YOUYEETOO X1 SBC 1st RetroBat Killer Instinct Emulation Test
thanks great video. I ordered one. looking forward to test those
My N100 does run it but, even at 720p it felt like wadding through mud most of the time. Now it's actually nice to play.
It is a very capable little machine and processor. Kills the Pi5 and RK3588 systems.
And the N100. It's the NEW budget champ. (for now at least)
hi, can this be powered by a normal usb c phone charger from apple?
Hi. It needs 12v 3a 36w USB-C. If your charger can output that, I don't see why not.
thank you for sharing buddy. constant 60 fps waw it's crazy! what about the fan's noise during the session? is it noisy?
yeah it is crazy but, look out for my GTA V video coming soon.. I set the fan manually to 200 in this video i believe. (i'd rather a constant fan noise than a ramp up/down noise)
@@PiManiac one more question please. do you think is there any difference between launching batocera from usb port or micro sd card in terms of performance? Launching from sd card seems to be smarter because it allows to keep usb ports available for others uses. thanks
@@mohamedrich6830 hi. If sdcard is bootable device (might wanna check that) it will be slower for sure than USB3.
Does it run just as good and at higher resolution on the nucbox g5?
@@marcinmorun I'm pretty sure it will but, I will test it out.
what app is that your using that has a lot ps2
Hi. It's my own Batocera build with HyperMax V9 theme and yeah, has just over half the 4000+ PS2 titles available installed.
Fantastic review! Thank you for posting. I was deeply curious how well it handled emulation and this answered my question 😁
Can you try Champions of Norrath?
@@marcinmorun I already did. video is here on my channel.
@@PiManiac Thanks!
@@PiManiac Out of curiosity, did you test ps2 emulation after applying the bios and CPU temps fix?
@@marcinmorun Yes i did.
This N97 really is a nice little bump from the N100 to aid emulation and gaming in general.
It definitely is. (i have a N100 also) GPU is at 1200Mhz N100 is 750Mhz N97 Max CPU is a little higher also
Can you explain “emulation”, I’m not familiar with this phrase. I’m looking for a mini to edit photos in Photoshop , no videos, email, some word processing, and RUclips. Not sure if will run Microsoft Flight Simulator?
basically, allows one computer system to mimic another via software. Most Mini PCs can do all that you want. However, the latest Microsoft Flight Simulator will need a fair bit of GPU power. (depending on your expectations)
Has anyone ever seen more than 2.9GHz on the Intel N97 NucBox G5?
The maximum boost frequency for 1 core is 3.6 GHz / 3600 MHz (for like 1-2 seconds) The maximum sustained frequency for ALL cores is 2.9 GHz / 2900 MHz. I've seen 3.4 MHz a few times using Batocera Performance graphs.
@@PiManiac okay. Yesterday I saw in a Video that you have to enable C-States and Set the CPU Power to 15W. I'm Testing it right now. I always Stop at 2.9 GHz
@@unknownidentity0815 Most will tell you C-States are best left off but, it make very little difference. The power supply that comes with the G5 is 12w/3a and others have tested with better power supplies that can make the required 15w with no better benchmark results. You cannot run at the BOOST CPU speed for more than a few seconds. 2,9 is the MAX you will see with benchmarks. It's the GPU@1200Mhz that enables the N97 to beat the N100.
@@PiManiacOkay, the 2.9GHz performance of the CPU is sufficient for me. I knew that the 3.6GHz is single-thread only. but even with the CPU-Z stress test, I couldn't get more than 2.9GHz with one core. I tested C-State and now see more than 2.9ghz even in task manager.
@@unknownidentity0815 Whilst I see a slight inprovement in Geekbench 6 Benchmark scores with C-States ON, Batocera seems to run worse so, Windows/RetroBat may benefit from it being enabled more. (& i still see a core going way over 2.9 on Batocera at times)
Some tests ran by me this afternoon. N100 CPU= Geekbench 6.3.0 CPU = 985 Single/2985 Multi. GPU Tests Vulkan = 3731 - OpenCL = 3270 | N97 CPU = Geekbench 6.3.0 = 972 single/2984 Multi. GPU Tests Vulkan = 5975 / OpenCL = 5186.
My Geekbench 6.3.0 N97 for GMKtec G5: single core - 1223, mult-core - 2888 on balance power plan mode.
@@michaelm4407 How about the GPU Vulkan/OpenCL tests?
@@PiManiacGPU Tests Vulkan = 5963 / OpenCL = 5207. Seems similar to yours. I'll need to replace the thermal paste after noticing thermal throttling in HWinfo64. Trying to decide on Kooling Monster KOLD-01 vs MX4. I wonder if HTWingnut used too much thermal paste on his G5 considering the N97 is a small APU.
@@michaelm4407 I certainly used less than he did and i hope soon, this is not required. This is a cheap/awesome little unit for what your getting here.
@@PiManiac Was it difficult to reassemble the G5. I think I will struggle to put back the ribbon cable for the upper motherboard. Do I need a tweezer of some sort? I don't think I've seen any videos re-assembling the G5 from anyone yet.
Great demonstration of the PS3 possibilities.
Good demonstration that will give useful context in comparison with ARM SOC's.
It is a bit of a shame that the lack of decent CPU paste takes some shine off the box.
I did reach out and received a reply that their techs will look into but, time will tell.
