I bought a similar computer to this because of you. Will buy another. The one I have is for Plex and has 16GB for transcoding. I'ma get a pure emu machine for the living room
Nice video and cool to see Android on a desktop with older hardware! Does Android (PrimOS) support dedicated gpu's? Have a passive GT1030 and some old hardware I might try this with in a itx case.. Does it help in Android games? Keep the good videos up!
You should do a ryzen 2200g-3400g shootout on prime os! It would be nice to see if each cpu has an advantage over the other in Android. Also would like to know if the ryzen would support audio through HDMI. Definitely going to try it out regardless!
I got news for you, a lot of mobile games have been updated over this summer and now do not run on x86 architecture. I don't know why THIS summer is when it all happened, but it did, and you may have set him up with an obsolete machine
Pink Droid it’s not x86 anyway, its amd64. Even the PrimeOS help page seems to have no idea what processors are what architecture (only SPARC & Atom are x86 since Core Solo/Duo run, everything Core2 and newer are 64 bit). If this was indeed an x86 install (on a 64 bit machine), performance suffered a bit
I recently walked away with an arm full of Dell Optiplex SFF computers with i5-6500 CPUs, 8GB RAM, SSDs. I threw a GT 1030 into one for a 4K HDR HTPC and an HD7750 into another for a CRT-based arcade. @ETA PRIME have you tested the Retroarch run ahead feature?
Here's the deal u get screen with OS included, Buy Mi TV 4a 32inch around 150USD, run game from 8bit, 16bit, PSX, NDS smooth no lag. It can run Redream, Yabause, PPSSPP limited compatibility.
i have a "thing", it has an atom x5 z8350, 4gb ram, and an intel hd 400 (the 400 stand for 400mhz, that gpu is even worse than the hd 4000 on my thinkpad x230), thankfully i've got it for free, but with 64gb emmc (and no expandibility at all, everything is soldered) windows 10 runs very, very, very bad. maybe primeos can bring a new life in it? (the cpu clock at 1.44ghz base, but with 4 core it turbo to 1.67)
Is the issue with HDMI a hardware issue of this machine or a software issue for Prime OS? I'd like to see if you can get *Honkai Impact 3rd* to run. it's a decent looking action game that you can play via an official android emulator on PC, but they hobble the graphic performance, and I'd like to know if this can get the improved graphics.
ETA Prime, have you ever encountered any issues running Retroarch on Prime OS? I've tried and it didn't want to run at all. I'm think of trying it on Android X86.
What about the fans ? Im in 40c+ country and using speedfan software in windows 7 to handle a good temp 4 m9 radeon hd 4550 Is there anyway 2 control fans escaply 4 the gpu fans ?
How did you got the wireless and Bluetooth running through usb? And from where you downloaded the Netflix app? From Google store it tells me that my device is not compatible.
Dear eta prime I know you said I would install prime os at my own risk and I did. But then my computers partitions got tied up so I had to reinstall Windows. Now to me this doesn't mean anything except I probably shouldn't do something I don't know how to
But will it play Dragalia Lost? I shall go test it. lol I just got a HPZ220 for next to nothing with a 1TB HDD installed,4gb of ram and on board video. I have found that the only wifi card that is truly universal is one made by TP Link. The one in your video always seems to need drivers and will not work on Rock64 products let alone pc's with out drivers. Dont get me wrong, it is a good wifi card when it works The TP-Link | N150 USB wireless WiFi network Adapter just seems to work with out needing drivers on just about anything. It even worked on my Samsung Blu ray player ,which shocked me. THe Tp Link is around $8 USD. If you truly need wifi and nothing will work on the device, then I suggest a Vonets VAP11G-300 Wireless Wifi Ethernet adapter. It plugs directly into the ethernet port and requires only usb power to run. I even use it quite a bit at work for older devices that have no replacement but need wifi. It retails for $20 USD.
I tried to install prime OS into my HP but I think it's not compatible because it has a AMD processor do you know a way that I can install Android and two my laptop
Is there any chance that you can test an amd ddr 3 or an nvidia ddr 3 card with prime os? I would love to see how it works out because those cards are cheap but not so good for gaming.🤠
Anyone manage to get Morph TV working on any of these x86 forks? Tried Prime os and Phoenix and Morph tv works on neither. It finds links super fast, but when trying to play they stay stuck on "loading". RUclips app doesn't work on these either, but does through the browser.
@@denniswood9503 Thanks..I tried the anroid x86..very laggy, then prime os better but laggy too and my wifi speed was only 3mg, Win 10 is running better....I did try bluestacks before on my desktop it was laggy too. thanks for your video, very helpful.
Does anyone know where you could find a hardware compatibility list for Prime OS? I am thinking of making up a machine from old parts and I have a Radeon 7870 sitting around on my spares shelf that could be good if there were drivers available for it.

