The reason why the hitbox controller isn't registering left and right at the same time is called SOCD cleaning, which makes it tournament legal. Holding 2 of the opposite movement directions needs to be neutral for a controller to be used in fighting game competitions
It was physical painful to watch him try to WSAD it instead of spending 5 minutes watching a RUclips video.
Blaming the controller because he clearly didn't do any research into what he was buying is great. Leverless controllers are way more ergonomically compatible with our hands than a stick
Reading the comments from all these seething redditors coping over their shitty controller is so fucking funny 😂😂
@@fakename287 it's almost as if they think Dawid is a legitimate hardware reviewer or something, not a glorified, yet charismatic, shitposter of the internet's finest e-waste and junk.

@@RusticRonnieyou can easily upgrade the Mac Studio by putting it in the trash bin and buying a real PC

Calling this a "gaming PC" is definitely crazy behavior, but the N100 is absolutely incredible for many other uses. You briefly mentioned how weak the power brick is, and that's not because the power brick is under-serving this thing. the N100 is EXTREMELY efficient, clocking in at just 6W tdp. It has become a champion for light home server work, NAS stuff, a light and low power way to drive multiple displays, and various mobile application. I have a mini pc with an N100 that I have stuck to the tripod leg of my telescope mount as the control computer for my telescope. Even if I'm taking it out into the middle of nowhere away from civilization (aka away from light pollution) and running it on a battery, the low power draw lets it and the telescope mount easily run for hours and hours
It’s an incredible Home Assistant device.
Its 15W stock, not 6w. Set it to 30w and increase the ram speed to 4800 its becomes wicked fast for surfing.
@@ChrisHoopes1 was about to say that, am intrigued.
It's great for retro emulation and low power games
"Anything is a gaming PC as long as you lower your standards enough"
-Dawid 2024
The N100 benchmarks similarly to a Haswell i5 from a decade ago. But on a mere 6w of power. We've come a long way.
For some context, the N100 performs like a Haswell i5, while using less power than the chipset on the motherboard you had back then, or even the RAM you paired with it. The iGPU alone of a Core Ultra CPU consumes more than this little guy a full tilt.
Well, it performs worse than an i5 purely because it doesn't have access to dual channel ram.
That leverless arcade controller is made more for fighting games. The weird layout for the face and shoulder buttons make sense for FG players because they are usually mapped to the default controls of the most popular modern FGs like SF and Tekken. Definitely a niche controller that is not entirely suitable for most games, but it's what some competitive pro FG players use. It also has some other features that FG tournaments take into consideration like SOCD cleaning, which makes it impossible to register opposing cardinal directions that are pressed together at the same time.
Though, yeah, if you practice enough with it, I reckon you can use it for any game.
I wouldn’t try a FPS with one. Old arcade games and other games that don’t require analog controls, sure.
"modern FGs like SF and Tekken".... Suddenly I don't feel so old, thank you!
@@CheapCheerful As long as they keep adding numbers after the title every half a decade or so, they're still modern in my book. :P
I own this guy, it's on my 4k 60hz TV for streaming anything that I want to it.
As puny as the N100 is, I'd have to say you're wasting its potential.
I would use it as portable emulation. Just have some razer hardware (multiple wireless devices on one dongel) so you can save usb ports. And a bleutooth controller IF this little pc supports bleutooth ^^.
What do you you use to control it? I’ve been looking at some keyboards with built in trackpads for my living room mini pc
That would make a pretty decent home firewall.
N100 is super popular home people who are into home servers. They sip power, they're exceedingly good at trancoding videos (for Plex/Jellyfin), generally low noise and they're reasonable powerful for running selfhosted service.
They're not for gaming, though.
@@ivanmalinovski7807I use my N100 mini system for Plex and it has been great for the past year.
Except it likely uses crappy Realtek NICs. I tried a similar generic N100 mini PC (about $200 on Amazon) for an opnsense router a few weeks ago and ended up sending it back. I could only manage about 600Mbps through it on my gigabit internet.
I have on similar also with an N100 and dual RJ45 that I use as my pfsense box between my cable modem and the rest of my network. I couldn't imagine playing any game on it though.
