I’m thinking about buying one of this:
Cpu wise and memory wise it is more than sufficient, but maybe someone else has bad experiences with beelink pc in terms of latency or other red flags.
Or is geekom the way to go?
Thanks
I don’t know about beelink but I have a geekom a7. I like it. Sometimes I have to restart it a few times before starting up but it could be a software issue.
It has plenty of ram and SSD and dpc latency is good enough.

I have the beelink ser 5 max. Maxed out as well. 64 gig of ram and a 2TB M.2 drive. I love mine, it handles just about anything. Synth rig, its my recording studio. Great machine

It is not easy to choose, I am also looking for a mini pc
I have read good reviews on beelink.
Try to take a look at SER8 and review
I will probably buy this
SER9 is the top but also the price
Ive been using a Beelink Ser5. Ryzen 7 5800h. Started with 16gb ram but recently upgraded to 32. It works great, low latency, can handle fairly heavy workloads. I use it for guitar with NAM and can run several instances of NAM together with several instances of Helix Native no issues.

Thanks. I think I’ll buy a geekom with an ryzen 7940H, but I’m glad to hear that it will most likely work out either way.

As written earlier, I have the Geekom A7, which also has the 7940H(S). Works great for me.
That’s the one I’m after. Did you buy this directly from geekom.de? Just to make sure I’m not ripped off.
I’m Dutch, so I waited some months for a good deal, checking regularly between Geekom Germany and Geekom Italy. Mostly Italy has better offers (I bought mine from Italy).
I decided to buy only the PC there and got my other hardware elsewhere (two HDMI monitors, one for home and one for rehearsal room, keyboard/mouse for home), thus not using the accessories they sometimes come with.

Ik ook (so am I). Geekom.de has quite a good deal at the moment, but just want to have confirmation that this is the right site. I found other sites, but those seem fake to me.
Update:
I got the Geekom AE7, (Ryzen 9 7940HS, 32GB). This little monster appears to be able to run a multiple of my workload.
My older laptop (I7-10750H) gets in trouble around 40% cpu in GP. I pushed the AE7 to 60% without any problems.
Just for fun I reduced the audio buffer size to 32 samples@48 KHz. Still no problem.

If you have some time, beat it up properly and report here what settings/workload can this mini PC handle
