just ended my shift and was greeted with a new techdweeb video , great way to start the afternoon

I have no reason to get one of these at the moment, but I love seeing how these are getting better and cheaper all the time

I've got an SER6 that I use to run all my multiplayer servers and that thing is a little tank. Fantastic devices.

Life ain't nothin but A-holes and C-holes.

@@Mustis91 I've been spending most of my time lately with an old NUC made 8 years ago, so even a cheap N100 mini PC would be a big upgrade.

The saving grace of this mini PC in the sea of mini PC's is the integrated AMD 780m GPU. It is going to have the same graphics horsepower as the handheld market.

Okay, Dweeb I gotta tell you you are genuinely funny. Please do not stop your skits. Please get more unhinged! 😂

It's all about the Mac Mini/ Intel NUC form factor. If it is your thing, I guess it's OK. If you do not know what your "thing" is, Best Buy and Micro Center always have entry level gaming laptops on sale with a similar price point and better performance (Dedicated Graphics Card). Same thing applies to pre-built and roll- your -own. I am just happy Tech Dweeb got another free PC. That is all that matters anyway.

The cutaways to our Adventure Time bros warm my heart every time. Currently have an SER5Max running Batocera. It'll run just about anything emulation-wise, not to mention the steam titles that run in linux. Still watched because Beelink has impressed me with their hardware.

I've got a good 2-3 years remaining for my current desktop and I'm definitely leaning towards one of these mini PCs when it's time to upgrade it. I really am tired of paying $300-500 for a "good" video card alone so if the power of the iGPUs keeps up I'm highly tempted to go this route in the future. It's just so much more...minimal

@@TheFTPchannel I've liked GPD for a long time but in terms of price to performance they literally couldn't compete with steam even if they wanted to. Valve could LOSE money on each Steamdeck sale and still be perfectly fine because they make the money back via every game sale. No other company has that luxury

​@@SpongeBob.Ripped thats valid i play a lot of apex and easy anti cheat games plus r6 n stuff so when i tried the steam deck i just wasn't loving i ended up selling it I'm looking at the 2024 mini right now

I like the integrated GPUs that come with Ryzen. I have a Ryzen 5 with the radeon whatever and it is pretty surprisingly decent for a lot of things. If this one can do that well with Cyberpunk, it can definitely run anything I want to run on it just fine. The price point is still a little less than I expect to pay for my eventual desktop replacement, and I have Prime. ;)

The problem isn't that there aren't enough charging cables to feed starving children. It's the charging cable distribution system that needs to change. They are delicious though.

Taste like black licorice!

My last mini pc was a MINISFORUM EM780. So small, so powerful, so cool!

At about the 4 minute mark I had to pause the video at the specs and went "Woah hold on, how much does this thing cost, (clicks link) ... ohh... okay, no wonder." Twice the price of my current computer, after upgrades.

Not gonna lie, that Lithuania stuff got me : D

I would be interested in using this to play VR games with Quest 2. Live For Speed or maybe Microsoft Flight Simulator if possible?

Nice Atari joystick. Been a minute since I last saw one of those.

I can't put my finger on it but that mini PC reminds me of a certain fruit.

You might consider yourself bad at DOOM Eternal, but at least you've gotten further than I did. I only reached the subway and the room just after the jump with two Cacodemons at once. Gave it an hour of trying then uninstalled. :/

I'm a bit of a fan of these 780m mini pcs. I have the 7940HS, but have yet to actually do anything with it other than compare it to my other PCs. The best thing I can say about it is that it's amazingly efficient.

I hear ya about that Doom section. I remember it well, but buck up little camper, we'll conquer that level together. I have a BeeLink in my bedroom and I love it even though I hardly ever use it. And a tip of the hat for the shout-out to that Crucial drive. I want one of those... bad.

I did the same thing with elden ring. I bought the dlc and now I have to remember how to play. This mini PC looks pretty good and the price is really good too.

C-holes are my favorite by far!

I love all Crucial products❤

Good review. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing video as always Dweeb! Everytime I see you review one of those, I think to myself I should pick one up and see if I like 'em, plus this one got all the holes! 🤣

Thanks my dude! I'm constantly amazed at how far these things have come. Crazy to think that you'd need a big desktop PC from not that long ago to compare to tiny things like this!

