For those trying to find the price. $1k (USD) for the barebone variant
Sheesh
$1k LOL WUT
It's crazy! He always refuses to mention the price 😂
@@braindead2813 If he does mentioned the price then no one will watch his video 😂🤣
$1200 for 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD and I assume Windows 11?
I guess that's not TOO bad for these types of things. Obviously for $1200 US you can get far stronger normal sized desktops however.
install bazzite in it!
No comparative benchmark graphs? No mention of the price? No thanks
$999 barebones (add in ram, ssd, os)
$1199 w/ 32GB ram, 1tb ssd, windows 11 home
And the test he does are all strange ones. FRS performance and frame gen on. i would take that if he showed the regular ones. 1080p, 1400p and 4K, all at max settings. That way its easy to compare against other machines. i used the Shadow of TR test to compare. It's around 60-65% of a 7700XT/4070 in terms of perfomance
@@joaocardoso9031he shows how users will actually use the device, are you new to his channel?
@@joaocardoso9031 its like he makes the tests purposely uncomparable between devices
@@reallycarson
If $999 is barebones, then the margin for earnings is ridiculously small.
Their AR900i is around $550 and the GPU even as a mobile retails for like $700 alone with the Oculink setup. I find it crazy that price.
"ayo lemme reboot your router real quick"
NO THATS MY PC YOU FOOL
WE REALLY NEEDS TO VALVE TO RELEASE SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR A CONSOLE LIKE EXPERIENCE WITH HOW STEAM-OS RUNS, COME ON VALVE!!!!
It’s the only way we’d get reasonable pricing.
Almost perfect AMD mini-PC. No USB-4 is a tough pill to swallow tho.
USB-4/Thunderbolt should be standard on a cutting edge gaming PC these days.
The ability to run an external GPU flawlessly should always be an option.
Took the comment right out of my head!
I'd wait for USB-5 IMO. More bandwidth, so better performances and experience overall with eGPUs.
And it’s 1000 barebone
@@Awaited1412 USB 6 is where it's at my man.
@@mechanicalmonk2020 huh ? They already developed USB-6 ? Either way, I don't know cause we shouldn't always look for "the next version". I think we should satisfy ourselves with something good and stick to it. USB-4 has a bandwidth of 40Gbps, which is kinda slow. USB-5 and its 120Gbps would be the sweet spot IMO. ROG's XG Mobiles have a bandwidth of 80Gbps so that's why I think USB-5 could be a nice (and why not permanent) standard.
If they had just used the 7900m…………
100% this.
it would cost almost 2k
@@joaocardoso9031 why not have the option
@@reallycarson makes no sense. they are a small company. its not worth to make a SKU just to sell 1000 world wide.
@@joaocardoso9031 ahhh yes, because you work for the company, know the books and ledger the company holds, and can make that statement. Sure, sure.
On the specs, glad to see im not the only one who accidently hit shift and got a ! when it was supposed to be a 1 and didnt notice till it was to late 😂
Thanks for the video. 7600M XT is more of a 1080p card.. this CPU is over powered for it. Better to pair it with 4070 or 4080 or the AMD equivalent, which is not 7600m XT. Would be nice if you could upgrade GPU
You right about cpu overkill, but actualy this amount of CPU cores are intended also for creator and streamer, this cpu paired with 32 gb of ram is helping the frame rate stability and avoid thermal throttling!!!!, IN LESS WORDS NO BOTTLENECK CPU/GPU, AND MORE CREATOR POWER.
Totally missed opportunity not including an OCuLINK port.
@@ominousview 7700 would be a good choice. Or 4070m.
nice, thanks for share
Would love to see a video with this running high end emulation please
Super nice little PC!
I have the GPD G1 so always fun seeing benches for the same GPU.
I have a request if you don't mind- please run gaming benchmarks without upscaling and especially without frame generation.
You can obviously add those after.
That way we can tell the actual performance for those who would like to play at the highest possible quality.
For example the video sample of Horizon 2 looked terrible (fsr balanced after all), and I was watching on a 1080p 43" tv...
