I'm glad to hear the CPU is working well for your studies! The AM5 platform really does offer great flexibility for future upgrades.

I'm not sure. It's odd that they only put the series 2 chips in the Yoga Slim for now. If you wait for the series 2 in the Yoga 7 or 9 it will be one of the best machines on the market. But also Black Friday is around the corner and the Yoga 7 and 9 with the series 1 chips will probably be heavily discounted.

I really appreciate that! Glad you found the video helpful.

Yoga Slim is very nice. You can get the snapdragon chip in that one or the new intel series 2. It has way better battery life but the screen doesn't flip around all the way for tablet mode. Also the snapdragon chip doesn't support all games and apps. So I would say be sure the software you need is supported on snapdragon and you are ok with losing the 360° hinge. The new Intel series 2 chips have solved the battery issue however so I would personally choose the 9i with the new series 2 chips that should be available soon.

It seems that way so far. They still have not responded. If this channel was bigger, they would jump to help fix the issue.

I've had awful service from Samsung as well.

Salam.

It's certainly not a good customer experience. Like I said it's just one SD card but if I had a big media agency with tons of storage devices that failed we would have just bought new hardware by now, from a different manufacturer. The post purchase experience is what keeps customers loyal or forces them to move on.

@notimportant123 The 7i will have better battery if that's more important to you. The screen on the 9i is super nice and noticeably better over the 7i. You may benefit from the nicer keyboard on the 9i for programming. The 9i is certainly better and worth it like I said the battery life is less and there is no HDMI. If you don't mind those trade offs and have the budget the 9i is really good. Otherwise the 7i is a great choice too but as you mentioned it's a bit heavy. My girlfriend has the 7i and she says she wishes it was a bit lighter. I hope that helps!

Yes I think thats good choice. The 8500G is a great value but the 8600g and 8700g are worth worth it if the budget fits. This will be used as an office PC so the 8500g was a great fit.

@@theproshopper then it really is. I only got the 8500g as a gap chip, because my old PC (budget PC from 2015, Intel 660 as core) gave in and I dont have enough money put aside rn to build Something good, so I just got that one, because it was the cheapest AM5 APU. It does OK, but I think I shouldve got the 8700g, especially because of the PCle lane Problem

Nice. Brushed aluminum gang! I love the cold hard metal feel of it. I've built tons of PCs in this case.

Yeah I dont think the lower PCI lanes is that big of an issue like you said. But as a reviewer its important that I paint the whole picture. Too many "reviewers" are really just making sponsored content and dont actually communicate any negative aspects of a product. I'll always provide the good, the bad and my final thoughts at the end.

@@theproshopper Yes thats actually true the PCIe lanes dont really matter unless you add a 8500g with a 4090 😂 which is not reasonable i love this processor myself i have 1 in my machine.

Good point. I'd love to do a few Mini PC reviews. I still think the long-term maintenance or repair is best on a custom-built PC. This one is for business use, so I'd like it to be easily serviceable in the future.

Let me of any better options you have for a similar price. I can cover it in a future video.

Totally get what you're saying. It's hard to compare without a full picture. I just had my laptop right beside it so I was curious of the result. I must say it still annoyed me that the laptop lost lol.

@@theproshopper you should also compare the gaming and benchmark test for stressing the cpu like 3dmark or others thats for the power of the cpu but if want too you can say about the plattform and problems or special features

and sth like overclock and core speed

Very good point. The handhelds are super cool. It's $900+tax here in Canada at Best Buy for the Ally. I got this PC for around 700 all in after-tax. But I think the ally is a good option for those who prioritize gaming and mobility.

I totally understand. We'll see if they can turn things around with the new chips.

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

My unit has been good ever since but I wont be buying another one.

It's certainly over-priced.

Sir would you mind giving it to me😅😅

That's terrible. I would gut it out and test the parts one by one.

@@theproshopper that’s my plan. Of course I’m gonna have to buy a test bench for this, but it’s that or junk it.

I get it :)

Luckily it's been good ever since I got it repaired.

Sorry to hear that. I also have never experienced ram fail before. I'm glad Corsair took care of it, the PC has been perfect since. It's a simple problem for savvy people but it would be very frustrating for someone non-savvy especially on a premium item like the C1. I would still recommend them since the service was great, I'm sure the new models don't have this issue anymore.

