Most emulation barely touches the GPU, and is incredibly CPU bound, so despite its middling performance on PC gaming, this should be an absolute emulation powerhouse.

No real problems with the build except for the leads on the WiFi card, but finally got them done to my satisfaction. I was SO EXCITED... but then SO disappointed when it wouldn't power on so I could load my OS, grab the updates and install other software. I confirmed the power adapter is functional with a multimeter. I'm suspecting a bad power switch... GRRRRR!!! :-(

Fitted Noctua NF-A4x10 pwm as exhaust(double sided taped just above hdmi/DP inputs). NF-A4x20 should fit as well. Idle temps 38°. Only used Ryzen master to "auto overclock" and CineBench R23 gave MultiCore 11278 with temps 75° approx . The big change was to replace IS-47k fan with Noctua NF-A9x14 and reverse fan as intake(towards cpu) as with the heatsink tight to top made more sense to pull air in and let 40mm fan help as exhaust

[@galoguevara6049]

Yeah, I wish it had Vega 10 too. However, I read that even though it had only Vega 8 - the clock speed is much faster than the 3,000 series APU's. So from a graphics perspective, the performance in the 4,000 series APUs' Vega 8 is an improvement over the slower 3,000 series APUs' Vega 10/11. Could you imagine if they had the same Vega 10/11 cuda cores, but with the higher clock speeds? That would have been kick-ass. AMD is probably going to save that scenario for the next APU generation.

[@mierbeuker8148]

Lol, I've just built the same pc for my daily runner. My gaming pc uses too much power to run it all day, so I needed something lightweight for everyday use. But I went with the Ryzen 5 3400G, which has the Vega 11 graphics. Also, I just can't live without at least some RGB, so I paired it with a Coolermaster Masterair G200P, that has a RGB light with controller. It fits with lots of room to spare, plus its single RGB fan light is enough to light up the entire little case!! XD XD The cooler comes with a standard 3 pin plug for the fan, but the RGB sadly comes with only one male and one female molex connectors for the RGB power. So I found an old 3 pin fan, cut of the plug, leaving about 2" of wire to work with, cut off the 2 molex plugs, and soldered the 2 little RGB wires to the 12v and negative wires of the old fan. Of course you have to make sure you connect it correctly, and as the Coolermaster comes with black wires, which is aesthetically much better than ketchup and mustard wires, the negative wire has like, a light grey intermittent line running along it. So I connected that one to the black wire from the old fan plug, and the solid black one to the yellow wire of the old plug. Don't connect it to the red one, as that is the 5v wire. Then I just plugged in the fan connector into the 1st CPU fan socket, and the power for the RGB into the second CPU fan socket. And I have to say, it looks fantastic when running, plus the Coolermaster has absolutely no problem keeping the temps of the 65w CPU in check. It's even ASRock Polychrome sync compatible!! However, I have not yet tried to get that to work. I don't think it will, as the RGB is not running off a RGB header, but rather just a fan header. Anyway, I still had one problem, and that was where to put the controller for the RGB. Now after looking all over the case, I noticed at the back, it has a little fitting hole, that you can break open if you want to install an extra audio and mic adapter. But as I use HDMI, I don't need the audio, plus the case comes standard with these plugs on the front, if ever I should want to plug in a headset. And after some testing, I found that if I secured the controller on the inside of the case, just in the middle of that hole, I could easily press all three buttons as needed. So I glued it in place with a glue gun, as that damages nothing, it hardens really fast, and of course can be easily removed if ever I choose to do so. The only problem was that sometimes when I pressed it, because I used very little "glue", it would come away from the back, and get pushed inside the machine. So I opened it up again, and as the back of it was about half an inch from the side of the fan itself, I just cut a piece of black plastic, and hot glued it firmly in place, with the back having the solid support of the fan behind it. So no matter how hard you push now, it's not going anywhere. And once you close everything up, you can't see any of my handy gluing, and you can change the colors and programs and brightness all you want, without seeing anything except all the glorious RGB lighting. Hope this helps anybody else planning on using this brilliant little system, but needs some RGB in their lives as well. XD XD

The most cursed stock CPU cooler I've ever seen

[@benjamintan2733]

Well, the reason you got 136.3W from the wall socket is because the power supply will consume a bit higher than their rated output, which is 120W in this case. If you take the input and divide the output, the PSU has 88% efficiency, which is not bad. If you can get a 150W or 180W adapter, it may actually give this unit a better performance but also greater heat output. Still, wish they have a way to at least install a dedicated GPU, either through ThunderBolt 3 or PCIe extender, even if it is proprietary connector.

[@InglebardGaming]

I love the idea of these super compact computers, but the performance you get for the price... unless you have money to burn these things are just insane. Same with the ultra small portable "laptop" style things from GPD. So much of that stuff looks great and I wouldn't mind having it, but I just can't justify the cost of those things to myself. For those that can, what can I say, enjoy!

[@ringwe]

The cost of electricity is one major factor because these minis run at a much lower TDP.