Edit: Mine has 2.5g realtek NICs so it might be a better model or something
and router
Many of the local businesses use these for powering multiple info screens for customers. Things like food menu's, schedules and general info stuff.
Would probably make for a pretty ok media pc if that cpu can handle live streams and high-res content.
Yeah whenever I see these little cheapo PCs, especially with lots of peripheral access, you just know they are meant for businesses with basically showing slideshows and short videos for things like ads, helpful screens etc. But you gotta love that clickbait title by the seller lmao.
N100 makes a pretty good media PC with it's igpu, pretty popular in the homelab scene for exactly that use case.
@@nadtz So do any one of a number of ARM SBCs. For that matter, there are Ryzen APU SBCs and minis these days which will completely destroy all of the above in any type of gaming scenario.
@@Lurch-Bot Ok and? The question was about an N100 unit as a media PC not all possible options for a media PC.
@@Lurch-Botyeah, but if it's main use case is static (or near static) signage, then the goal is to perform that task with as little power consumption as possible, this thing is like 6w, which is in ARM territory without the added headache of having to use ARM versions of any software you need
What you bought for that control pad is called a hitbox it's a fighting game centric alternative to a joystick. The reason Left and right didn't work at the same time is called SOCD (Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions) and its built into that hitbox's PCB to make it tournament legal as your not supposed to be able to do right and left, up and down at the same time as a joystick can't physically do that, but of course leverless can and that makes the playfield level again.
Destiny 2 being able to run is crazy...
The controller is mostly designed for fighting games. It's a deep rabbit hole to dive into but can answer some of the problems in video.
The "Up" button is usually at the bottom like position of space bar.
Shoulder triggers being that way is because of arcade cabinet layout and later home console arcade controllers.
R1 and R2 being that way again because of fighting games, specifically 6 button ones that use R1 and R2 as default binds for attacks.
"Left" and "Right" but also "Up" and "Down" inputs not being registered at same time is because of "Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions" or SOCD for short and introduced as way to not break games and balance out competition against pad and arcade stick users.
I'm contemplating getting a similar one to use as a media pc.
well for that purpose it should handle job easily specialy if its sporting linux
I Have the T9 Plus variant for my parents for media PC.
The N100 gets 1140 points at cinebench R20, at only 69c ( nice ), and super quiet.
@@ozreshef5182 but can it run crysis?🤔
i have been using mine now for about 5months and it is running great as a htpc. ( N100 16g ddr5 512gb )
I have given it a little more juice in the bios from max 15w up to max 25w and that made a quite big performance boost without getting too hot or loud.
And you also need to adjust the ramspeed up to 4800mhz from 3200mhz when it arrives.
No malware or other shit was found on my ex.
Should be fine. Run Kodi on one, also a couple of dedicated game servers.
Refurb steam deck is only 250$ in Canada. Comes with a controller, a screen, and two track pads included. Can't beat the value with a cheap dock.
I learned that Dawid never used an arcade stick or a hitbox before.
but if you want a budget Hitbox style controller, a Haute 42 is amazing for its price point
What you have there is a business PC designed mostly for running remote applications (think Terminal Services). I used to maintain a bunch of similar ones, they did nothing but RDP in a different system from them. I'm still impressed the Celeron iGPU could game at all, just shows how far the lower end has come.
The last time I was this early, Dawid was still recording the name Linooooooooooode
05:40 Dawid, just press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open task manager instead of Ctrl+Alt+Del and then clicking task manager
Never knew this
@@dmo848 Me too. I usually right click on the taskbar to select and open it.
what i do is pin it on my taskbar lmao and just have it open 24/7
What i'd reallyy like to know is if a: the bios is compromised and b: can you do a rull re-install of windows without having to get drivers from some sketch as hell website?
I have a similar mini PC to this one and the windows install was sketchy as hell so before I did much, I reinstalled a clean windows install.
Microsoft had all the drivers needed without going through the manufacturer. My bios seemed fine and I found some alternatives to flash onto it but never bothered.
You could always use command prompt to dump the drivers from the ssd to a flash drive.
