    Intel Compute Stick CS125 Computer with Intel Atom x5 Processor and Windows 10 (BOXSTK1AW32SC)

    • really love this stick!so far no problems,easy to setup and runs quickly on typical internet browsing.
    • I prefer the stick over an android streaming box
    • When the CPU struggles (which is basically all the time!), the stick gets warm, and the fan kicks in (yes, even the Atom model has a fan!)
    • My wife sometimes forgets to shut it down, but the stick is not running too hot even after being on a full night, and not noisy (I connected to my bedroom TV, so it didn't wake me up because of the noise).
    • Great stick computer, goes great for kiosk needs

    • Awesome computer stick....
    • No matter how much I tried to optimize the browser and o.s., the stick would struggle to serve up the pages
    • , if you have used the program you know what I'm talking about, but I missed to read on synology website the hardware requirements, so I can't blame the compute stick, for the rest, youtube, Netflix, web browsing, kodi all works flawlessly.
    • Overall at this price point it is a great stick PC
    • Not for everyday computing use, but handy for travel and backup.[UPDATE]After only two months, this stick is worthless
    • It took Intel a second try to make the BEST TV Stick on the Market today
    • The stick was easy to set up.
    • This is an awesome compute stick.

    • Great little compute stick
    • It worked like a charm on a newer TV, however, so I cannot fault the stick.
    • Great Stick PC use it atop my telescope to run all my imaging software and wirelessly connect to
    • but then again a sharp stick in the eye is better than Windows 8
    • This is a great little stick.
