Re: Cheap CNCPC that meets requirements: Lenovo Think Center M92P for Acorn <updated model M93P>
I use the CNC PCs only for CNC, nothing else, for CAM and other stuff I have a very fast Z-Book.
M93 Tiny and Touchmonitor is more expensive than a AIO in Germany and I like to have less cables running in the workshop...

Re: Cheap CNCPC that meets requirements: Lenovo Think Center M92P for Acorn <updated model M93P>
Im looking for a 2nd PC for my mill build. Anyone running the M93P model as per the update in the title. There is a lot of them on Ebay RN but they are twice as much as I paid for my M92P @ 100.00 bones. wonder if its worth it. I was going to go with 16Gigs of ram Vs my M92 has 8.

I found those also from a refurb site here in Germany. Seems like the perfect setup for a CNC machine. Are you still happy with yours?suntravel wrote: ↑Sat Feb 19, 2022 12:23 pm Installed a new PC for my next Acorn project, CNC conversion of my lathe with servos
Lenovo ThinkCentre M93z with 23" Touchscreen
Intel Core i5-4590S
8GB Ram / 256GB SSD
Got it refurbed for 400 bucks
Tested on my mill first, very easy to swap CNC12 to an other PC, runs perfect

I buy refurbished units with a warranty and a clean install of win10pro. I then do all the updates for M$ and Lenovo drivers. Then I remove all not required for CNC operations

I also buy refurbished pc’s with a warranty and fresh in stall of Win10 Pro. I buy mine locally from a company that refurbishes surplus computers and I have a relationship with the company. He ONLY installs Win10 Pro and nothing else. I install Acrobat reader, NotePad++ and TeamViewer only. Nothing else on my CNC PC.
