Got mine last week and I couldn't be happier. It's quiet, and stable. Without any tweaking at all, I consistently get over 33000 on cinebench. The temps will creep up to the mid 70's every once and a while. Loving it!
I've been really happy with mine as well as a work machine. No temperature or noise concerns even forcing 75W TDP mode paired with a noctua fan. The 96GBs of 5200Mhz Mushkin Redline ram I chose just worked at full speed but time will tell how Minisforum supports this platform with bios updates.
@@linuxpirate how much are these? Also is this build blunder friendly? Like can this handle video rendering and 3d?
@@drfuzion6779 $519 on sale currently. Yes, without a doubt (obviously you know your needs on the 3D side (gpu) but as far as raw CPU power you're set). For my work I use the Radeon iGPU to drive two displays and then pass an Nvidia T1000 to a virtual machine for Nvidia work.
@@drfuzion6779 And yes, as long as you've got a GPU capable of whatever 3D work you need as the iGPU is rather weak. I use the iGPU to drive two monitors and pass an Nvidia GPU to a virtual machine for other work.
Would the step down R7 version be good for 1080/60 gameplay?
Love the build, really looks great. My favorite part is when that npc falls and died randomly in 2077 13:13
gmod be like
The 7945HX is the most efficient and fastest mobile chip on the market rn. Would love to see it with some faster and low latency RAM though.
As far as I understand it you can't currently go faster without soldered LPDDR5, no?
@@linuxpiratewhich makes some configs with tight timing 5600, soldered lpddr5 7500+, on a 78/7940hs platform the better overall choice because the 7745hx does not support faster memory, that coupled with the low tdp limit of 100w limits what a 16c zen4 chip can do. The only advantage is cache and more threads for background tasks when not using all cores. 8 cores with more power might be more useful on mobile than 16c power limited.
@@linuxpirate CAMM2 has just been ratified by JEDEC, the RAM standards organisation, so we should see a general shift away from the inferior SO-DIMM standard towards CAMM2.
Alternatively, Minisforum should've just stuck to standard UDIMMs instead.
Got mine Today, your build is exactly what I had planned so its great to see that the gpu goes flawless with this as a gaming pc. I even ordered the same ram.
My case is a Cougar Dust 2 tho.
Definitely gonna be getting this build here soon😮💨 love the small form factor
Your channel is a dream come true. I've become a mini ITX, mini pc, and handheld PC enthusiast thanks to you. Keep up the amazing work!
if you want product presentations, yes, a dream come true, but if you want reviews, this is not the right channel
He hawks a lot of overpriced chinese shit because he gets everything for free.
This is actually good hardware shown in the video. Especially for the price. But half his videos are full of junk.
For what it is, it certainly eat everything that could be thrown at it and impressed me way more than many of the other larger PC's that have been featured.
This is legit my most favourite build
Price overview would always add to the value of the build for the viewer, thanks great video....
This little build here... _perfect_ for LAN parties.
Wow, I love this BUILD! Really great work ETA!
this is honestly the coolest build
Thanks, I have been waiting for this one to come out ever since they first announced it, but didn't release it with the 770i. Time to go spend money.
Put a Marshall amp casing theme around it and I am in 100% 🤣🤣🤣
This is really nice, I'm excited for the future.
Wow! Fantastic miniPC.
Lol, at the ending of cyberpunk gameplay😊 somebody fall down from the building
I thought it was only me who noticed this....
I used the BD790i board but paired with Jonsbo N3 case and 8 SATA drives. Works wonderfully!
The exhaust port on the backplate is nice
I ordered this exact build and I’m genuinely happy with the performance. So far my favorite PC I’ve ever built. Just in time for Helldivers 2.
libertad
Hey! What's the performance like on Helldivers? Definitely looking to upgrade my rig for it.
@@Bash_McLane my laptop has this cpu and it runs it great. 4060 laptop handles it well at 1440p medium but i average like 70 fps. id imagine the 4070 ti does a lot better
@@FiveMissiles Thanks so much!
just did a 12400f 4070 build in this amazing case! love it! My case only came with a 3.0 riser unfortunately. Thats an awesome setup using the mobile chip!
Impressive little PC. Nice.
this set up is just an animal, pretty nice rig overall. you can play any game that you want to at higher res but it must cost a fortune to assemble lol
Dope mini pc very impressive performance
Perfect for ITX, both this and the Intel version. Both would drop 5-10c in temps w/ liquid metal underneath the cooler since it's essentially direct to die cooling (no IHS).
WE got a jumper lol 🤣 , great video mate, impressed by a mobile ryzen chip.
The only downside is capped at 5200mhz ram.
Desktop variants can go up to 8000mhz
Dang, I would love to build this with a2000 in a velka 3 - not sure they'd both fit but would be an amazing travel pc!
Super cool build!