Not 100% sure but I assumed that the original video had copyright issue. This was my tweet I sent: @theetaprime I had the craziest dream last night. You made a video on how to build a $100 Android Gaming /Emulation PC. But I guess dreams don't come true ;(. #RUclipsCopyrightBotIsBS
Your friend is lucky to have a friend like you! Unfortunately, now I'm thinking of building one of these for myself. Most of my Android devices don't have the power to run most of this software, but it looks like this repurposed PC eats all this stuff for breakfast and asks for seconds.

Great win10/Android dual boot HTPC right here! I love that this channel focuses on great affordable hardware.
I thought I saw this video before...😳 ... Still, good video, thanks for your awesome videos
u have perfect narrative intonation.. always nice to watch/hear ur video
We need a high end version of this! Not just that, but how about we try these new ryzen handhelds with android OS to see if it works out!
I'm having deja vu right now .
Interesting video, I thought of running Android x86 but then I hear PRIME OS.
Now I’m really interested to try it out.
Prime OS looked so clean. I'm considering a new OS on my M11X but I worry about compatibility
I love all the videos and enjoy sharing your channel with friends. So much useful info
I bought a similar computer to this because of you. Will buy another. The one I have is for Plex and has 16GB for transcoding. I'ma get a pure emu machine for the living room
This is a very cool idea. When they update the computes at my work. Going to see if I can get a few to work on projects like this.
I would really like to see a multi-boot video with a disclaimer. I would love to pair PrimeOS, Launchbox, Win10, and maybe another OS.
Do I need drivers for the bluetooth and wifi dongles or the os auto detects it once plugged in?
Nice video and cool to see Android on a desktop with older hardware!
Does Android (PrimOS) support dedicated gpu's? Have a passive GT1030 and some old hardware I might try this with in a itx case.. Does it help in Android games?
Keep the good videos up!
Android x86 builds come with the Nouveau drivers (don't know about AMD but they should support them).
Did I watch this the other day or am I trippin?
I know, what you mean..
I know I watched it too !!!
you didn't
Wish I could find those prices here. That machine goes for 500€ at my local eBay. It's a killer media center and emulation machine for that price.
Haven't you uploaded this before?

which one performs better? I mean power to run dreamcast or heavy games, ur setting or an nvidia shield?
Enjoy your vids but can you start including Super Smash Bros in your tests. Keep posting 👍🏽👍🏽 great work
It's possible the 3.5mm jack of the Lenovo has a TosLink port in it. A lot of their laptops do.
Great video!! I think i understand ... If i gave a lost of game that i would really like can find them for me?

Slightly offtopic but, it would be interesting to see your take on turning a thin client into an android PC and/or emulation machine.

were you able to get sound for Grand Theft Auto, i have sound in Prime OS but it doesn't work in Grand Theft Auto Vice City
I installed it on a mini pc works great but when hooked up to my tv through hdmi. The screen can't be scaled to fit my 60 inch tv. What can i do ?
I noticed at 4:12 that you have the powersave cpu governor active, which locks the cores to the lowest frequency. Have you tried changing it?
Can you run this from a flash drive
I had an 100 watt xeon and a 1050ti in in an hpz200 with the 120-240 watt PSU.

I don't see why it would be a software issue most people would be using HDMI so it's gotta be a hardware incompatibility

Does bluetooth, wifi adapter,graphic card need to install their driver first?
How did you got the wireless and Bluetooth running through usb? And from where you downloaded the Netflix app? From Google store it tells me that my device is not compatible.
My USB WiFi adapter isn't working in prime os but it works in Windows any solutions?
Does this build necessarily need an SSD or will a hard disk work as well? Is there a particular advantage to an SSD for this android build?
I can't seem to get any games to load. Just a blank screen.
Wait a minute I have to like this video twice. Good Idea Prime re-upload video again and get more likes! 😉
Dear eta prime I know you said I would install prime os at my own risk and I did. But then my computers partitions got tied up so I had to reinstall Windows. Now to me this doesn't mean anything except I probably shouldn't do something I don't know how to
I did follow your tutorial almost except the partition to ntfs wasn't working on rufus.
Also this isn't a complaint this is for everyone else. Don't do this unless you know what your doing at your own risk.

Would Prime Os work on a mobile device like the GPD Win 2? Could you make a video on that?