I've got one of these myself. Same casing, same N100 CPU but with 16GB RAM and it came with a 512GB. I reinstalled Windows on it as soon as I got it, but Windows 11 had no problems with any of the hardware so no specific custom drivers needed. It's actually a pretty decent performer for light tasks. Just obviously not for gaming - I use it as a PC to remote desktop to so I can kick off downloads and a few other things, it's low power and ideal for that kind of stuff.
As for the BIOS, not sure how to check on that. But I have checked my firewall logs and there are no weird outbound connections appearing in my logs at least :)
Windows 10 and 11 will install all needed drivers, same goes for Linux with not too old kernel. Everything works, ethernet, wifi, bluetooth. I recommend though either running a cut down version if Windows 10 or Linux, Windows 11 really slows this down.
The shoulder button localization is the best for fighting games. Normally, heavy punch and kick are mapped to the R1 and R2 buttons, so it makes sense putting those next to the 4 face buttons.
Dawid just casually insulted the entire FGC and the community of Hitbox users
Sidenote: obviously there isnt any "offense" taken its just a joke
I've been gaming since just after the dinosaurs died off and I don't know what any of those things are.
@@bligh1156 Exactly, people in a comparatively small community acting like this is some world wide known thing is insane.
I always thought he could test these shitty pcs for fgs since even new one dont need much power.
I like it though 🥰
Oh no. All 12 people
In fairness, I've looked into those controllers a little.... my understanding is that they're NOT super intuitive for the layman.
I would get SO confused by it.
They're not intuitive, but they're very good. It only takes a couple hours to train the muscle memory and then bam, it's now intuitive.
People seem to forget that game inputs weren't always universal. WASD and the Xbox pad aren't intuitive to people who have never used them before either.
No, those are more for people who are serious tournament players in fighting games. The average person is better off buying or building a standard fightstick, which just uses standard arcade controls
This "pad" is just arcade stick🕹 with stick swap into a wasd isn't it? Or arcade stick is out of fashion🎮
@@MRNo.8 Pretty much. There's some additional care taken to make sure you can't simultaneously press cardinal directions (for tournament legality), and the bottom movement button is actually "up", emulating how a lot of keyboard players play fighting games.
"It's so cute and little!"
Is that what she said, Dawid? 😆
FATALITY
5:22 not the first time I've heard that 😅
I love how windows chokes the life out of it not good for it having any power left to do anything else🤣
I've never actually seen 100% CPU utilization in-game (no shaders building). The power of Celeron. I still have nightmares from 2003-ish and Celeron 2. They were famous for combusting and being crap even then.
Edit : oh I didn't know you have such CPUs guys 😳
My i7-4710HQ gets 100% CPU utilization, though partly because of thermal throttling. At least I think it is reaching 100% as I am too depressed to check it lol.
My 7600x gets close with my modded cyberpunk. 90% at the worst😅.
That thing is actually very similar to an 8th Gen U class i7, it's using the exact same cores as the modern i5 and i7, it's just using exclusively E-cores and no P-cores. Microsoft themselves are using a slightly better version of this CPU (the N200) in their Surface Go 4 and it's so much better than the 10th i3 they were using in the Go 3, at least double the performance.
My i5-8600k does that quite a lot
@@elitepauper7400 I have 7700X and a 4090 and it's true the utilization is really high in Dogtown 😳 but not that high.. what mods do you use? 🤔
5:40 you can press CTRL+Shift+ESC to open task manager
thanks now I have a virus
@@areurdytoparty then try Alt-F4
I use a computer with an N100 in it as my daily driver. I really like it, because it is completley silent and extremely energy efficient. I don't do gaming on it and i use Linux on it. I built it myself a couple of weeks ago and it was absolutely worth it!
Mine flies with XFCE4 Mint, which one did you put on it ?
@@Bareego Arch Linux XFCE.
Dawid, the controller you bought is a Hitbox style controller. Its not a terrible layout, and not because its "based on a thing". The thing you didnt get is that the lowest button is actually the UP button. Like a spacebar on a keyboard. So the keyboard layout makes sense.
