I hope this processor finds it's way into a miniPC such as the ones sold by Beelink or minisforum. Having a quiet but beefy tiny desktop with 8cores/16threads tucked away out of sight would be a superb machine to have, and would also make me consider ditching any laptop.

They both already have models with these chips. Check out UM790 from Minisforum
Oh thanks for pointing this out! I completely missed that, but a quick googling led to a couple of reviews posted just a few days ago.

Very impressive machine, and quite affordable. Bonus points for Minisforum for offering barebones versions.

Beelink also offers barebone version if you live close enough to them. I'd prefer minisforum though, according to STH and other user reviews it's way quieter and cooler, and doesn't have the troublesome magnetically attached power cable.

The only reason I didn't return my Beelink GTR7 is there was a deal and I got it for only ~$370 (barebones).
