I personally didn't, but it is still good information to have, and there are likely a lot of people who will want to know. So thanks for the information! 👍
I'd love to see it running RetroPie or Batocera, also emulating PS2. I'm looking for something small in the $200-$300 range that can run N64/GameCube/PS1/PS2 well, and if this fits the bill it may be my go-to.
for less than $300 you won't find any (MINI PC) console that runs PS2 well. I bought several mini pc's without any luck except for the last one i bought. Of course you can buy steamdeck or ayn odin or another strong handheld but i'm more a guy who wants a mini pc like a mini console. And unfortunately mini pc's are a bit expensive. Bought mine last mini pc console for 400 and it was all configurated, it runs n64/gamecube/ps1 even upscaled and ps2 very well.
It's so good to see an ethernet port on here. I had a Larkbox Pro for about 6 months before I sold it, and one of its major limitations for me was being stuck on wifi. I actually ended up getting a USB ethernet adapter but it was a piece of junk that never worked for me.
Once I got a mini speaker that was pretty powerful, it was about that size with a similar appearance. Back then I though "It's amazing how they managed to fit a whole speaker that is this loud in this little box". Now look at these mini PCs, this is just amazing.
Hi. I really like Your reviews. One thing though which I really find lacking in a lot of Your mini pc reviews, just like this one - thermals and fan noise. Please do it with every PC review, because it plays a big role in a mini pc like this. Why am I telling You this - because I own a Chuwi Larkbox, and that little PC (aside from being really usable as a low powered basic daily driver) has a really annoying fan - it ramps up and down all the time. Anyway, thank You for Your effort, Your videos are great. PS, if You can, do the review for the EliteMini JB95 - on paper it sounds like a good low powered daily driver, but with very little info around the web :)
Thanks for your comment dude. I was gonna buy this one but I was worried that the fan noise is is too loud due to its small size. I'm gonna check out some of the fanless mini PCs
Thank you for all of your content and your videos and you're constantly uploading them. It has helped me go through so much personal problems with depression. I don't know why it just does.
this is te perfect for a lot of people! nice general performance, not bad gaming performance and the best part, low power draw. 18w + 12w (peripherals) + 10w portable monitor Great for off grid houses
Many of these pocket PCs fail with Linux distros on Memory Sticks, so need to stick one with a Linux flavor into it's USB ports & see if any of the ports will boot & perform fine. That'll be another good video 👍
I use a mini PC with the previous version of this CPU (Celeron N5095) as my work PC and I'm amazed how well it performs for such a small, cheap box. Obviously since it's a work PC I've not tried games on it, though!
Games are possible to play with upscaling A.I. This is how it works, you set the game on lowest resolution possible to gain the maximum fps you can get. Then you upscale the game to fit your tv or monitor. I highly recommended "Magic Borderless" to create artificial 720p, you go to modify to set on 1280x720 for 720p. Then use another app called "Lossless Scaling" to throw "FSR" and "HDR" on the game. Graphics cards are overrated and overpriced. Upscaling is king. As long as you can gain fps on lowest resolution possible. Upscaling will always work.
@@100Bucks It depends, if you're very picky it does not work well. I'm the kind of person that totally hates dynamic resolution for example, because it creates artifacts. With this is the same, you don't get the high resolution, you're emulating half the pixels like you were zooming a jpg picture. Sure, for some people it will be ok, but I prefer to have my totally sharp images on screen. When you're emulating a console it's different, because these have so low resolution that if you don't use any filter you will see pixels as big as a dinosaur. I guess it depends on what do you like and how sharp is your eye :)
@@esteveguineueta2328 Resolution is just a box to me and the minimum mark to get HD is 720p. As long as the square is HD it's good enough to upscale to 4k. I'm completely done rendering games in 4k. Upscaling a box is better in my opinion. My eyes are happy with the results. Use 10 percent GPU power to upscale to 4k or use 100 percent GPU power to render 4k. Upscaling is better and you can keep the same GPU for life.
Awesome video! thank you very much!. These mini PCs are becoming more powerful!. I would love to see a Batocera or Retropie, and more emulatores please!
Love your SBC content as always, I feel even though they're performing as good as we've ever had it, I still wish for that little more performance OOTB, there's always something that it can't do. I guess that's how it's always going to be. Keep up the great work.
