    Beelink is also giving away a few of these minis. If you want to enter, details are here: x.com/Beelinkofficial/status/1861732172190863766

    it's funny how the Ryzen 5 5500u is stomping the sh!t out of this in all comparisons

    • @neilquinn
      @neilquinn 18 часов назад +1

      5500u is a totally different class of chip for power efficiency

    • @DinoFancellu

      Totally different. N100 and similar sip power. Great for server on 24/7.
      If you wanted performance, especially gaming perf, absolutely go for something AMD

    This is definitely the best channel about mini PC.
    Thank you papa 🙂

    Props for telling the truth about this N150 chip.

    I've been happy with my lower cost N97 GMKtek G5. Thanks for the review.

  • @bryans8656
    @bryans8656 2 дня назад +5

    It's hard to imagine what Intel had in mind with this one. My G3 GMKtec scored almost the same results and it runs Linux Mint flawlessly. I'm okay with the external power supply.

    Very good review, it seems to be something similar to the case of the i3 n300, which when it was launched did not appear on the Intel website for any of its variants, but it could be that something strange is happening that they do not put the chip information on their website.

    A surprisingly dissappinting result from the new N150 processor. Thanks for keeping everyone informed of the refreshed N100. Had intel made the N150 closer to a N200, I suspect a lot of people would have been much happier.

    Wasn't expecting miracles. Wasn't disappointed either. This is exactly why Beelink have come out with a range of Ryzen 5xxx minis with (almost) the same model number. Maybe next year we'll get something worthwhile from Intel? Would love Lunar Lake Lite chip, but not holding my breath!

    N150 when the N200 exsists... Why Intel? Going to hold out hope it's because it too new and the drivers are not caught up yet? Oh....

      I got the N200 eq13 as an ubuntu/casaos based samba NAS. A great upgrade on my previous router USB solution, much much faster throughput, able to host multiple USB drives, and can run most any software, apps etc. Money well spent.
      Most any N100 solution should also do just fine. I got the eq13 as a good price and known for being quiet

  • @aziz555555
    @aziz555555 2 дня назад +2

    I purchased this mini PC expecting it to outperform my N100 PC, but I'm truly disappointed. In Geekbench tests, the N150 scored lower than both my N100 and N97 Nucbox G5 in single-core and multi-core tests. Also, in the GPU test, it scored significantly lower than the N97 and only comparable to my N100 mini PC. Really disappointing.

    • @Robtech
      @Robtech  2 дня назад +1

      N97 and N200 have more EUs on the GPU side. It was only likely to beat the N100 with the supposed higher boost speed....which it didn't.

  • @LiLBitsDK
    @LiLBitsDK 2 дня назад

    thanks for the review... seems dissapointing... the boost specs kinda say it will be better... but then it ain't which is a bit odd... internal power is a PLUS though

      Same in the EQ13 N100 model.

    intel got used to having all the income it needs for r&d for a long time and the last 2 years failing harder than amd in 2012-2014.

  • @israelramirez1617

    n150 a no sense product? even my generic no brand n100 have better performance numbers and includes DDR4 3200 PCIe 3200mb/sec and USBC display port.... maybe we living final days of Intel?????

  • @yousaf.saleem
    @yousaf.saleem 2 дня назад

    DDR5 could have helped with performance?

    • @Robtech

      Adds a few percent to the integrated graphics.

    Get a Zen2 oder Zen3 Mini PC. Is also under 200€. But supports dual channel RAM and its faster.

  • @superangrybrit
    @superangrybrit 2 дня назад +4

    Not having DDR5 hurts the performance too much. Somewhat good pricing and dual m.2 slots is a nice addition tho. Pass. 😐

    • @dualpapayas
      @dualpapayas День назад +1

      There are a couple N100 systems that use DDR5 like the Beelink EQ12, but unfortunately it is just too slow to meaningfully take advantage of the extra memory bandwidth. Like the slide at 3:37

  • @kamolhengkiatisak1527
    @kamolhengkiatisak1527 2 дня назад +1

    It does not make sense for higher clock rate of both CPU/GPU but the real world's performance does not match the higher clock rate.

    • @LiLBitsDK
      @LiLBitsDK 2 дня назад

      yeah found that a bit odd

    • @cirozorro
      @cirozorro 2 дня назад

      Think this is a result of the thermal limitations I would guess. Still a 6w TDP tuned chip, if we could unlock the thermal level, it would perform much better. I think this is akin to the N97 (12W TDP, slightly higher turbo on iGPU, same turbo as CPU but double the thermal headroom). The N97 will very likely outperform the N150, but may need a bigger heatsink or produce more fan noise to keep it cool.

      These rubber covers are also glued on and even more difficult to pluck out

    It is the same CPU with doubled price. Did you really expected something good from Intel after all these years ?

    • @Robtech
      @Robtech  9 часов назад

      Double the price of what? The EQ14 N150 is $10 more than the EQ13 with the N100 on Amazon.com. Yes, I expected a slightly faster CPU in all metrics for the refresh.

    @neilquinn 18 часов назад

    Def a boring cpu. One reason it also is slower than some of the older N100 machines like the EQ12 is because it only has DDR4 not DDR5. The tiny cpu bump didn't really cover that gap.

  • @srvuk
    @srvuk 2 дня назад

    An embarrassment of a machine and the fact that Beelink knew that it wasn't better without DDR5 RAM shows that it's essentially a quick cash grab, at least until people see the actual performance comparisons.
