Early Verdict
The Minisforum HX77G is an exciting spur from the Mini PC path.
It offers some upgrade options and impressive interconnectivity, though it is larger than a typical NUC enclsoure.
These chips can deliver desktop processor performance but with frugal power management and minimum fan noise.

Where things get interesting is what Minisforum did with that extra volume.
For American customers, those three SKUs are$629, $779 and $779.

Sadly, this machine is too big to be VESA mounted.
The front and back provide an abundance of external ports.
This selection includes no less than seven USB ports, with two that are USB 4.0/Thunderbolt flavour.

What isnt easy to access is the graphics card.
And AMD has superseded this design with the RX 7600M.
That design is marginally quicker but also uses the RDNA 3 architecture.
