Just bought because of this video. Thanks!

Great video on this mini PC!

For Emulation it's not good if you use a resource hungry OS like Windows especially since the N100 can only do single channel memory (limitation of the Intel N Series). However with something like Batocera (and other lightweight Linux distros) this will make even PS2 emulation run way more better with most games at a 720p upscaling (hard to run titles at native res only). This system with Batocera would make a awesome DIY arcade cabinet build for now that is until they get the N100 SBCs out onto the market. Have it hook up to a UNICO 17" to 26" monitor, and you can have something that'll crush the Raspberry Pi it terms of performance (when compared to buying a full Pi4 kit).

I Was Looking For A Video This Transparent For Weeks, Thank You; I Stream On Console But Wanted To Use A PC To Customize My Stream Layout As I Wanted, Only Issue For Me Was Price And Space. After Seeing This Video I’ll Be Adding This Mini Pc To My Set Since It Is #6 Under Amazons Mini Pc Best Sellers (was #1 couple days)

Looks pretty cool

[04:48] Hi there! Thanks for the detailed review of the Camry ak2 plus Mini PC. It seems like a versatile device that offers solid performance for its price point. I'm considering getting one for myself, but I have a few questions: [04:59] 1. Can you tell me more about its cooling system? Does it tend to get hot during extended use, especially when gaming or streaming? [05:08] 2. How's the noise level? Does the fan make a lot of noise, or is it relatively quiet during operation? [05:16] 3. You mentioned it's running Windows 11 smoothly, but have you encountered any compatibility issues with certain software or drivers? [05:25] 4. Are there any specific accessories or upgrades you would recommend for this Mini PC to enhance its performance further? [05:35] Your insights will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help.

So what do you recommend for a powerful but budget friendly mini PC and hard drive?

[@edgaryh]

How well does it handle obs?

[@mister_4242]

I think the answer is "no" based on this review but go you think it could run genshin impact? it's ok if it has to be on low settings but just curious if it could run that at all smoothly

[@ronniesmith7540]

Whaere do you connect the audio output?

[@Bajicoy]

How are the temperatures?

[@eugene9122]

Great vid If I was to buy a game via Xbox Store like Star field or anything that’s also available for PC. Am I able to install it on this PC? (just would depend on GB available correct?)

[@ErwinMuller-ms9lp]

The graphics card of this mini pc is not good enough to run Starfield. But its possible to run Starfield on this machine with "Geforce Now".

[@johnflanagan1981]

Can I add a new graphics card?

[@ErwinMuller-ms9lp]

The cpu passmark in the video is way to low. I have the same pc and it has a cpu passmark of 5484. Only difference: its from "NIPOGI" instead of "KAMRUI". Runs great with Geforce Now btw. 🙂

[@funnymikeent5038]

Can it play GTA V?

[@loob1275]

I'm asking for gaming

[@HomophobicXenu]

"a relatively nitch product"

[@elduderino7767]

cpu passmark of 3000 is atrocious it should be pulling 5000 minimum im hoping you had windows updating running in the background stealing cpu cycles, otherwise the cpu is under performing by about 40%

[@srvuk]

Not a great review really. Too sparse on information and other have PS2 emulation running fine on the N100. Spend more time to give viewers and prospective purchasers the best of information. You cannot possibly do justice in 5 minutes.

[@GameHeadNes]

PS2 runs with low resource heavy games. I left those out because I want to give an honest concise review. I didn’t test the machine out in “5 minutes” as you stated, I spent hours testing it. I just left out all the fluff and got to the point. If you want a long drawn out review with lots of filler you won’t find that on this channel.
