The Ayaneo Retro Mini 2 is one of the most adorable PC's I've ever had in my studio. It's small, quiet, and if you grew up in the 80s, know exactly where its design inspiration comes from. But is there any substance behind the pretty face?
But first... What am I drinking???
WELCOME BACK TO MIXOLOGY MARCH!
Today's drink is the Hot Toddy... specifically Jeffrey Morgenthaler's recipe for it.
8oz Apple Cider (no hotter than 160F/71C)
2oz 100 Proof Rye Whiskey
1 'dallop' of butter
1 Cinnamon stick
1 wedge slice zest SWATH of Orange

one of my military mates, a purple heart combat medic veteran, wants to do his next build in the Terra. he loves the classy look of the wood against the metal finish, and i agree. once he's able to swing some parts, i'll be posting the build in the Discord channel for everyone there to see!
Will we EVER witness the CLASH of White-Hair-Jeff and Red-Shirt-Jeff?
Dunno about that, but this guy looks like Ram Jam lead singer (Black Betty)
Only if it's Jeff gerlings red shirt Jeff
@@theatermusic87is there any other Red Shirt Jeff?
Wholeheartedly approve of the dollop of butter! If it's good enough for hot buttered rum, it's good enough for a hot toddy.
17:49 I fuckin' _lived_ for that Alpine Instant Cider when I was a tween. Its better than any other instant cider out there and better than more than a few bottled ciders. Imagine my shock when I rented warehouse space just a few blocks from their HQ.
Side note: they used to (and I think they still) make a hard-to-find instant eggnog that is pretty solid if you're into that kind of thing.
So all the TDP and Turbo settings are hidden in a proprietary windoze app rather than unlocked in the BIOS...
What happens when you run linux ?
@CraftComputing Can't wait to see your update on the dual epic servers!
On my MSI laptop when I go in the "Advanced" settings section of the BIOS and I press at the same time LALT RCTRL RSHIFT F2, I get access to many settings related also to overclocking. I would try this combination on the Retro Mini 2, it could solve your issues with the persistance of the TDP settings. Congratulations for this amazing channel!
boldly bringing a screen where no screen has gone before
Great review as always. I've been looking for something low power to act as a home server in a tiny house. I think this will fill both the "Smart TV" aspect with Plex, etc... and run off solar. Thanks!
I am thinking, this is also a very capable and cute home lab pc.
ooo loved the fractal ad
agreed! jeff is nuts with his ads! and i also dig that little fractal box, i wanna do a build in one sometime
In my head I'm hearing "The world looks mighty good to me, cuz NES is all I see ... whatever it is I think I see, becomes a NES to me."
Hey Jeff, have you thought about looking at the Azrock rack or super micro 1U AM5 or Intel 1700 socket servers?
Curious if a cluster of these could replace some of smaller clusters aging VMware platforms
I just can't get behind the price of these super SFF pc's. The cheapest (non-barebone) variant will be $900 (CAD) after the sale.
Barebones is a better option anyways. Choosing your own RAM and storage means you avoid the unknown/unreputable brands which tend to come in these, and can even buy used to save a lot of money.

just like with laptops, you pay for ultra tiny performance packages. if you're ok with huge boxes, then skip this. but if you need something itty bitty, you gotta fork over the moolah
I'd love if they made a famicom version to match an 8bitdo keyboard I got.
How do they get the alcohol into those packets?
8:27 Ahh, I love it when my CPU gets hotter than the beginning of the universe.
This PC is a good option for a 249 USD retail price for the finished version.
Too bad they didn't make the display tiltable...
Does AMD Ryzen Master not work with these chips?
You were talking about AMD not making software to control their CPU's, isn't that what Ryzen Master is? Or does it not work for these APU's?
i kinda wanna test this on my kid's gaming laptop. he's got a nice ryzen chip in it
It doesn't allow to change the TDP as far as I know.
No bots wtf im early
Unless you're just a bot. :sus:
I r bot
And as useless as a bot!
Cool but pricey.
itty bitty costs extra
My God, 4th comment =)