For a second I thought it's a Playstation 2 unboxing 😅
Emulation Tests please 😁🥺
Is dat a serious question lol smh
Why do you need an emulation test? It's obviously just gonna run everything
for a minute i thought it was a GPU
Thought about picking this up been wanting a mini pc
Let’s see some emulation tests on it please ! ❤
It will emulate everything
@@jimmymac2292 what about 12k virtual boy ?
Why would you need that? It can literally emulate everything lol. Most phones can now lol
@@Adam-vx6to Not PS3 or PS4
@@ThomasGailNobody can emulate PS4 yet. Only very recently has Bloodborne even become bootable on an emulator 😢
Great review, thanks! Is it worth undervolting the CPU and GPU on this type of PC to achieve better temperatures?
7800x3d + 7900xtx in a custom pcb board mini PC would be freaking sweet.
Next gen variant with newer cpu and gpu would be sweet too
You absolutely have to test this vs the first Strix Halo APU, which will have 40CUs instead of 32 but all in one package! I wonder how much power efficiency an APU can give! Also will have similar bandwidth 8000MT*256/8= 256GB/s vs 128bit*2250Mhz= 288GB/s and lpddr5 is reported to be more energy efficient than gddr6.
The StrixHalo will be a nice APU and you need only ONE propeller for the system-cooling (like a XBOX or PS5)…i wait for that! (spring 2025)
Does anyone know the monitor eta is using I’m looking for a new one it looks perfect
Did all the CZcamsrs plan reviews on this on the same day? Must have gotten their sample units!
Yeah, review embargo.
More likely an embargo is up today
Would like to see some framerate numbers, without using framegen.
then head over to TechTablets the review came earlier today and covered that without any AI faf.
I agree. Framegen is worthless as a metric for comparison and a crutch for manufacturers and game devs.
I honestly can't wait for the Strix Halo APU line-up, once these companies get their hands on them. The creative potential for these mini pc's or even handheld pc's in the next coming year is gonna be insane.
Truly a great "mini" PC and I have to say that I prefer it to the Asus Rog Nuc due to the latter's too high temperatures and the price which is absurd to say the least. AMD and minisforum have done a great job here. Now let's wait for Amd ryzen Strix Halo and see if Lisa Su keeps what she promises, because if so, next year we will see an epochal increase in performance for a chiplet with integrated GPU that is between an RTX 4060 and an RTX 4070 .
I'm glad I waited one more day. I almost bought a HX99G last night.
Well about 400 dollars differencies
still curious why we haven't seen a X3D mobile chip in a mini pc yet. also wish there were more options with Nvidia gpu's
kinda odd since they use regular cpus that use 130 watts, but they wont use a 7800x3d that uses 50 watts..
nvidia tied up with icels, so yeah...
Wonder if I could stick a screen and a battery pack on there and clamp one of those mobile controllers on it to make a massive and really heavy Steam Deck alternative.
Minisforum has a video (in Chinese) showing how to upgrade/install components. You're supposed to disassemble from the other side and remove the RGB panels.
Spit out the link 😉
Yeah a link would be great please. I am interested if the discrete gpu would be replacable or not. Could be a deal breaker cos really interested in this right now, but can you upgrade to another mobile GPU later?
That all-new G7 PT is The World's first AMD Advantage Mini Gaming PC looks really awesome Mini PCs are the future of gaming what dosen't take too much space of your room LOVE Mini PCs and these videos that video was good and interesting as always your videos are thank you Eta Prime! 😍💜
I'd love to see compilation benchmark that uses all 16 cores to see how fast it throttles
you have the cyberpunk info on the horizon forbidden dawn showcase
PLEASE ETA, PLEASE, if you still have the test unit, try getting an apt-link fs43g adapter (the new pcie gen 5 version) and do a video with a proper egpu setup (something like a 7900 xtx or a 4080/4090). considering the almost irrelevant performance difference between the 7945hx and the desktop counterpart (other then the 3d models of course), with an egpu it might be the endgame in the desktop replecement world, with an extremely high end pc while docked with an egpu and a really good 1080p experience while on the go.
