It appears graphics is China's weakest point. 4K 30hz (not sure if it's when hooked up to one or two monitors) is a significant limitation. Around 7 years old Intel igpus managed to get 60hz. I know the education market doesn't need 4k, but other minipcs can do much better at this price point. This is more than acceptable for government and education markets, but medical can benefit from higher resolutions.
