At SeraphimGate Systems, we've explored quite a few mini PCs over the years - from the budget-friendly GMKTEC NucBox series to the powerhouse Minisforum UN1290, and even built our own Proxmox cluster with these compact machines. While each system has its strengths, we've found the Minisforum NPB6 to be the perfect all-around machine for everyday use. It strikes an ideal balance between performance and practicality that makes it our go-to recommendation for general office and home use. There's just one catch - getting your hands on one can be tricky due to limited availability.
