Another solid video I do feel your pain though trying to benchmark AI is extremely difficult but keep up the great work have a good one and I'll catch you on the next one.

Very nice Video as always Sir. Keep it up.

Hi Juan! Do you know if this unit, or any mini-pc for that matter, can be connected to (and powered by) a docking station like Lenovo's or Caldigit's? Thanks!!

having parts from well known companies is a big + for me, really tempted to get a mini pc even tho i have 7800x3d 4090 desktop

I can't always say they will include those parts, depending on component pricing it might change, but it was a nice surprise to see opening up the case. It's crazy to think this system is as powerful as it is, when at full load it's pulling about a third what my GPU can draw in my workstation.

With Juan, it's in the Bag, and he Nell-s it.

I got an Aoostar Gem10 2 months ago and I'm really happy with it. These minipcs have come a long way in just a couple of years. The 780m APU is plenty fast for light/med-light gaming and the 8 core AMD processors (mine has the 7840hs) are strong af for an average user. Mine has an Oculink port, too, so I can always upgrade the GPU to something fancy if I need to.

Awesome mini server for home lab 👌🏽

I turned a 5800H into headless media server. It's AWESOME.

8:14 resolve's neural engine plugins like depth map, or object tracking wow, where else can NPU help? both above seem matrix manipulation tasks; but what _are_ other examples of that? 8:22 those NPU based plugins are now faster with NPU than even on powerful processors without NPU

I just bought the Beelink SER8 that has the Ryzen 7 8845 processor in it after watching this. Mini pcs are hot stuff now.

But practically unusable with the fan noise, that these new powerful pcs produce.

At this point, I think all these Mini PC companies are just trying to see how small they make their product and still outperform Juan's old system 😂😂😂

Yea and its good for consumers. Now we just need to make sure that this type of product is correctly portrayed to the market segment that could benefit from it 👌🏿 ​@@SomeGadgetGuy

Since you mentioned average wifi reception, could you suggest a good external wifi card to be rigged as a accessory.

I've been using this on my older NUC for a bit, and it's been solid. amzn.to/3xazXQv Just really depends on your floor plan or what you need. Maybe finding a newer AX instead of AC router mihht help a little, but I don't think there are a lot of USB options that are a lot faster than AC1900 without spending A LOT.

In addition to this AI Mini PC, we will be releasing 3 other computers waiting for you to discover!

Looking forward to it.

can we change wifi to ssd to get oculink?

Thanks for your review. I hope one of the future 8000 'HX' AMD Ryzen 9 processors include the Radeon 780M. The 7945HX has amazing CPU performance, but only the 610M. The doubled core count and the 64MBs of L3 cache in the 7945HX is probably why a better GPU was not included. The 8945HS (with half the core count) is nowhere close to the 7945HX CPU performance. I briefly tested a new iPad Pro with the Apple M4 and it had Speedometer 2.0 performance over 500, but another person noted a 616 score with (undoubtedly) a better model.

USD 899 for a 32GB setup and 2TB HDD. Legion Go USD 750 for 16GB and 1TB HDD. Both have the 780M iGPU. I think I'll prefer a portable machine with a screen and battery.

Me too, excellent observation. Plus, the screen is a real beauty.

Hope they offer a bare bones option.

Given that the case is metal, even with the little dipole FPC antenna in there, I bet that's interfering with the reception. It's why apple will make part of the metal case of the Mac mini an antenna or give a clear area to propagate out of

It's such a good looking box but I think you're right. The small port cut out and the bottom panel might not be enough to get better reception.

Thanks for informing us on that hidden Russian piece of software. How do you find it? Can you tell us more about it? Thanks

Nothing to really find. It was an experience pack updated in the Microsoft app store. Ran updates for apps and it was in there.

please test Ollama on it T_T

It’s useless for me if it has a slow internet connection.

Yeah mac mini doesnt seem all that mini anymore. And the benefits of m series chip don't really apply to a desktop pc

Desktop power consumption is a little less precious, but I'm irrationally excited to swap from this Threadripper and work on a device that draws like 1/10th the power.

Mini PCs > All-in-One PCs.

too loud to use on the desk. Like always, companies save money on laptop cooling or mini pc mehh.