Hopefully they take the advice and act on it. I did new paste on mine yesterday and its just a world of difference. I used a nano diamond thermal paste which was a couple dollars more than the usual ones at my local but it certainly worked well. I can't get it to go higher than 79c now in stressing (and generally more like 75c) whereas before I'd often see 89-96c. I used to hear the fan revving up to maximum speed constantly but now as its running cooler I rarely ever hear it.
What 2D PS3 Games should i try?
What PS2 titles do you want to see?
great job my friend. i think god of war is a good challenge for this little box. thanks
@@mohamedrich6830 Yeah GOW 2 will only run @ 2.5x Upscaling. (which looks GREAT btw..wanna see?)
Really enjoyed your videos on the device so far! Currently waiting for my G5 to arrive. As I am also looking to run Batocera, can I ask hos your custom build differs from the official x86-64 build and if there are any performance differences? Did you mostly use your own configuration or actually built a different image from source?
Hi. It's the standard barebones Batocera build (not a prebuilt with roms etc) i have added some extra emulators and ports (see @BatoceraNation ) and used Scott Ocana ES theme. (Link in my description which you expand by clicking ...MORE above) I have off course added BIOS/ROMS (can't tell you much more about that here) and configured the Emulators where required. (Sometimes Per Game) Happy to share what i've learnt and know as, i have been doing this for quite a few years.
@@PiManiac thanks, will check out the channel
Thank you for this! I need to tear mine down and do this thermal paste fix as the temps do worry me. Also maybe I'm unlucky, but fair warning to anyone about the included SSDs on these. I have the 256gb model and the SSD suddenly died on me after just a week of using it. The NUC itself is fine and I've just been running on a micro SD card until my replacement SSD arrives, a bit slower to boot etc obviously but at least I've been able to use the thing.
Dismantling is pretty straightforward, just watch the connector where the two boards connect. (A bit of patience required to reconnect also) @HTwingnut has a better teardown tbh but didn't have the success i did with re-pasting. I have purchased about 6 of these so far and no SSD issues yet. I have been speaking to GMKtec support and hope the paste used is changed for those (like me) who like to push this little NUC harder than just browsing and watching RUclips.
@@PiManiac thanks for that info, it's hard to find much detailed stuff on these around the net oddly enough. As for the SSD, I guess I really am unlucky!
Thanks for this. Did they remove the bios update from their website?
@Urosaurus No. It's still on GMKtec website (more links, support, firmware update) and i also host/link to it above in the full video description. Thanks
@@PiManiac great, many thanks!
** Update ** BIOS update has gone from GMKtec website so, only my share which is linked above.
@@PiManiac es gab Probleme nachdem BIOS Update mit der Win 11 Aktivierung
@@unknownidentity0815 Interesting. I activated before updating and have been fine. Do you have more details?
Complete review of the Gmkteck with additional useful gadgets
What do you want to see next?
The maximum CPU speed. Boosted and sustained. Geekbench 6 GPU benchmark, please. Cheers!
@@Urosaurus Max 3.6GHz, Sustained 2.9GHz. Geekbench 6.3.0 = 972 single/2984 Multi. Geekbench GPU Vulkan = 5975 / 5186 OpenCL
@@PiManiac thank you
do you think the 4gb variant would be the most cost effective since it's not really utilizing the 8gb of ram?
I'd still go for 8gb if you wanted some higher end systems, Win10/11 or even cloud gaming which is possible with this.
Great job, good to see a demo of actual play.
Thanks. Hope you enjoyed my struggles. I made Killing the first boss in Shadow of the Colossus (something I'd done many times easily) look really tough.

**UPDATE** See ..MORE/Read Info for a LINK to a patch that should allow YOU can play this game on your RK3588 Board!
Great video how do you get killer instinct one and 2 to work these are the only 2 games in my mame list that don't work I have both games and chd for both still not booting up what emulator are you using for these 2 games
Hi. This is just running on the $99 USD X1 SBC a fun x86/Linux computer. I used Retrobat which I downloaded from their website free and put my ROMs in the correct places. Contact me elsewhere if you want more help.
Would be nice to see some hints on how to do this.
I'm planning on it.
@@PiManiac Could you please provide some info in the description of the video? What are the necessary steps to get this running? I have not managed to get this to work on my machine :/
What is your Machine? Radxa Rock 5 A or B? Whilst it should work on other RK3588 boards however, i can't guarantee even if i explain how that it will on others. Do you have aetherSX2 setup/running at least? I could share a .cfg file you can SSH to the device to try?
brute force was 1 of my favs!!!
Despite being an OG Xbox owner/Modder, i only discovered it recently. Fun Game!
man thats using alot of memory
nice
What to show next? Switch or the PS3 i got running?
What is maximum NVME capacity supported by Youyeetoo X1 ? I asked them and they said they never tested over 2TB. Does 4 TB or 8 TB nvme work ?
I have only used 1TB NVME (Win 11) and a 4TB USB (Which is bootable/selectable) Batocera Build i created so, until somebody tries 4/8TB i guess we wont know for sure. Logically it should however BIOS could be a factor here also. (which is upgradable/changeable)
missing sounds and other audio
They are there, i had just turned BGM upto 7 and drowned them out. I discovered its better at 2 (If you want to hear the SFX better)
ya same results as all the other stuff
New Channel, Please subscribe if you would like to see more & simply comment on what you would like to see. Thanks Drew