It runs ps2 games as well, tested on my mini PC with intel N5105, and It running pretty good all emulators, the pcsx2 runs at native res with this CPU. Few games are bit choppyyy like Underground 2 or gran turismo 4 are really hard to run on this device
Hey ETA You should check out the Topton NUC Clones. Comes with an 11th gen i3/i5/i7 With 8gb of RAM only $400/$460/$500 respectively Really good deal IMO. Would be curious to see how the 11th gen Intel Iris XE fares. But with double the execution cores the i7 is actually a good deal at only $100 more
The real question ETA is, WHEN are you getting a STEAM DECK?! Can't wait to see your take and emulation tests on it. I I know The Phawx has done some, but I really prefer your style...any updates?
Great video. Really interesting as ever. Yes, Batocera performance would be really cool to see. Kind of torn between this as the Nucbox 2 to replace my very old i3 Nuc for emulation.
I bought the 1st gen version of this. I ran a web server and a few dedicated game servers out of my house. It proved to be great for those jobs. I shut all of that down, so it is looking for new work .I might make a DiY router out of it.
as a Xbox gamepass Ultimate tied with Xbox Insider I can cloud play on PC with Gamepass, doesn't take anything to sign up for insider program and gives you full access to all the games that Microsoft offers for Cloud Gaming, and it works extremely well. Only mentioning it since you a 8:40 you mentioned the services from those other corporations, Love the videos bro and thanks for all the great info.
4 core celeron? Interesting. Would be neat to see this sort of power in a revised Intel Compute stick. I'm not sure the form factor makes it much more appealing than some other mini PCs as it's already at the point of diminshing returns from it's size and doesn't have the appeal the compute sticks have. Personally i'd rather get a Ryzen based miniPC that's a bit bigger and a lot stronger for not much more money.
I don't think so, this machine is very powerful despite its small size. You can't use size to determine whether it's powerful or not. Like the world's first computer is very big, but very stupid
4 core celerons exist since ages ago, this isn't new. But these ones are the first ones to be on 10nm, so the performance bump is quite big in comparison to the last gen ones.
If it has PD functionality, higher ram option and a USB c port for data and visual output, 4k 30 Hz or higher.. something like the upcoming M6 mini pc.. and hopefully mele PC would follow suit with similar specs and have PD functionality.. that have be great...
If the 6000 series Ryzen was made into this form factor, it would sell like hotcakes. But not sure about the cooling though… Maybe if AMD came out with an Athlon chip with rdna2 graphics, it would be more suitable for this form factor
AMD is working on a 3 core, and 6 threads, Athlon 6000G, Should be released in Q4 2022 ( don't know about what graphics engine they will use, but RDNA-2 would be logical )
Not really, AMD would charged it more than Intel counterpart though, likely a low core count, and still uses RX Flop series/Flop VII graphics instead of RDNA, because Evil Su wants a Titan Killer on every product.
Love your videos. +1 for a follow up video showing Batocera performance of higher end emulation of Gamecube/PS2/3DS...I'd guess WiiU is too much of a stretch
I bought this and returned it... issues for me was: 1) Geforce Now was really choppy (on gig lan) playing 7 Days to Die... even with lowered settings 2) Hardware screws WEAK... When I opened it to see what was upgradable and put the plastic cover back on one screw snapped really easy and then a 2nd screw head stripped. I was not man-handling the screws and and this should not have happened. This was main reason for return. 3) Could not get access to were RAM was to see if soldered or upgradable.
I got a GMK Nucbox (probably one version behind this one). I was impressed with the speed. This is about the size of an orange. It starts up fast. I bought this as I needed a file server. However, they were costing a small fortune and they were just too big. The GMK is a tiny cute product. I don't know how they achieve the price.

It is silent, but it will get noisy. I bought it used on eBay, so it may be an issue with the variant I bought. However, GMK to different variants (including a fanless version). The wi-fi works great. It was running it on 4K. Not sure if I would want to have this running 24/7....
3:50 uh, by the way, windows scaling does not affect resolution preference of the youtube player. yes, the viewport value shows a lower resolution with scaling percentage as a multiplier at the end, but it's not like it's downscaling a 4k video into a 1080p viewport then upscaling back or something like that, or it won't pick 1440p max instead of 4k as "optimal resolution" because of the scaling

At 2:58 You said you checked RAM is "Dual Channel" in HwInfo, But LPDDR4 has 32 bits channels, LPDDR4 config which is similar to DDR4 "Dual Channel" should display "Quad Channel" in HwInfo !
