Zen 2 is cheap... but is it still relevant? | NiPoGi / Acemagic AM06 Pro
Testing the £250 Ryzen 5 5500U-powered AM02 Pro Mini PC in gaming, 3D rendering & video editing
Thanks to Acemagic for supplying the review unit.
NiPoGi offer some of the lowest priced mini PCs around right now, including this AM06 Pro. One of the ways they can afford to do this is by using economy APUs built on older architectures - in this case, AMD's 2020-era Zen 2, previously found in Ryzen 3000 and 4000 series chips. Which is great for AMD, NiPoGi, and their partner brand Acemagic, but does it mean you - the customer - still get a decent value PC?
