a fairly new mainline kernel (6.10) for the Bluetooth module to work. (It does work reliably after you do that.)The devices are happy with 96 GB Crucial DDR5 RAM, and seem to have no issues with larger NVMe than they ship with as well.

Mini Computer Support Review Update
The computer doesnât turn on when I press power button. Requesting a replacement. I had to pay for return shipment.UpdateWhen I followed up with the support, I got excellent customer care with prompt follow up, willingness to address my concerns and readily upgraded to XT1 Mega PC. Very pleased with my overall experience with GEEKOM. They also refunded my initial return shipment charges. Because of the positive experience I am upgrading my review to 4 star.

Great Customer Service!
New Update:The new computer barely makes any noise, it is much quieter than the first one I received that died. I now think there must have been a defect with the original, because the one I have now is almost completely silent.New Update:I contacted the company, and they responded by e-mail in about a day. We e-mailed back and forth a few times over the course of several days. I sent them a video showing that my computer was not turning and not lighting up, even though it was plugged in, and they said if I sent mine to an address in CA, they would send me a new one as soon as they received the tracking number on my return – meaning they did not need to wait to receive it, just confirmation I had sent it back. As promised, I received a brand new computer about 2 days later. Excellent customer service!! I am very satisfied.Update:Died after about 55 days. Computer just suddenly shut off one day, never to power back up again. I will see what, if anything, the company does about it.Original Review:I am happy with this purchase, overall. The computer is lightening quick and super small. Excellent performance for the money. I use it for occasional internet browsing.On the down side, it is the loudest computer I have ever owned, and sounds like a little jet engine – the fan is continuously spooling up and down. I will probably move it under my desk and put some books around it or something. I would still recommend it…. just be prepared for the mini jet engine noise…

AE8 great for small desks.
Win11 is ok but most of my development and CAD designs are on Linux.Wish there was a VESA box as my Dell monitors use the VESA mount for the base.Overall very happy so far.

Loving it so far
My previous daily-driver was a mini-PC based on the fabulous AMD 5900HS and I used it happily for a couple of years. When I started, I would do Steam streaming from a bigger GPU box to it and had a Windows Remote Desktop for work, so it was massive overkill for those tasks. I do have Adobe Suite, and of course, those tax ANY machine they are on, but I was reasonably happy with the performance of After Effects and the like. However, as time went by, I found myself playing (or trying to play) more games locally. Earlier this year, my work provided me a laptop that had the same access as my virtual desktop. And with that, I found myself using more and more of the local CPU/GPU resources … and finding them lacking. Don’t get me wrong: I loved my uncluttered desktop space and big screen, but times always change. Was there another mini-PC that could keep my desk looking nice and provide a good performance boost? (Spoiler: Yes!)Enter the GEEKOM AE8 and Ryzen 9 8945HS. I wondered if I could simply swap the NVME up to the more capable box. Sure enough, this was super-easy: Upgrade accomplished! I fired up some of my laggy games, and I am able to regularly get 60 fps now on some of the old ones at 4k. For some newer ones, I had to drop back to 2560 or 1920 resolution, OR I had to fiddle the quality settings to make 4k work. In any case, MUCH more capable than the 5900HS!My one quibble so far is that by swapping the storage, I was not able to find GEEKOM drivers for anything. I can’t find the AE8 on the Support section of their website, for instance, although navigating that site takes more skill than I was willing to put into it. I ended up loading an AMD Adrenaline driver, and that seems to have resolved 90% of the problem. Even so, it is a bit weird to have a model (the AE8) on my desk that doesn’t appear under Support on the company’s website. Hopefully, this is not an issue going forward, but as a lonnnnnnng time “PC guy,” this bothers me enough to hold back a star.

Died after 4 boots.
Computer was only booted 4 times and on the 4th, booted straight to bios. Computer came with windows 11 and yet when attempting to reinstall/repair of windows 11in futile attempt to even check on SSD and perhaps repair windows, install software said computer hardware incapable of supporting windows 11. tried to contact geekom through email and got no response .. tried to use their chat system and sat there for 2 hours before giving up and moving on to other options.

