Maybe he had an influx of engineering samples that came in or bad batches.
Only kidding, $25 off for the 5825U. From $435 to $410. Every bit helps.

Looking up those DIN / panel mount 12V PSUs, they're still 86-88%, which is about the same efficiency I've seen for decent quality wall / plug-in adapters. If you were to run a long 12V cable from the electrical panel to your PC though, it would reduce the efficiency quite a bit because of voltage drop / sag from cable resistance. A 50ft 16AWG cable with a 3A load would have a voltage drop of about 10%.
I am not even sure the power supply I got with my unit is a genuine LiteON or a rebranded something else. There is no reference online for the part number I've got (PA-1480-5M04), also the sticker (see my post on the previous page) is significantly different from other models I can find online. I've only found a sale on taobao for what looks like the same psu I've got.

Possibly an OEM part?
looking for similar models, I've come across the PA-1041 on their site, which is a 12V 40W device rated at 88% efficiency. I do have a variable power load, I'll try mine with at a few different current levels.
Both my switches also operate on 12V power, so I could theoretically use a single power supply instead of having multiple bricks in the network rack. Meanwell does make some really nice devices, have a look at the HEP Series. The 100W version does does offer a 92% efficiency and 98% power factor at 12V (part number HEP-100-12A). Only downside is the price, lowest I've found it is 90€. A more reasonable (but still solid) choice could be the HRP-100-12 wich is still 87.5% efficient, active PFC, 12V 100W at around 50€.

I was thinking the same thing after seeing a few of those "Lite-On" supplies posted here. Chinese sellers are notorious for slapping stickers on cheap PSUs to make them look legit. I notice the sticker on yours has a "Level V" efficiency rating, which has been superseded by Level VI in all the newer reputable brand PSUs I see.
J6413 is 11th gen vs 10th gen N5105. J6413 will draw less power and is more efficient. Default clock speeds the N5105 is 200mhz faster, but old microarchitecture. The microarchitectural difference should offset the extra 200mhz. Turbo frequency is the same for both.
GPU graphics the N5105 will perform better. It has more shader and execution units. This should make it better for GPGPU based applications.
If I had to buy a box to run a router, I'd get a i226-v NIC with the J6413. For the do all package, get the 5825U or 5800U. Expensive, but very much worth it considering how much performance you get for the price and the efficiency of Zen 3.
The only thing I would do with the fanless boxes is add a 140mm fan on the bottom. Going with 140mm over 120mm allows it to push more air and is generally more quite than a smaller fan.
Thanks for the writeup. it's educational to see that the "good" chassis doesn't necessarily have any better contact with the CPU.
I've run a quick test on the psu that came with the unit. This one is unlikely a genuine LiteON device. Efficiency stabilizes above 10W at around 80-82% and never goes higher. OCP hits at 3.95A, so I expect this to be a 3A or lower psu instead of a 4A as declared. My mains voltage during the test was 238V.
The psu is also an evident case of rebranded chinese stuff, if in the future I'll buy a meanwell PSU for the whole rack I'll gladly tear apart and take a look at this one.
The assembly quality is garbage as usual. The chassis looks good but effectively the assembly itself lacks. Probably they had spacers ready for another model and used the same + a goop of thermal paste. In light load you might not notice it, with higher draw (especially considering this device can hit above 30W in) it will definitely throttle.
The psu is also an evident case of rebranded chinese stuff, if in the future I'll buy a meanwell PSU for the whole rack I'll gladly tear apart and take a look at this one.
Happy Halloween Ladies & Gents! 
Looks like Loksing is promoting a newer version of the N5105/N6005 with four new upgrades! Including booting from the TF Card slot now!! These products change constantly - so roll the roulette wheel and take your chances . . . technology marches on . . .

I've been using the Ryzen drive since the beginning of October and it has been working perfectly: Ryzen 5825U + 32GB DDR4 3200 + 2 nvme 256 and 500GB
Too animal performance!

Ambient temperature around 30°C:
At idle, it is around 33~36°C
At full load, it is around 85~87°C
When at idle, up to 55°C the fan is completely off and after this temperature, it increases its rotation.
I confess that up to 68°C it is inaudible (at least in the place where my equipment is installed), already in full load, it is very audible yes.
Remembering that I didn't upgrade the thermal paste, I intend to buy Kryonaut and repaste it.
I'm using Windows Server 2022, running 8 VM's on Hyper-V
Great to hear someone finally got one!! Where did you buy it from? Did you buy barebone? How long did it take to get it? Questions, questions . . . Happy Halloween
Bought at CWWK Store.Great to hear someone finally got one!! Where did you buy it from? Did you buy barebone? How long did it take to get it? Questions, questions . . . Happy Halloween
It arrived in about 12 days.
Version with 8/256GB
THX! You located in Europe? 12 days sounds quite quick . . .
If you 've been using it since beginning October - then you must have ordered mid-September (before I knew they even existed and I was looking seriously at the 1165G7 models . . . )I pre-ordered it, to be honest heheTHX! You located in Europe? 12 days sounds quite quick . . .
I live in Brazil, so it was really fast.
Yea i'm pretty much satisfied with the meanwell, the n5105 is 4-5 feet away doesnt get much better than this in my case.
