I'd check the details on the first one, because some 16GB RAM Minisforum PCs come with one 16GB stick, which would hurt your performance. Other than that, I don't think the extra power of the 12650H will matter for the tasks you want it, and an extra 16GB of RAM isn't worth the price difference.

Thanks, that's a good point. Based on the videos I have seen online, it looks like 2x 8 gb for the i5 model. I think I'll order it on amazon and return it if it's only one stick.

From some reviews I've seen, You only need to remove 4 screws to access the insides of it, and it's fairly easy to install/replace the RAM or install a 2.5" drive for extra storage. Minisforum even includes a set of extra feet to replace the two you need to remove to find two of those screws.

If you're up to it, you can buy another 16GB stick and upgrade it yourself for less than the price difference between the two models.