Un fantastico piccolo device. L’ho comprato per mio figlio perché studia fuori cittá e aveva bisogna di un computer facile da portare in giro per giocare e lavorare. Il nuovo microchip é fantastico, 8 cores e 16 threads lo rendono la macchina perfetta per programmare, and la nuova iGPU (raccomando di installare i nuovi driver dal sito di AMD immediatamente) e la memoria in dual channel sono perfette per un videogiochi non troppo tassativi. Anche sotto stress non é troppo rumoroso, e la temperatura massima che abbia registrato si aggira attorno agli 80 gradi dopo averci giocato per un po’, altrimenti la macchina resta praticamente silenziosa. A casa dormo nella stanza affianco e non sento alcun rumore dalle ventoline. Sicché ha due porte thunderbolt, é possibile connettere fino a 4 monitors (2 HDMI, 2 type c) oppure 3 + connettere una eGPU (scheda grafica esterna). Aggiorneró la recensione una volta che mio figlio sistema quest’ultima configurazione.Il computer viene spedito con Windows 11 attivato semplice e minimale, senza inutile software esterno, ma raccomando di provare una qualunque distribuzione Linux moderna (ho provato Fedora) sicché funziona perfettamente, anche se ci sono meno videogiochi supportati.Un pochino costoso rispetto ad un grosso computer ma ne vale la pena se volete qualcosa di piccolo, silenzioso e abbastanza potente da poterci giocare.

Solid build quality, nice finish. Very small, compact with lots of ports. It also has an IR sensor so theoretically ehome remote capable – not tried yet.W11 preinstalled, once configured and updated it’s ready to go. Very fast!! But not suitable for high end gaming. (Asphalt 9 still runs smoothly.)I added my own ssd drive to it as well.Perfect for office, family pc, or even as a home theater pc. Plays/streams 4k videos nicely. I use it for audio/video editing, Photoshop, office work etc.Due to compact size the cpu temp is always above 40-45 Celsius, even if idle. Under low load or when idle the fan is very quiet, nearly silent. I wouldn’t tell if the device is on without looking at the led button. You can watch 4k movies at night without the fan disturbing.Under load the cpu temp can rise above 65-70 Celsius and the fan is annoyingly noisy. The solution is to disable turbo boost from the Bios or from Power mgt: with this the cpu will not overclock and not overheat.. so the fan remains always silent. The system remains still usable and very fast, you cannot really notice any performance difference with everyday usage.Generally I am very happy with it, esp. with the performance and connectivity options. Oh, and Ubuntu runs also perfectly on it :)I can highly recommend it.Update:If you connect this to a smart TV via hdmi output, it will break the CEC control and ARC feature on the TV. In my case it’s a Samsung 4k TV. This means, if you have other devices connected to the TV (AV-Receiver, sky box, fire tv etc) the unified remote control and audio return channel feature will stop working. This is because the MiniPC’s hdmi port does not support CEC and it scrambles the signal. The same issue can occur when connecting the minipc directly to an AVR via hdmi.There are 2 solutions for this problem:1. Use a small cec-less hdmi male-female adapter on either end of the hdmi cable (between minipc and TV). This basically stops the cec signal.2. Use another port to connect the minipc with the TV (with an adapter). i.e. mini display port to hdmi, or usb-c to hdmi. The picture quality is the same, but these ports do not have CEC control. Although you might get different refresh rates and hdr controls, depending on the cables/adapters used. Buy good quality cables supporting high resulutions and refresh rates!No CEC troubles when connecting to a normal pc monitor (via hdmi).

Ho acquistato il Mini PC GEEKOM IT11 dal momento che cercavo una soluzione compatta e che non occupasse troppo spazio sulla scrivania.Già la confezione mi ha colpito, estremamente curata nel dettaglio. Comprende il mini PC, l’alimentatore, un cavo HDMI, il supporto VESA per poterlo agganciare dietro al monitor, una guida rapida multilingua, compreso l’italiano, e una comoda e morbida custodia in tessuto per il trasporto.Il mini PC IT11 è robusto, compatto e molto bello esteticamente. Dotato di tutta la connettività più avanzata e disposta in modo funzionale, nascondendo tutti i cavi nella parte posteriore e rendendo disponibile nella parte frontale una presa USB 3.2 e una Type C, oltre al jack per cuffie e microfono.Appena acceso e collegato alla rete si è portato rapidamente, in pochi minuti e con pochi semplici passi, all’ultimo aggiornamento di Windows 11.Il mini PC è veloce e potente e permette di gestire molte applicazioni contemporaneamente. Si avvia in pochi secondi ed è silenzioso. Solo in presenza di carico di lavoro interviene la ventola che rimane comunque molto silenziosa: un leggerissimo fruscio che non dà assolutamente fastidio.Attraverso un hub USB, comperato separatamente e collegato ad una porta usb posteriore, ho connesso tutti i dispositivi che sono stati correttamente rilevati.Internamente è possibile espandere la memoria RAM DDR4 e aggiungere un secondo disco SSD.Sono davvero molto soddisfatto del PC, sia per le prestazioni che per il prezzo.