If you didn’t say it, I would’ve
Who
The left 4 buttons, are they a WASD kind of?
I believe these are popular for fighting games now?
If it takes that kind of learning curve, then it's still a bad product for laymen.
_Looking at a Power Point presentation_
Dawid: This is borderline a usable gaming experience
I would be very excited to see some traffic analysis!
same
It's a leverless fighting game controller and the layout designed specifically for fighting games like Street Fighter and/or Tekken, it's really popular among FGC right now, definitely not for all other genre of games.
Oh Dawid found a Haute.. that's a great find!
It's kind of taking the Fighting Game Crowd by storm, as it's a good alternative to the more expensive stick or hitbox options (also pretty nice for arcade play as well). The main blessing is the cost being extremely reasonable and also very portable =)
PubG kind of looks (and plays) like Tomb Raider from 1996.
I have the older model, based on an N5095, which is lamer :-).
I use it as an NFS server and plan to use it as a NAT box. It is hooked up to my main TV and I play media from it. I can watch 4K RUclips videos on Windows perfectly, although it skips too many frames on Linux. For these uses it is an ideal machine. Dawid did not show the bios options in the video. For my version at least, it is surprisingly feature-rich. If you buy one check the thermal paste. In my case, it was pretty dry.
I have one of these. For casual computer stuff, it works really well and the Ethernet ports are 2.5Gb if I'm not mistaken. It can apparently run Wii U pretty well on Batocera, but I've had no luck on Windows to do the same. For less than $200 CAD, it's actually pretty good for pure emulation and I've used it multiple times to do things that take days since it's so energy efficient (like download a 1TB torrent or converting hundreds of songs and videos into a new format).
Leverless controllers are hard to get used to because they don't operate as one might expect. To use one properly, you have to use your first three fingers and your thumb for the directions, your thumb being 'up' in the intended layout. If you can get used to it, it works. If you just can't, then you are better off using something else. As a disclaimer: I haven't used the new leverless controllers, but I have used other controllers that you similarly have to get used to a complete paradigm shift to use, so I understand the principle.
Watching Dawid dunk on hitboxes made my entire week.
I have an N95 version from Amazon, 16GB, 512GB SSD, does everything it needs to do as a replacement for a fourth gen I7 with a similar level of performance and is good enough for PS2 emulation so happy days.
That thing would be awesome for digital signage.
So, maybe it's a "Gaming PC" if you're an ad executive or a fast food shop owner playing the "Maximum Profit" game?
Too bad this thing has more than 4 GB of RAM, and probably no XP drivers either...
I bet minesweeper runs smoooooooth on this
It's a leverless fighting game controller, Dawid. Now you have to do an in depth expose piece on the west coast competitive fighting game scene.
I recently built my first pc and then my sons. Your content was a major factor in my learning experience. I appreciate your entertaining and very informative videos. Thanks
Hey, this is the exact machine that replaced my Raspberry Pi as a home server. Intels N100 really is great for these applications, e.g. as a NAS, Homeassistant server etc. 👌🏼
Obviously running a headless Linux though, so the 3 HDMI ports are a bit wasted in my application.
I got this PC but the T9 Plus variant, for HTPC for my parents, It's doing greate job with that.
The N100 gets 1140 points at cinebench R20, at only 69c ( nice ), and super quiet.
The Retro part of the video with the stupid controller was a nice add-on. Great work Dawid!
Nice for the alien 👽 pc to make an appearance in the background 😅
It was there last time too
My fridge is a gaming pc too, it has a screen on it
I mean, if it has screen and some kind of cpu it can run doom, soooo...
I can play tic-tac-toe on a forehead... so is my soon-to-be ex friend also a gaming pc?
At least it has some real cooling power..
if it can run Skyrim then thats all you need lol
Can it run Crysis?
Fightpads like that, for the most part, are meant for Tekken. I modified an old keyboard I have to have that layout. Takes a bit of practice but eventually you do get used to it and it works really really well
Those weird Hitbox style gamepad is for a very niche group of fighting game players, it only makes sense in the context of you wanting the tiniest competitive advantage after spending 500 hours learning to use the thing.
