I really like that different companies are making these compact PCs.. I have an older Beelink model that has a Ryzen 7 3750H. I think it's great for tinkering (trying distros, etc.), for doing basic tasks with low power draw. Of course there are more expensive models that can do a lot more, but again, I like that different companies are making these more available at prices that are not out of this world for what you are getting. :)

The AMD mini PCs available right now are fantastic and the pricier ones are GREAT for gaming.

SUPERB VID

[@jkbobful]

Hope you come back one day

[@MrDagoGoda]

Hi there insightful video. For video edditing H264 would you recomend Geekom Ryzen 7940HS over this intel i9? Im hesitating between these two. Cheers!

[@EHKvlogs]

have you tried shotcut editor? how vaapi h264 performs as compared to cpu only?

[@avidwriter2882]

A mini PC like this is going to smash most editing and other non-gaming things, sure.

[@8713kenny]

hi can you let me no how to get cpu frequency limits app im on linux mint 21.3 and it runing on a dell optiplex 7050

[@redrush-hp9li]

What kernel version did you use in linux mint?

[@InfinitelyGalactic]

I used the EDGE iso with 6.5 kernel. 👍

Are you still alive? You've not uploaded for a while.

[@avidwriter2882]

With a Steamdeck, I will never buy a tower PC again. The SD fills my gaming needs with so much less space and I can dock it for TV or monitor play. Minis will now be my daily driver because I don't need to waste money on a huge videocard anymore! (However this mini is crazy, you can get an $800 tower that more... I don't get the target for this one.)

Good review subbed. Nice to hear a random guy pronounce "aluminium " the right way.

[@stepheningermany]

Not quite, blaine pronounces it "aloo-mini-um", correct pronouniation from where I come from is "alyou-mini-um", and for american's "aloo-min-um" as they spell it differently

[@jimw7916]

correct ....it is the correct way , all you need to do is look at the table of elements and look at ALL the "light metals" (including calcium) and they ALL end in "ium". so the American one is WRONG as usual.

[@MarkHobbes]

3 months, no videos...

[@Whatupdays]

Did you quit KZbin?

[@yanyanayan2867]

It's now ASUS NUC

[@alexandrosvangelatos9979]