Auf der Suche nach einem vollwertigen Mini PC fürs Home-Office mit Fokus auf Foto- und Videobearbeitung bin ich auf den Geekom IT11 gestoÃen.Nach einiger Zeit intensiver Recherche im Internet, war mir klar, dass ich gegenüber eines normalen Desktop PCs keine Abstriche machen möchte und Prozessor-Leistung satt brauche. Gerade im Bereich Video- und Fotobearbeitung ist man doch sehr von der Leistung des PCs abhängig.Dank der Black Friday Aktion ist mir die Entscheidung dann doch sehr einfach gefallen.Vorwort:Die gemachten Angaben zum Gerät entsprechen meiner persönlichen Erfahrung.Diverse Spezifikationen des Mini PCs wurden aus dem Handbuch und von der Herstellerseite entnommen.Versand und Verpackung:Der Verkauf durch die Firma âGEEKOM Store EUâ über Amazon verlief fehlerfrei und schnell.Das Paket wurde mir Amazon typisch sehr gut verpackt zugestellt.Beschädigungen am Paket gab es keine.Lieferumfang:Im Lieferumfang befinden sich:- Geekom IT11 Mini-PC- 1x Netzteil mit Stecker (65W Adapter) 1,5 Meter Länge- 1x 1 Meter HDMI Kabel- 1x VESA-Halterung um den PC an die Rückseite des Monitors/TVs zu montieren- 1x Tütchen mit Schrauben zur Befestigung an der VESA-Halterung- 1x Handbuch bebildert in Farbe und mit deutscher Ãbersetzung- 1x Danksagungskarte mit Firmenhistorie- 1x Stoffsack für den sicheren Transport des PCsTechnische Spezifikationen des Geekom IT11:- Prozessor: Intel Core i7 1195G7 Quad Core (8 Threads)- Geschwindigkeit: 4x 2.90GHz (bis 5GHz im Turbo)- Grafikchip: Intel Iris Xe @ 1400MHz Boost- Arbeitsspeicher: 16GB Crucial DDR4-3200 MHz (Micron)- SSD/NVME: 512GB Lexar NM620- AbmaÃe: 11,5cm x 11cm x 5cm (LxBxH)- Gewicht: 565g- Betriebssystem: Windows 11 Pro 64 BitKonnektivität:- Bluetooth v 5.2- Intel 1 Gbit Ethernet LAN- Intel Wi-Fi 6Anschlüsse:- 3x USB 3.2 Gen 2- 2x USB Type C (USB 4.0)- 1x SD-Kartenleser- 1x 3.5mm Kopfhöreranschluss (Klinke)- 1x RJ45 Gigabit-Ethernet-Anschluss (LAN)- 1x HDMI 2.0-Anschluss- 1x Mini-Displayport-Anschluss- 1x DC-Buchse- 1x Power Taste- 1x Kensington LockEine detaillierte Ãbersicht der Anschlüsse findet man auch in der im Lieferumfang befindlichen Anleitung.Inbetriebnahme und Einrichtung:Die Inbetriebnahme und Einrichtung des Geekom IT11 Mini PCs ist Kinderleicht.Einmal den PC angeschlossen und angeschaltet wird man direkt mit dem Windows 11 Einrichtungsassistenten begrüÃt.Nach einer kurzen Einrichtungsphase von etwa 10 Minuten, kann man auch schon direkt loslegen.Sollte man den PC im vorher mit LAN oder WiFi verbunden haben, sollte man noch etwas Zeit für die Updates mit einplanen.Das vorinstallierte Windows 11 Pro hat direkt alle Treiber erkannt und es gab während der kurzen Installationsdauer keinerlei Probleme.Verarbeitungsqualität:An der Verarbeitung gibt es wirklich nichts auszusetzen. Das Gehäuse weist keine SpaltmaÃe auf und ist auch sonst sehr hochwertig verarbeitet. Die zusätzlichen Mesh-Seitenwände sorgen dafür, dass die Komponenten ausreichend Luft bekommen.Allgemeine Leistung:Vom Anschalten bis zum Windows Willkommensbildschirm