500 hours !!! Looks like a diff type of keyboard to me, so i thought maybe it would be ez to get used to after a week or two.
So, the reversed shoulder buttons on the controller has to do with the standard Xinput layout for fighting games. In a six-button game like Street Fighter, RB/R1 is typically heavy punch and RT/R2 is typically heavy kick by default. Because the top row tries to be light-medium-heavy punch and the bottom light-medium-heavy kick, they organized the buttons around matching that default control scheme.
This way, if you've been playing on a standard controller and want to switch to a stick (whether a standard fightstick or a leverless, like what you got), you don't have to reprogram the controls for it to work with the game out of the box.
With regard to the controller having buttons instead of a stick, and the utility of that, there are motions that are fundamentally faster or more precise when you don't have to travel through neutral the way a fightstick does. I'll point out that Tekken, though a 3D game, makes a major distinction between down+back, down, and down+forward. Pressing any of these plus one of the attack buttons can bring out three completely different attacks.
That controller is called a 'hitbox' and it's not based on any old hardware. It's a new type of arcade controller, that quite a few people like. People play in fighting game tournaments with those. It's a very steep learning curve, but it has it's advantages over a standard joystick (as well as it's disadvanages obviously).
You instantly need to inject 4090 into it!!!
How?
@@Michael-Archonaeus it has pci express storage so its possible
@@cl00x3r Well, that would certainly not fit in the case, so you would have to make a new chassis for it then. Would be cool, but the non-upgradeable RAM and terrible CPU would be a serious bottleneck.
@@Michael-Archonaeus I'm sure Dawid would handle both problems with ease :)
eGPU?
9:45. Awesome dig at the Quest 3. 😂
You need that quote on a Tshirt, "Anything's a gaming PC if you lower your standards enough".
The fossil called pentium 2 on my attic will agree with you xD.
I have 4 of these exact same PCs. I bult a 4 node, N100/16GB RAM/512GB nvme/dual 2.5G LAN OpenStack cluster for about $700. It's really unbeatable for a use case like that. It also played Hades just fine @ 1080P in Windows, so you CAN play modern games on it.
Good to hear, I was considering getting something like this for traveling so I can play lightweight games like hades and terraria so this might just be what I'm looking for.
@@JT-ry5ei Get yourself a N100 laptop, these are just as cheap and have a screen (and battery). Just dont get expensive ones, no point getting an expensive low-power computer.
@@JT-ry5ei You might want a N97 mini pc for games, it's about 20% more powerful for the same price (just be sure it has DDR5, not DDR4), or better yet a 4500U/5500U (it should have two slots for ram) - it's a bit hotter and chunkier mini pcs, but the gaming experience would be a lot better.
@@Zysperro Yeah, the iGPU is almost double the clock speed. Same amount of EUs (24), but 1200mhz vs 750mhz. That said, in the mini PC bios, they generally come set to 3200mhz RAM speed. I know mine came with 4800mhz ddr5, so you can change the clock speed to 4800mhz (or try for higher?) and it helps a lot, too. The bios is pretty unrestricted and you can set custom TDPs in there, so you could, in theory, match the N97 in terms of wattage, but not sure if the iGPU would clock up to match.
@@WhiteG60 3200 MHz ram is DDR4, 4800 is DDR5 and anything above that is LPDDR5. You can't change the type of memory you have, the boards support only one. And you SHOULD NOT change bios settings on these things, the only thing safe (usually) to change is the pre-set TDP values. Gaming performance on DDR4 is pretty bad, since it's only single channel, DDR5 is structurally kinda dual channel even with one stick, so you get 50+% performance on DDR5 vs DDR4.
That thing would be great as a control box for multiple screens and/or USB devices in a commercial setting. Low power, plenty of HDMI and USB, easy to tuck out of the way, and redundant Ethernet ports! It could also be an excellent media console PC if it can do 4K video playback comfortably.
does 4k video fine and youtube at least 1440p fine, I found youtube 4k it depends a bit on the video.
I love how you are actually testing most popular games... Even if most of them are jokes...
Those little things are great PFSense routers... or even little retro emulation devices.
It also works as an old people home PC.
