"Xe graphics eligible"? wtf?

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

This is why Asian scammers should just stick to Google Translate.

I'll throw my (limited) experience in here.

 

The first time I had heard about Geekom as a company was from UFD Tech after their Cannonball for the Cure livestream, where they gave away at least one mini PC donated by Geekom for the event. Shortly after the giveaway (October 20th, 2023; during Geekom's anniversary sale) I ordered their AS 6 model (Ryzen 9 6900HX, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD) for $794.79 (US) after tax. I got it with the intention of replacing my father's garbage HP box that he got from Sam's Club who knows how many years ago.

Even though it took him a couple weeks to actually get to using it, he has not complained about it once. I even had the opportunity a few weeks go to use it a little myself while I was house-sitting and it wasn't loud, nor did I experience any issues.

As for the "Xe Graphics eligible" text, I can't quite wrap my head around what prompted them to put that on there; it even shows up on the comparison chart. Odd.

Thank you for the input, i think I’ll leave the post like this for now since I won’t want anyone to take any risks and maybe lose money

 

you’ve been a great help and very informative, thanks