PS: Your COD benchmark was actually at 1440p, but still really good performance for a mobile cpu
Also at 66% Render Scale
Got the 7945HX and Formd's T1, it's awesome. Small sleek, good perf, only decent temps tho expected better, it's a mobile chip with a huge heatsink and even at like 80W it runs quite hot.
I have really been tempted to sell a kidney for one of these awesome little Minis forum ITX boards. Even the 7745HX is SUPER sweet.
Love that I can use AMD frame gen with my RTX 3070 and get nearly identical performance as a 4070, only setting that slows me down is path tracing so I can run as high as 1440p Ultra RT
I've got one of these boards on order as I am getting fed up with huge PCs never built an MITX before! Be interesting to see how its performance compares to my existing watercooled full tower 5950x rig!!
These thing are amazing.
Could you do some in-depth build guides and tutorials on how to build these types of small form factor gaming PCs? There aren't a lot of CZcamsr channels showcasing that.
This build is so amazing, even NPC will -literally- die for it.
Would appreciate a price breakdown for each build and you take on alternative components which could optimise the price scale, thanks
Salesman of the year! Whoohoo.
Have that cpu on my laptop. It's a beast!!
Please try the same build but running ChimeraOS. Curious what differences in performance you achieve.
Nice build! What was the other case you had in mind?
Good afternoon ETA Prime, enjoy all your videos and informative teachings . I wanted to ask, could that BD790i ITX board fit into a Chopin Max. I figure I would have to use an external GPU . Trying to keep it small to fit in the backpack..
Buying my case today. Need to get this built before ff7 rebirth comes to steam lol
I'm always lookig for SF6 and Diablo 2 running on small stuff as that's what I actually play.
That one stick of RAM not being in all the way managed to annoy the crap out of me for quite a bit lol
Awesome!
This with a 4060 LP could make for a really great ultra compact PC that wouldn't be absurdly expensive.
The S300 and S400 can really compete with their more expensive counterparts. Their S500 is a good looking case too.
I would love to see a gaming build with this board and a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4060 OC Low Profile 8G and HDPlex 250W PSU with an appropriately tiny case. Even better would be the same build but a "workstation" with a Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada just to see what the maximum possible performance from the smallest possible size.
That is a nice build man. If I never had my ryzen 9 5900x and Rx 6800 I would go for this. definitely. But no need with my specs. I have the Z1 extreme in my ROG Ally wonder if they will do a handheld with this cpu/gpu combo. Obviously not the 4070 super I mean the built in GPU.
I've been looking to build a small PC to hook up to my TV for gaming but also lots of emulation for my wife and I. This may be the build for me
Same. I was thinking about buying an xbox series x but i don't like the idea of paying a subscription to play online, and not having access to both Sony exclusive and Microsoft exclusives unlike a PC, and emulation is a huge plus.
@@netnomad47 Console players will never understand 😂
Where are you finding the S300 cases offerred with the PCIE 4 riser? I can only ever find 3.0 riser versions.
I think a decent pci 4.0 riser is around 50, this case I can't find any listing with the 4.0 riser. It could be lazy script from his team.
Love your videos. I'm building this exact system in a Terra case. Question about your stats... at 11:30, the CoD stats show render resolution at 1712x960, display resolution at 1440p, but you are stating this was 4k. I'm not super familiar with how DLSS works, but I can't seem to get to 4k regardless of how I think of it. Was the 4k a type-o?
I'd really like to see Star Citizen run on this setup, seems like a good spec system.
I would've thought you would have reacted to this Acemagician troyan thing allready.
noticed your case mounted usb c will be redundant as the Miniforum BD790i does not have case usb c connector support, although there is rear motherboard usb c support.
Thanks for this video. Please could you confirm cpu cooler screw thread? is it M3? M4? Thanks !
Would you get this one or the one with the intel i9 13900? The intel has 4 m.2 slots as opposed to 2. It also has 24 cores and 32 threads. I ordered the Intel one. Hope I made a good choice...
Any chance MinisForum might come up with an octacore X3D version?
I mean I don't edit photos and video for a living, but a 3D cache octacore with 6000mhz RAM sounds like something that will not be a bottleneck for two more GPU upgrades.
And probably for even more GPU upgrades so long as
1. You also upgrade your display to higher res, if not wider too
2. Games don't start using way more than 8c/16t, or require clock speed as the main determinant for how much work it can do instead of high IPC at lower clocks.
does it exist for laptops? i dont think it exist
I wonder if sleeved custom cables would increase airflow. From here, it seems too crammed. Anyway, excellent video!
What case and power supply would you recommend if you weren't planning to add a separate GPU?
With low profile gpu and even small case with flex power supply it looks very tiny and beautiful . Wait for it from ETA
Is there an ideal way to setup the various fans for pushing/pulling on this one?
How are the Temps !?!?! I’m getting a 4070 Super next month. I might just go for this build.
I Think It Looks Great! Can It Handle A Flight Sim In VR? Thank You.
