I have the Topton Mini PC with the 1135G7 Intel CPU and I came up a nice trick to reduce the temperature. Apart from adding a (ghetto) USB fan on the top I also removed the front and back panels to increase the airflow (and dust) inside the unit. Previously with just the fan the NVME drive would...

Hello, I am trying to find out how to use the serial console. I am on Windows 10 and when I connect an ethernet cable to the com port and my PC nothing seems to happen. I enabled showing hidden devices in device manager but no COM ports show up. Any help please?

I had an issue where if I assigned all the RAM to the single VM that I planned to run originally. It would crash when running qm start.

I have a rather interesting problem which I am sure has a perfectly reasonable explanation (not). So basically I have a Topton but with the i1135G7 and the i225V 4 port ethernet. My problem is that if I passthrough port 1 or 4 (enp2s0, enp5s0) to a proxmox VM it fails with a message "Can't go...

With that said let me say thanks to everyone here who helped me not have a ~300euro brick on my desk :p

Cheers man, I figured it out in the end. I don't know if you noticed my edit. It had to do with the memory. I had assigned all the memory (16GB out of 16GB) to the VM and when I added the NIC pass through the host crashed soon after booting. Because I had it set to auto start at boot this meant...

Thanks for this it renewed my hope that it can be fixed. Turns out that the problem starts when I passthrough a NIC as a PCI device in the OPNsense VM. Don't know what's going on there. Changing the kernel and updating the microcode probably didn't make a difference. Update: From various...

My motherboard has GF-1449NP(i5-1135G7)-12 Ver 1.1 written on it and I am having issues with Proxmox. Another user (@bndr) had similar issues with it. The device works the first time you install proxmox and after power cycling it restarts every couple of minutes. You can boot into recovery mode...

I got the Topton miniPC with 4 ports and an additional COM port with an Intel i5-1135G7and I have installed Proxmox on it. It works perfectly the first time you boot it (now that I got a massive USB Noctua fan on top of it) but if you powercycle it just starts restarting after a couple of...

Hmm I got this unit and first thing I did was to replace the thermal paste and I have also ordered a USB 5V Noctua fan. I installed Proxmox on it and it keeps restarting every few minutes. This is persistent even after starting from cold. The problem is that even the login screen seems like it...

I am in a very similar boat. Trying to find something that will be good enough to run OPNSense with 4 ethernet ports (Intel preferably).

Nope no drilling no nothing. As I said if you have the space for the case then an added bonus is that you can fit a ridiculous amount of drives inside and it is very modular so you can modify the case to your needs. The only thing that I had a bit of trouble with and haven't been bothered to fix...

Hi, If you are interested in a tower, you can fit EE-ATX motherboard easily on a Fractal Design Define 7 XL (Speaking from experience), It is massive though.