Ordered mine from Taobao last week ,exactly same form factor called zx01, 8g ram with 512g storage for 218 USD, shame it's only single channel, but perform just fine
Thank you so much for posting this video, I spent 2 days looking for it. The computer has an on/off button, but is there a way to turn it on automatically without pressing the interruptions button?

I would like to see if you can do a comparison between Windows 10 and Windows 11 performance and see if 11 is borking the performance of lower end cpu models like this little box. I know windows 11 isn't fully optimized yet either.
Appreciate for the video. In task manager, it shows only one memory slot used. Could you please help to double confirm that it runs in dual channel mode? And will you test 2242 PCIE SSD? Is it Gen3x2? Thank you.
CPU performance is similar to i5-2300 or a little better than Snapdragon 750G, which is not bad at all. GPU is a bit shy of 400G flops, which is like the Switch?
Those are already well served by OEM monitor stand PCs like Dell's optiplex 7070 or regular All in ones. There's also the risk of it being stolen more easily because of size. Maybe pricewise it's competitive, but it has it's flaws.
I thought by now we get a video of it running botacera but I'll make a video soon been running mk x on it and bigbox and some other stuff this mini pc has been fun so far gamecube runs on it and wii at 720p lags in 1080p but not bad for a little pc
To use RTSS on MCBE you should 1. Enable hidden folders in explorer 2. Go to RTSS and navigate to C:/Program Files/WindowsApps/ 3. Go to the folder that starts with Microsoft.MinecraftUWP 4. Add the executable and enjoy!
Did I miss that, or did you not address the noise of the mini-PC? Is the fan active when the device is in idle mode? How loud is the fan during office applications or web browsing? Is it an annoying sound, or is it not very annoying?
I like the small size and might make a nice little mini htpc box with LibreELEC Kodi v19.x. I was also looking at the Asus PN41 with the N5100 (PN41-SYSF541PAFL) that I saw on CDW Canada for $394 CAD. Should I expect similar expectations with the Asus PN41?

I thought by now we get a video of it running botacera but I'll make a video soon been running mk x on it and bigbox and some other stuff this mini pc has been fun so far gamecube runs on it and wii at 720p lags in 1080p but not bad for a little pc
Looking for a similar form factor on Ryzen 6000 APU's. Hope those come out soon?
Ciao ETA, any chance to see a comparison between this and previous version NUCBOX1?
It is an upgrade of the fifth generation, just like the upgrade of "The opposite sex" is very powerful
Sure it is, but...how much better?...that's the interesting point. Worth the upgrade?
@@marcoquaglia1970 I think yes, it's really great
awesome! but can it run Valorant with decent FPS?
It's on par with Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 Odin handheld
I knew that companies will try to market old processors in different way like Mini PC.
How about the temperature of the unit when using it for web-browsing and youtube video playing, respectively?
To use RTSS on MCBE you should
1. Enable hidden folders in explorer
2. Go to RTSS and navigate to C:/Program Files/WindowsApps/
3. Go to the folder that starts with Microsoft.MinecraftUWP
4. Add the executable and enjoy!
Will you do a teardown on the NucBox 5 ? ☺️
cool video so good for my mom to search the web and my nefuew to play minecraft and roblox
Is the Chuwi LarkBox X next? Just heard it came out last month
Did I miss that, or did you not address the noise of the mini-PC? Is the fan active when the device is in idle mode?
How loud is the fan during office applications or web browsing? Is it an annoying sound, or is it not very annoying?
I just bought one should be here Friday whats a good emulator to play some mk2 and 3 and rampage on it
Wonder if it could work as a hackintosh. Also memory upgradable?
Would love to see how this performs using Batocera
And it even got more ports that all of apples products combined!
I like the small size and might make a nice little mini htpc box with LibreELEC Kodi v19.x. I was also looking at the Asus PN41 with the N5100 (PN41-SYSF541PAFL) that I saw on CDW Canada for $394 CAD. Should I expect similar expectations with the Asus PN41?
It has an M.2 slot, i'd like to see this running with an eGPU
Do a video with retropie please. Thanks
Imagine a Nukbox with Apple M1 😍
Let's see it used for dedicated emulation with botacera
I’d like to see this running Batocera with emulation. I’d be curious to see how this thing runs it.
Temps are a little high but celerons we’re never known for running cool the only downfall too this little SBC
Oh my friend this is a good temperature for a MINIPC