vergehen keine 15 Sekunden und der Geekom IT11 ist direkt einsatzbereit.In meiner Konfiguration mit dem I7 und dem 512GB NVME Speicher öffnen die Programme blitzschnell. Es gibt quasi gar keine Ladezeiten beim öffnen der Programme mehr.Benchmarks:Für den Prozessor und die Grafikeinheit habe ich 3DMark verwendet.Im 3D Time Spy erreichte der Geekom IT11 1395 Punkte.Im CPU-Z internem Benchmark erreicht der Intel Core i7 1195G7 617,5 Punkte im Single Core Benchmark und 2450 Punkte im Multi Core Benchmark.Bemerkenswert ist die Single-Core Leistung die sogar knapp über der des Intel Core i9 10850K liegt.Der Multi-Core Benchmark fällt nicht so hoch aus, da letztendlich die Leistung durch die hohen Temperaturen limitiert wird. Dies ist angesichts der kleinen Bauform aber völlig verständlich.Leistung der Lexar NM620:Hierzu habe ich einen Crystal Disk Mark â Benchmark durchgeführt.Beim lesen von GroÃen Datenmengen erreicht die NM620 knapp 3300 MB/s.Die Schreibraten liegen bei 560 MB/s. Nicht sehr hoch aber immer noch auf SSD Niveau.Bei kleineren Daten sinkt die Leistung dann auf 77MB/s im Lesen und 222 MB/s im schreiben ab.Normalerweise sind die Leseraten generell immer höher als die Schreibraten. Ich gehe davon aus, dass hier in Zukunft noch ein Treiber/Firmware update für die NM620 geben wird.Spiele:Was Spiele betrifft kann ich keine Aussagen treffen. Sollte ich dies in Zukunft noch testen, wird es hier noch ergänzt.Lautstärke und Temperaturen:Wirklich störend laut wird der IT11 nie. Unter Volllast dreht er dann doch etwas auf aber das Lüftergeräusch ist keinesfalls nervig oder störend.Die Temperaturen im Leerlauf liegen um die 45°C.Unter Vollast (3DMark) habe ich maximal 95°C gemessen. Hier ist aber wieder zu beachten, dass dies ein Stabilitätstest ist und diese Last bei normalen Arbeiten nicht anfällt.Beim Rendern von Bildern/Videos lagen die maximalen Temperaturen bei 85°C.Leistungsaufnahme:Ich bin wirklich erstaunt wie wenig der Geekom IT11 verbraucht.Im Leerlauf (IDLE) verbraucht der PC zwischen 15-20W, je nach Auslastung. Im absoluten Leerlauf mit eingeschaltetem Energiesparplan sind sogar minimal 9,5W Messbar gewesen.Unter Volllast sieht die Geschichte nun etwas anders aus.Im 3DMark Time Spy habe ich 46W maximal 51W gemessen. Dies ist aber ein absoluter Ausnahmezustand und Belastungstest. Unter Normalbedingungen erreicht man diese Last kaum bis gar nicht.Fazit:Jeder, der einen kleinen Mini PC sucht aber nicht auf die CPU-Leistung eines Desktop PCs verzichten will, sollte hier zuschlagen.Ich bin mit der Leistung, Lautstärkeentwicklung und dem geringem Energieverbrauch absolut zufrieden bzw. sogar positiv Ãberrascht worden.Zudem ist der PC Platzsparend und einfach zu transportieren.Positiv:- sehr gute Verarbeitungsqualität- super Leistung für die GröÃe- sehr kleine AbmaÃe, passend für jeden noch so kleinen Schreibtisch- Anschlussvielfalt (USB 3, Type C, Card Reader)- erweiterbar (Arbeitsspeicher, NVME SSD)Negativ:- sehr hohe Hitzeentwicklung bei Last die der kleinen Form geschuldet ist.
