System Name Bragging Rights
Processor Atom Z3735F 1.33GHz
Motherboard It has no markings but it's green
Cooling No, it's a 2.2W processor
Memory 2GB DDR3L-1333
Video Card(s) Gen7 Intel HD (4EU @ 311MHz)
Storage 32GB eMMC and 128GB Sandisk Extreme U3
Display(s) 10" IPS 1280x800 60Hz
Case Veddha T2
Audio Device(s) Apparently, yes
Power Supply Samsung 18W 5V fast-charger
Mouse MX Anywhere 2
Keyboard Logitech MX Keys (not Cherry MX at all)
VR HMD Samsung Oddyssey, not that I'd plug it into this though....
Software W10 21H1, barely
Benchmark Scores I once clocked a Celeron-300A to 564MHz on an Abit BE6 and it scored over 9000.
Hardly an exciting board but to be honest, 'boring' is a very desirable motherboard quality. I haven't bought a Biostar board since the bad old days but I believe they're okay now. It has the essentials, it looks like it has been built down to a very low price and there's nothing glaringly wrong with it.

This is the sort of thing that is going to pair well with a Ryzen3 8100 and 1650Super in a $400 budget gaming build. Sure, B550 would be nice to have, but at such small budgets a $50 mainboard is going to get the job done about as well as a $100 board, and that $50 difference lets you put a discrete graphics card in for a massive performance boost over any APU/IGP graphics.

It came out today. The latest AMD processors as of...today. All PRs read this way. It didn't say all either.

Looking at the cpu list, there are 3000 series cpus... 3600xt, even. But not higher. Pleased to see that, actually... normally they'll put anything on the support list, lol.

You can. And they do...all the time. The low power cpus are still the latest cpus so they arent wrong. For better or worse, that's common terminology.

Don't hate the player, hate the game. :p