Not with realtek nics, much better to get the ones advertised for pfsense routers, don't think I've ever seen one that didn't come with intel nics (for pfsense).
@@nadtz Yea, I know that the Intel Network cards are far far far superior. I have seen some of those cheap devices with PFsense run great, but also many others crash and need multiple daily reboots when paired with Gigabit internet... Usually they work fine if the ISP is up to 400Mbit.
So I agree, but for 120$... it should work fine for some specific not too demanding environments.
@@Coolit2683 If you are already spending that much it just seems to me to make more sense to spend a bit more in case in the future you go up past300/400mbit. Realtek cards do work a lot better in pfsense/opnsense than they used to but considering how bad they were that's not really saying much.
in summer I head to the local library aircon as they have free wifi there as well. I used to take a laptop but I find the screen and keyboard annoying. So this perfectly fit the bill, mounted behind a 24" monitor and wireless keyboard/mouse. People have no idea how zippy this machine is for web browsing, you can have like 20 tabs open and it's still just chugging along.
The pad came with a singular extra switch?
How generous!
It looks like to the right of the fan connection there are pins for 6 wire LEDs and on the other side an unpopulated 4 pin for an LCD screen. Could make for a fun custom mini PC project
a little dedicated emulation box seems like the perfect use case for this little PC.
It's really (genuinely) funny to see you pull out that Haute gamepad and insult it from a place of ignorance. No hate, I understand you dont know, but I was looking at that exact pad a few weeks ago to give as a gift.
I never post comments at all on YT but just wanted to post this to hope get some eyes on/some more info about the Haute.
I feel like you didn't give the haute a fair crack it uses the gp2040-ce firmware one of the most customizable and open source bits for custom code to make the Raspberry Pi Pico work as a controller pcb.
It has a web interface mode which gives you access to rebinding keybinds/pin remapping through your pc's web browser as well as led colour themes and reaction led colours, hotkeys setup shortcuts and so much more. (Meaning loads of people use the gp2040-ce firmware to make there own controllers and even a large range of accessible controllers for physically disabled gamers as they are so open source/customizable)
I feel like its was so hand waved away by lol can't read the manual (which is a fair comment it is dense but with good reason) "I can figure it out" and then go to bring up issues about stuff that you didn't know were that way for a reason/ were in the manual.
The left and right issue "not registering" isn't a issue its a SOCD cleaning setting (Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions) you can switch what mode the scod mode is on and on the LCD you can see it is currently set to SOCD-N which is Neutral cleaning meaning not opposing cardinals will register when hit at the same time.
Some of the modes are
Up Priority SOCD Cleaning
Neutral SOCD Cleaning
Last Win SOCD Cleaning
First Wins SOCD Cleaning
SOCD Cleaning Off
(these are modes that are useful for different games or for certain fighting games as tournaments have Rule sets as to what SOCD modes can be used)
The All button layout is more for fighting games as apposed to other games due to no anolog inputs (thoe can still be used in simpler games)
Its layout is like that of the WASD keyboard layout or the ASD+ spacebar keyboard layout you where trying to stretch to two buttons that are set for the same input (W or space in keyboard layouts are set to Up/jump in fighting games input), (which is shown on the screen when you are showing it off at 13:10)
When talking about the shoulder buttons your meant to lay your fingers across all 4 buttons on the top row and rest your hand meaning you only have to move your hand up and down the controller to access the top or bottom row. (not everyone does this but its can be lest strenuous for some peoples hands)
You are right in that way are the shoulder buttons that way IE flipped left and right (old arcade stick) however its also been kept that way due fighting game short cuts being mostly on the R1 R2 bumper/triggers on a controller so makes more sense for them to be closer to the middle of the haute as they will get more use so more centralized on the controller.
I just kind of wish you did a bit more of a deep dive on it or looking more into what it was you were getting instead of hand waving it all away and being shocked it didn't have a arcade lever.
FGC people are wild man, dude felt the need to defend an Ali express controller so badly he wrote a book about it.

