Minisforum MS-03 review: A powerful but flawed AI workstation

At a glance Expert's Rating Pros Very high CPU performance Three 10 Gbit ports (2 × SFP, 1 × RJ45) plus 2. 5 GbE Three M. 2 slots and U. 2 support PCIe slot for expansion cards Two USB4 ports and Wi-Fi 7 Intel vPro for remote management Cons Just one RAM module slows down the integrated graphics Large external power supply Fluctuating, clearly audible fan speed Only one high-speed USB port at the front Our Verdict The Minisforum MS-03 is a compact workstation designed for demanding networking and computing tasks. The Core Ultra 9 386H is fast, and the SSD delivers high transfer rates. Four LAN ports make the computer an attractive option for NAS and virtualization tasks. It is also well-suited for use as a software router. Three M. 2 slots and a PCIe slot provide plenty of expansion potential. Price at time of review This value will