Google has never heard of "apt-link fs43g adapter" can you send me the right name please? I am interested in this mini pc but would be keen to know my GPU upgrade options for the future. No thunderbolt or occulink is a problem. Thanks
Really curious how well this handles higher end emulation. I would figure with the Ryzen 9 7945HX and the RX 7600M XT that this can chew through the more demanding, later generation console emulation.
I pulled the trigger and ordered this for a custom arcade cabinet I'm making for our game room as I really wanted a small form factor gaming PC compared to the full sized gaming pc currently in use for our current arcade cabinet. The lighter weight will be nice, seeing as the new cabinet will have moving parts to transform from an upright to a full sit-down racing setup.
huh 71ºC cpu temp in bios? damn
Wish you add noise levels dp in your tests.
Could you please make a comparison between this and the new ROG NUC? I'm looking for a capable PC in a small form factor for my living room and I'm torn between them.
Great performance for this tiny PC
Lol he already uploading review. We want more of this model!!!!
Ok, this one looks interesting. Maybe I buy a miniPC like this with 12 or 16GB of VRAM. Really cool machine.
Thanks for your video.
I have some questions:
1- Is the fan too loud for video editing?
2- I don't do gaming, but I do video editing and coding. Is this mini PC suitable for video editing and screen recording?
3- Is this 5200 DDR5 speed enough for keeping this mini PC for 5 years? I wish we had at least 6000 DDR5 ram.
Thanks
Definitely need a bazziteOS video on this guy
Cool. Wish there were GPU options
What other GPUs do you want?
@@Zoyx I'm not sure, others
4090
@@walter_the_wobot2349 That would be fun. Has anyone made a PC in this form factor with a mobile RTX 4090 in it?
Imagine if there were a motherboard and graphics card standard for super compact builds like this. CAMM2 memory, socketed CPUs. A graphics card designed to be sandwiched on top on the motherboard.
Almost perfect for heavy but general purpose use, it needs oculink. Price seems very reasonable for 16 (all performance) cores. Im thinking this might be a perfect Proxmox home lab server. I'm hearing different specs from many other reviewers, like max memory and max USB speeds.
can someone remind me what the new "crossfire" stuff is called and if these sorts of iGPU and GPU configs can still do it? I recall you being able to enable an option that lets the iGPU handle some tasks while the GPU does 99% of the work for like a 2% fps boost.
For that price and for that size they could have thrown in an oculink port...hell, they put it on the um780 xtx and you can find those for roughly $400 these days.
The Spiderman PC.
Nice
Que buenas maquinas hacen, y pequeñas.
Cual es el mando que sale en el video?
That's a very niche product I guess a console replacement still to pricey though
can you test the mini pc in 1080p without framegen and upscaling
How low TDP can it goes ? When playing 2D indie games or in idle ?
so single or double side m.2 ssd support?
I'm a little worried about that CPU temp during gameplay staying consistently over 80 Celsius.. not great for overall lifespan. It's right on the edge the whole time, anytime you're playing games.
Is that a game or a screen saver (train ride) towards the beginning running on the PC?
How does it perform when using emulators?
I dunno I don't get the appeal over laptops. Even the temps are pretty close.
Helldivers 2 doesnt have any upscaling method execpt TSR
Bit of a beast....
Wondering why they chose to use the 7945
And not the new generation?
please for next mini pcs with and without framegen, thanks (framegen wont work at linux)
would be curious to see how the 7600m stacks up against a 4060 laptop card.
nontheless, 16 cores and 32 threads CPU seems like a beast
Hello, how does this compare with the Asus ROG NUC???
Hi, can you please show video with this nuc computer on steam os and xbox or dualschok controller and if you have maybe some tv with 2k, shown on him thanks
I would like it if you would show some prices
What's that pc controller you have?
Honestly with pcs like this and steam os idk if I'll ever buy another console what's the point thing looks beautiful 😍
More or less better off getting a console at both power and price point at least compared to this mini PC. :(
@@Yoshi278 true but at the same time it's so nice looking
You can also do so much more with a PC than game, so it has some advantages in terms of utility over a console.