[@chochanga]

Finally! Thanks ETA!!! Been waiting for this combination for a long time.

[@bionicgeekgrrl]

This looks awesome for the size. A shame the 4750g is not more affordable. If a 5700g comes next year, with the 5600x/5800x performance in reviews it should be a beast of a small fotm factor build CPU

[@davefroman4700]

$200 on Aliexpress today. Or you can scrounge them out of HP Mini desktops.

[@SethPinnock]

Dude you are awesome, the best part of the build is the cooler.. I am inspired to build my Ryzen sooner than later.

[@AMABELTVHD]

This Case Are Like Intel NUC but with Better Price And Performance.

[@dhanarsantika]

First time I see someone benchmarking Fall Guys

[@LiLBitsDK]

the sata connectors aren't proprietary, they are actually a standard and quite a few use them ;-) and the PSU you forget that the 120W is on the PC side not on the wall plug side of the PSU (efficiency yada yada)

[@bagelbytes69420]

So if we assume 80%+ efficiency, that would mean the max draw should be 150W pulled from the wall before it overloads? Since 120W / .8 = 150W?

[@LiLBitsDK]

@@bagelbytes69420 if the math is correct then yes (just woke up so can't be bothered to check but it looks right)

Very cool!!! Haven’t built a PC in years! This gives me options, great video!!!

[@eterrestrial32]

Apparently, you could run the 4000 series APU's in the A300 Deskmini as well, just that they're not really readily available in retail.

[@salani5897]

When pricing, have you covered the price of the processor heat sink?

It is a very nice case.... I am building a mini ITX and I have get a Ryzen 5 4654G (not supported by ASrock) but I prefer my set because I may update it one day! Thanx for the video!

It's going to perform worse, what's the point?

[@ChrisTravelVlog]

I got this apu. It’s good. Ps3 full speed. Yuzu can hit 30fps in game for things like Mario odyssey, pokemon sword. Interested to see how much better the 4750g is

[@adamwalter2573]

I own a lot of NUCs but after using them for few years, I decided to switch to a classic desktop, where I can replace any component to newer one and also replace VGA. IGPs were never meant to be plaed on, let's not cheat ourselves. The only positive side is that you can pack it into your backpack to carry with you, but.....what about display ? External displays are for sale now, but....why not to take laptop with you. tadaaaaa ! For those hesitating whether to buy it or not - try to sit in front of it, work a couple of hours, days, months with a heavier load....do you still like the noise of those fans ? :)

[@HuntaKiller91]

Im waiting for the day where any APU can play cod warzone in 1080p60 low That would make me retire my itx rx570 build

[@lucaspagoto266]

I saw a video of a guy playing warzone on an APU and it looks pretty playable at like 50 frames or so. Im not sure if its 1080p tho.

[@lucaspagoto266]

[@GabrielGabeRodriguez]

@@lucaspagoto266 no. He lowered the resolution to 720p. Tbh tho that's the 3200G this 4700H might actually do it

[@hksduhksdu]

Thanks for the video. If ever one day I would build a tiny box for my daily driver for retirement, I probably would go for this. For now, the only showstopper to me is that I cannot connect this to 3x 49" monitors, or else this will be my next machine.

[@johnknightiii1351]

You should link that awesome heatsink in the description with the rest of the parts. It looks like it's available on Amazon. Does ryzen master let you overclock the cpu?

[@dennisbinkhorst2039]

I'm using this box with a Ryzen 5 3400G on 16GB DDR4-3200 as my Home Office PC. I actually use the Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 cooler. It is even lower than the cooler you use in your build but probably won't cool as efficient on the 4750G.

[@kennedya7848]

cant wait for the raspberry pi 400 review!

[@singletona082]

Didn't he already do one, or was that just the unboxing?

[@eno3291]

You might be able to get even better temperatures with that ID-Cooling if you turn its fan blowing air towards the motherboard and sucking air through the heatsink. This cooler looks pretty similar to Alpenföhn Black Ridge cpu cooler and some people have gotten better results with the fan facing towards the motherboard.

[@gauravwalavalkar2493]

Retailers in India are still playing with 3000 series of Ryzen.

This seems like it'd be a beast for a very small form factor htpc or even a gaming pc for the living room or an extra gaming pc for someone with a gaming room and don't want a dedicated desk setup, just a console setup.

[@chimchar545]

I love these mini pc build videos! If you ever decide to revisit this build in a future video I'd like to see how well Fortnite runs on it (: awesome video as always!!

[@DigitalIP]

Ryzens and Ryzen APU's love fast RAM so that overclock likely helped the GPU a bit in games.

[@CoryRwtfyt]

I wonder if that apu will work on my a300. Edit: After looking at the prices, I'm good with sticking with my 2200g.

[@pfriedel]

The A300 officially tops out at Picasso / 3400g territory, although apparently there's a beta bios floating around that adds support for the 4x00 chips. I ended up upgrading my a300 from a 2200g to a 3400g just as a precaution figuring that AMD will EOL the 3400g eventually, and the performance difference is noticeable in some workloads.