@Mustis91

Ай бұрын

yeah i think until the next gen igpus are here, it's not really worth it to upgrade.

USB "A-Hole" lol.

this is on my list for this year.

Around back is the heatsink where the air exits. The dust screen is at the bottom just inside the case.

u make me laff.....ty for this.

I was just about to choose between ser7 and ayaneo am02 and ser8 came out pre order in China. I purchased 32g/1T version for €480 which is 40 euro cheaper than the am02. The only negative part from reviews is the WiFi performance so I bought an Intel ax210 wifi card. I'll change it if the WiFi is too bad.

"And ne USB A hole" made me do a mental spittake :')

I just set it up this mini PC is great, I might buy another one

Man, this looks sick. 750 is a bit of a steep price point for me but very nice piece of gear

see if you can find a good deal on the beelink ser 7. same graphics, only slightly slower cpu. been using it everyday for 7-8 months now and its great.

I just ordered it, I opened up a amazon credit card and they sent me an extra 100 dollars gift card that I put towards the mini PC

5:00 HARD cap, tech dweeb, ya know ya can and so can i.

I feel like these types have back doors in the bios/firmware/uefi

Of course he's promoting tiny things with big power. Never give up.

Would this mini be able to run TeknoParrot Light Gun emulation without any issues?

Beelink usual a good PC

Hey Tech Dweeb!!!, you ROCK MAN!!.. love your videos they really are very well done. Literally my favorite channel on KZread!. Would the >> Lossless Scaling (Frame Generation) Tool

Take a look at minis forum... same power, less pricy

TechDweeb once again “put me on game” when it comes to Steam games 😂😂😂 Yeah I’m just going to keep a small 4TB SSD… Duh. Why didn’t I think of that? Like seriously.. I enjoyed the video bro❤

It reminds me of the old mac mini.

Got 2 gaming laptops this year, one higher and one mid range so I'm good but these things are really nice. Just imagine when the cpus get alittle older you'd be able get a 'weak' laptop with these cheap. The laptop form of these cpus reaches the 1000$ mark and more right now so there's no point getting those over a dGPU laptop mid range.

To compare to the AM02, I wonder what you'd get in Witcher 3 at 1080p, balanced FSR, medium settings.

The Minisforum UM790 Pro that I paid $640 for last year has a slightly more powerful processor.

I like the way you say hole instead of port 😁😅

Hmmm seems like a cool little box, won't lie though, kinda would have loved to see the thermal temperature. Just cause it is usually one of the biggest marks against these small boxes, but that's not how you review stuff these days. Seems fairly capable, but yeah even for all that 650$ ouch yeah everything is more expensive today, and you would have a hard time putting a full tower together for the same price, I just find it hard to spend that much on a computer of this size with a limited upgrade path. As stated it is a hard thing to do but if you keep expectations in check then you can put a tower together and still have a upgrade path, but more than likely your going to have to buy used and open box parts

Can you make a video about the best cheap mini pc for retro gaming? Super cheap but plenty of power for consoles up to the ps1, maybe some ps2.

Better performance than the Ayaneo AM02?

The fact this mini pc runs Cyberpunk at basically the same performance of my nassive desktop PC is insane and slightly depressing XD But its also really good cause PC Gamng is getter cheaper and cheaper to get started with now!!

we still eat dvi cables here in lithuania.

Is this better than the Minisforum UM890 Pro?

Hey Tech Dweeb, did you happen to try running Baldurs Gate 3 on this? I've been thinking about getting a mini PC over a standard one as PC gaming is not my primary gaming method, but for me something like BG3 would be a benchmark for what I would want it to play relatively well.

And they’re 15% off right now, under $300 for a Steam Deck is a steal! Less than half the price of this mini PC, and you can use the money you saved to buy a new SSD to upgrade to 2TB

can you try the geekom A8?

Thats a lot of A-holes lol

I just dont understand why you would get this one over the ser 7. it's quite a bit cheaper and the performance is almost the same. ser 8 has the same graphics, only slightly better cpu peformance

What about emulation? How high ya think it can play?

Beelink has stronger ones for cheaper.
