One key thing to pay attention to: 30 day warranty from seller instead of 3 year warranty from Gigabyte.

Hmm, my recently-purchase (within the last year) has a Celeron 4205U in it. I have a feeling, that the CPU in this Brix, is actually a Celeron, and not an i5. Could be wrong, of course, but ... given the price, hmm. Makes you think.

That's not to say that even if it is the Celeron, it's not a bad deal. Big-core CPU, for less (supposedly "New") than most of the Bay Trail Atom Brix units.

Could make a decent little HTPC or Mom desktop.

Ok, I'm wrong, thanks to Intel's confusingly-similar names.

Please note that the Haswell iGPU on this CPU, has had some recent security-related issues (exploits), and the mitigations do lower performance a tad.

Edit: I think that this is a really great deal, easily on par with my DeskMini H110W units, with Kaby Lake G4560 2C/4T CPUs, which incidentally cost me a chunk more than these units in the deal.

OOS sadly now. There's nothing remotely as good as that.