Thanks so much for the kind words! They are pricey but worth it.

Try hitting start and search for "Windows Memory Diagnostic" It willl restart and run a test. It will let you know if RAM is bad. Also go into BIOS and see idle temperatures. If its hot at idle it could be a cooling issue. Another good place to check is "event viewer". That will show you the Windows Log and look for red exclamation marks to see what the cause of shut down was.

@@theproshopper the event viewer shows the critical error being a kernel power event ID 41 did the "windows memory diagnostic" and it came up with no issues and in the BIOS the temp is running at normal levels. sometimes my pc works fine for multiple hours other times it will boot up then within seconds of trying to do something it will frezze then crash or just crash then it will be in a constant loop of booting to the bios, after I press and hold the power button and let it stay off for at least 10-30 secs it will sometimes turn on and run like normal other times it will boot up then crash and do the BIOS loop again.

Hey, I know exactly what the problem is, I've had it on mine as well, I wanted to update the Bios before moving forward, but replacing the SSD completely solved my issue, that was until after half an year later, the BSODs occured in the new drive as well, I'm replacing my drive again today, but I will be watching the Bios and SSD firmware closely.

@@landonhwhsnsbsjjYou're screwed if it's a video card or mainboard issue. I'm going through something similar right now and am at the point where my only recourse is to file a consumer protection complaint, because Corsair will not allow me to buy an extended warranty, pay to repair it (they refuse to touch any system that is not under warranty), and they can only get certain parts, not what I need. About 14 months after purchase both the NVME SSD and the GPU failed, so I'm SOL.

@landonhwhsnsbsjj This might be a longshot, but have you checked it's dusty at all? I have the same model as you, and I was getting a lot of blue screens and couldn't figure out the issue. It was also the kernel power error for me. I had never bothered to clean the dust filters, and ever since I gave them a good cleaning, I haven't gotten once since. Thankfully that was the solution for me.

Wow nice. I didn't know they had 4 series cards available now.

@@theproshopper they don't not even a 4080, sus

Yes it is. I'd love a new model but I can't justify an upgrade just yet. They really do well in the long term.

Yes hopefully they will soon. I'm still super happy with my 2080ti but a 4080 or 4090 in this form factor would be insane and worth the wait. You'll love yours once you get it. Thanks so much for watching my video!

I really wanted to like the Nextbase but it just had too many issues. Hopefully the new models are better

Thanks for the feedback. I'm trying to keep peoples attention and this has been the best performing video I have ever made across 3 RUclips channels.

I'd like to try the newer models and make a follow up to this video.

Yes you can pair them and they will record together. Be sure to use the purchase link in the description to help support the channel. Thanks!

😂 i guess you haven’t heard about all the problems with Nextbase DCs (non-removable internal battery does not hold up to temperature extremes. Battery dies -> DC dies)! Do yourself a favor and buy the Garmin or something better!

@@Bacnow I've had Nextbase hardwired in 3 vehicles for 6 years....the only issue I've had is sucker mounts which can be replaced from eBay for £2.50 delivered.

It did have great quality. But in the end I still think the Garmin is the overall best camera at least in these models.

I'm not sure but you can get 2 Garmins and pair them together and they will record at the same time. I have one for the front and one for the rear.

Thanks so much for watching!

It's hard to say. It is quite small so possibly, you can always return to Amazon and BestBuy if it doesn't work for you.

Good price, I'm glad you are liking yours. Thanks for watching!

⁠@@theproshopperI’ve since up graded to the 622 4K $451 !! Works great ! Just hate how you can’t get rid of Military Time !!! Set it to Canada and it set it to -4 but still gave stupid military time !! It’s great otherwise 👍

Yes that's true. But its still only 2 of them and once you place them they are hard to remove. I more meant that it can't be moved and repositioned as much as you need across many cars like If you work at a dealership and drive different cars often.

Yes it is!

Thanks so much!

I'm glad to hear it. That's the goal with this channel.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much!

Not sure. It was super hot and made me worried lol.

I also had too many issue with what was a brand new unit. I had to return it.

Thanks so much, my Garmin is still going strong.