If you love strategy games, there are plenty of good old games that still looks nice, you can play on it that would take hours of your life. Here are some of my recommendation:
1. World In Conflict
2. Anno 1404
3. Civilization V
4. Xenonauts
5. Men of War: Assault Squad (1&2)
it might make a decent streaming box for a media center. The vesa mount would hide it nicely, then add a wireless keyboard/mouse.

1:57 Mocking the current doesn't mean anything if we don't know the voltage. You could have 2.5A @ 110V, and that's 275W, or 2.5A @ 220V for 550W. Both of which would be quite a bit of power.
i like how you see the instructions for the Haute pad and just toss them aside like a real man hell yeah Dawid you the man!
It’s great until he tries building ikea furniture 😂😂😂
@@AnnaDoes i bet its like watching a small child building something with Lego 😂😂😂 I really enjoy your guys videos always makes my day when when I watch a Dawid video
Wonder if these mini PC are good for running streams so you can make your own irl streaming setup with these low power and light weight machines
That tiny thing actually more powerful than my laptop 😂
Awesome! Finally another Firebat mini PC in a video from someone I actually follow!
Also quick tip...
Ctrl, Alt, Delete
Saves much time bringing up task manager
Will it work good as a "smart tv"
the hitbox controller is used by certain people in the fighting game scene. though the joystick versions still heavily dominate the market. those kind of controllers though are more for niche players who know their way around that kind of thing
The hitbox is a pretty standard layout, it's used for pretty much just fighting games, even the original hitbox goes rt, lt
Hard wipe the drive, check and clean up the bios, then load OPNSense and use it for a small home firewall.
Lol, this controller was made exclusively for fighting games and it makes sense in them. There are also several input modes for it so you can change the way priority works. It is a pretty cool controller if you will try to learn how it works and how to configure it.
Always great work! Can't wait for the next one.
Dawid, the controller is a lever less and it's one of the best ones. You should use it to play fighting games as street fighter 6 and tekken8. It's not for retro gaming!
"looks like metaverse" made me chuckle
I've got one (16 Gb model) and it's pretty handy as simple desktop pc. I think the idle wattage is like 5/6.
Btw, you need to set the memory speed to 4800 Mhz in the bios, I think its set to 3200 Mhz by default, prolly doesn't make a whole lot of difference but hey "it's free real estate" .
The only bummer is that it's only HDMI 1.4, so it can do 4k but just at 50 Mhz max.
For ppl running 4k screens or high resolutions, I'd recommend the Chuwi Larkbox N100, got 12 Gb DDR5 but supports HDMI 2.0 and Displayport, also got a usb-c connector on the front. So I'd personally pick that one over the Firebat. Chuwi can be found for around the same price ($120) just keep a eye out for aliexpress deals
Did you reapply the thermal paste? And the cover that allows breathing room?
I use these N100 tiny PCs for home network stuff. One serves as the network ad blocker etc.
The narration is always too funny ! Genius ! 😂🤣👍👍👍
Also, I bought that for running a powerful router in my house, it's helpful that it has 2 Lan port
It is surprisingly powerful for what it is and it sips power.
Wow a another dawid video after 3 days
What overlay do you use to show the FPS, temperatures and component usage?
That seems like a mini server for my mini projects.
I don't expect to run unreal5 on it but at least you can master the network with this little machine and some port forwarding.
2:48 this pc seems like it’d be amazing at displaying the TV menus at Burger King
N100 is not a Celeron it's an "Intel Processor", also it's not terrible it can do some fairly impressive 720p gaming while pulling almost now power.
Great timing!
Just got exactly the same miniPC yesterday. 16 GB LPDDR5, 512 GB SSD.
Great little box for hide behind my tv and run some Kodi with definitely legal IPTV and streaming services.
that tiny heat pipe is adorable 🤩
Can you play Rush Team with that thing?
Dawid buys a lever less and doesn’t know what it is.
plug a gpu in it and see what kind of gaming experience we can get from that cpu.
I'd recommend Dave the diver as a test game for these little "gaming" boxes. It's pretty popular and it has a chance to run ok.
I think by ‘gaming’ the manufacturer intended for this to be used as an ice hockey puck. “Keep ur stick on the ice, Eh!” :)