Just ordered a 7945hx bundle and a Radeon 7800xt and some other stuff
I am planning to do the same in a few months can you do some benchmarks and see how it runs. I want to have a rough idea how it performs.
Would a 4070ti super fit in this build if I swapped out the GPU in this build?
Nice review. but what I am most interested in its performance sans extra graphics card
Can you swap the cooler out on the board for a tower cooler? From what I have seen the CPU runs a bit hot when under load even with a very nice fan and I wanted to see if you could be a tower cooler on it.
Thanks! Can you run some tests like handbrake on a 4k hdr using the x265 CPU slow speed 2 pass ? Just to get an idea how many hours it will be for a pass, I get about 8 hours on a 7950x. I really want to upgrade my pc and the 7950x is power hungry, if this can do just as close, i will abadon everything and go with this and a low SFF case, just for the performance of this generation and GPU
You provided links for almost all the components but the Power Supply. Can you please share a link for what power supply you used for this build?
Yes, this video is very informative (I like IT). I've a question about GPU (in video have ASUS DUAL GTX 4070 SUPER - PCIe 4.0), but this motherboard have PCIe 5.0 x16 ( I show the screen and game run normally 🙂). I ask this question, I want use (MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16G GAMING X) to PCIe 4.0, this GPU this should work (thank for answer) 🙂. *Have new BIOS for MSI card GPU.
I'm not sure if they've asked you before:
Do you install at your game apps manually or at once with automatedly? If so, what tool did you use for it?
Thank you so much!
Hmmm, interesting MB for my next build in many ways, except for the USB port speeds from what I can see so far, which means I would probably have to sacrifice / dedicate one of the M.2 slots for expansion, which is a bit of a shame imo. Perhaps minisforum will address this this in a future version. Thankfully some other minisforum (and other) products do currently offer more modern higher speed interfaces. So close...
Am I reading right that it supports 2 m.2 nvme drives? Also does the case come with a power supply?

4:30 hello,I personally bought a s300 once and also double checked the link for it in the description. Both what I got and the linked item shows pcie 3.0 riser instead of 4.0. could you please double check for this? If there's indeed an option for 89 bucks with 4.0 riser I'd love to got another one.
I'm really leaning towards getting one of these but it's annoying to me that it lacks sata. There's several sff cases with room for at least one 2.5 ssd. You know put your Steam library on the 2.5 drive. But with this you'd be forced into getting a m.2 drive which tend to cost more than the same capacity 2.5 ssd.
Would be nice if they had one with 7940hx3d
I recently bought an s400 case. I'll build in it someday. Still need RAM, CPU and PSU.
What was the idle, gaming, and max power consumption?
please! we want reviews of usb C powered gaming rigs with aMD ryzen, so all the campervan comunity can game in their vans using portable batteries with USBC output powers close to 100w or more. Correct me if I am wrong, but these AMD ryzen with 780M could play USBC connected to a portable power station like Bluetti or similar, right?
Is there a header for that USB-C front port? I didn't notice one at first glance
How much is the bios costumizable? Are ram and cpu overclockable?
3:00 57mm height with 25mm fan, is it correct? it looks pretty cool even for very slim case
Got mine about a week and a half ago. Its a really good system even for gaming but it sucks they limit the BIOS so much. idky they wouldnt allow us to enable XMP.
Really hoping someone makes a modified BIOS at some point. This system could be so amazing if the BIOS was more open for tweaking.
Can you compare this to the desktop version?
Like to see Starfield running in this setup
lol, why
Ram speed really affects those mobile CPUs and I'm not sure if you know but that memory can easily be overclocked to 6000 megahertz my wife's Legion laptop came with 5600 megahertz and just by enabling the memory overclock it went straight to 6000 megahertz it made a big difference
My future build will be something like this. I'm tired looking at my humongous gaming PC tower and all the RGB rainbow puke lights inside it. 😅
Nice!
Whats the consumption in idle and in small usage? I want use it as mini server/nas.
I've just bought the mobo! Any recommendations for PSU?
Hi.. How did you disable onboard graphics on BD790i ? could you please explain? Thank you!
That's a pcie gen 3 cable your using... And I just bought the S400 but no option for gen 4 on Amazon...
the price for this mobo + cpu combo is nearly $800 AUD - what makes it a competitive enough choice over an itx mobo + faster desktop class cpu that would be cheaper, and still fit in that case?
Can you please include rough pricing and downsides of the products in your videos . Great content tho so thank you very much
This board is $519.99. GPU $600 pmv
this is a product presentation chsnnel, not a review channel, at best in another vide you migth get a opinion, but what you ask, doesnt happen here
Whatever happened at 13:16??? Is this normal on this game or a bug?
I know right, I LOL so loud I woke up my neighbors. 😂
would this be too much when using this build kinda (same mobo 64gb ram dual 8tb or quad 8tb if go with intel and gpu 7900 gre) for a backpack travel pc? or go smaller?
Nice! What about the noise? :)