Make a video where you turn this into a steam machine and show how it runs on a 4k TV compared to ps5 😉
Damn man, I get jealous when you get rumored or announced miniPCS ahead of everyone else to play with.
Edit: How many liters is it in volume?
Is this better than the Asus ROG Nuc in terms of CPU and GPU performance?
Close but mo cigar - great cpu, but better mobile GPU needed. Interesting to see how this perfroms in games vs the old NUCXI7 with a 3070
Is this replacing minisforum’s HX series?
This or the 8700x build u did?
$1k barebones is a bit steep but the performance is great for a mini.
Except pure performance isnt what you are paying for. You are paying for the size.
I miss when you used to do reviews and not paid advertisements :(
I wonder why no manufacturer has put together a system like this but with the x3d version of the 7945 cpu and the 7900m gpu.
(btw) The last game demo was mislabeled.
Nice design, but I will wait for Ryzen 9xxx small form factor.
This is the best mini pc CPU
Any PC review that doesn't include a Street Fighter 6 test is incomplete
If they put a 7900M in it I would buy one.
At this price point, I would get a mini ITX, what's the point? It's a gaming laptop without screen?
Hey Minisforum! How about something a BIT more than the lowest end current GPU?! Or at least options for others?! 😑
With the whole spiderweb design it better run spiderman flawlessly lol
Nah. Runs it like falling though minecraft spiderwebs... Without any tools to free yourself.
@@justinpatterson5291 damn rip
@@HexOptimal it would actually be great at running it. If optifine can ressurect an old laptop and make it play MC. This thing could be a mini server with 32-64GB RAM.
@@justinpatterson5291 yep this thing should be able to run minecraft with intense shaders. ETA Prime I think used to test minecraft w/ shaders sometimes idk what happened to that (might be thinking of someone else though)
this might be a dumb question can this PC run Escape from Tarkov with no problems? (main concern)
They should have variants with 7700xt, 7800xt, 7900GRE, 7900xt, and 7900XTX. Looks like a Laptop PC but with better cooling; but the 8 GB VRAM 7600XT is one concern.
Minisforum must have gotten a great deal on these chips 1.5 years on now. Too bad they still have this priced like they're at launch.
"unparalleled"...that 4070 mini pc had more juice than that.
Got it Ram settings for timings an xmp?
Nice system but don;'t like to pay for the 16core. 7600m GPU is nice in the short term but likely I want to replace it in the future-I'd like something without dGPU but provide Oculink
bought a 4070 laptop for less
that is nice but this is smaller.
@SnatchTease You got a far better deal, though I think most 4070 mobile setups would be a bit slower.
Yup prices are amazing right now
Exactly, that thing is overpriced and weak
In case anyone was wondering, these are sold out and definitely over 1k base price $ouch 😞
looks cool but not in that price
its better to get some gm2tec and egpu with 2060
For the love of God, STOP using FSR/DLSS and framegen! I want to see what the HARDWARE actually does, not these gimmicks and tricks!
The hardware lets you play game X at Y settings, which is all that matters.
@@mechanicalmonk2020 That's just not the way I see it. I want to know about hardware capability, not driver and software gimmicks. It makes it an even, fair, and balanced way of comparing across manufacturers, models, and generations of hardware.
what is the controller at the beginning in smokey black with orange accents?
that CPU temp though...
this vs the rog nuc. hmm what should i buy
Neither dude they're both pretty awful. Still better off building your own small form factor PC. Give it a few years and prebuilt mini PCs will probably be worth the money.
where to get train wallpaper ?
I'll buy this or wait for 9950x
Buy this now or wait for a Ps5 Pro or an Xbox with Nividia shield?
PS5 have very few games that justify the purchase, I'm a die hard console player, but i would not buy it right now, maybe in a couple of years, right now I would buy a pc, with ps now and xbox game pass you have way mote titles.
What controller is that
How much is it? $300?
