Good Morning Fans and Friends...
Second! And good morning!
Good evening i m swiss and i don t unterstand all what you say but still love your videos
Shawn P. So far so good!!!
Good evening for me ;P
Joel Bregy
Swiss too xD Lol keep it going, you'll do better in the future :D
This little thing is better then my pc that i'm using right now ;-;
Thats a bummer dude...
What's even worse is that i won't be getting a new one until i will go to work myself! (that will happen in about 8 years) I think i will switch to console gaming...
I'm 100% sure yours is better than mime .. Mine can't even browse the web with out lag. My PC has an AMD e2-1800 apu .. Its a joke
that sucks bro too bad u dont live in aus i wld be more than happy to help ya out, cause it aint hard to beat this pc.
My PC exploded, so I'm using a surface pro three until I can get it repaired
just an opinion, but I think you should use medium (or even low) presets whenever the computer you're testing doesn't achieve playable framerates at the higher settings so people know what they can actually run, because knowing that it can run tomb raider at 9fps on ultimate doesnt tell us it can run at playable framerates on any of the lower settings. Consider making this change on your next pc testing videos.
Was thinking the same
Thomas Wilson well, 1080p has kind of become a standard. But sure, why not. You could play in windowed mode so, yeah
MrBDayz Well yeah for computer gaming it's the standard nowadays. But even the "Next Gen" console's aren't even running 1080p. At 900p it would be a much better comparison between those two in my opinion.
Like I said we are changing the way we test, but we already have tested systems using our old ways and we have one more before we change.
Tech of Tomorrow ah, cool =)
and Luc Smeets if you want to compare it to the consoles, then yes, 900p would be the res. to go.
Not the world's smallest Media PC, that would be the Raspberry Pi.
Sorry dude, no VGA worth talking about on that, so NO...
Tech of Tomorrow It has hdmi.
Tech of Tomorrow In my opinion a media PC is for watching tv and movies, which the Pi does quite well.
Colton Blumhagen Hes talking about the graphics processor.
TheLameTechGuy Exactly.
The title is gaming pc yet 37 seconds in the video you say it's not..
That's why there's a "?" At the end of the sentence. But I do agree with you, the title is pretty misleading.
This is like Deja Vu but on a whole different level haha
Its like the Iron Maiden song,,,,
I used to have one of these in 2004, it ran Metro Last Light just fine on ultra on my 10k monitor.
woah
LIIEEEEESSSSS
Yeah but 2005 soon came around the corner and 10k was obsolete and 20k was the new standard. I had to sell mine as this thing couldn't play ultra at that res above 60 fps. I was getting about 40-50fps and i swear i could see the frames refreshing so i sold it.
I know maybe it was the screen which only had that lame 550hz..
Daniel Tevi Man can't believe I never thought about that! I got the Gigabyte Brix 2.0 and i still noticed the refresh rate but it wasn't as obvious. I had to live with it as the pc cost me 100k! Worth the price when you are getting a intel celeron 1019Y @1ghz, 250gb HDD, 1gb ddr and 4 gtx 980's. Sure there was some bottlenecks but man was this pc a beast m8!
I just don't understand why you wouldn't optimize the settings in the games... Its not meant to be playing the lastest titles at 1080p highest settings.
I have three GigaByte Brix PC's, the smallest one is around the same height/width of a Mcdonalds Big Mac only squared and has an I3 CPU and built in mini projector. You can hook the thing up to a TV or monitor or use it with the projector, then lastly you can power off the PC completely and hook any other device up to it via HDMI and use it as a mini projector.
The other two Brix are the exact same size as the one shown here, one of them is coloured red and the other green. The red one uses an AMD APU with 8gb of DDR3 as well as a separate discrete AMD GPU with 2gb GDDR5. The GPU has slightly less stream processors than XB1 however it runs 160mhz faster which puts it on par with XB1 in performance which is amazing for something that's smaller than a 360 controller. The green one uses a mobile Intel I5 with 8gb of DDR3 and a custom Kepler GPU with 1344 shaders and 6gb of GDDR5 which makes it around twice as powerful as the XB1 and close to 2x the performance of PS4 which I think is amazing as these things fit in the palm of your hand and shorter than a 360 controller and 2 and a bit inches tall.
This Brix is more designed for office work as it has a CPU four times more powerful than the PS4 or XB1's CPU's however the GPU is quite a bit weaker although it would be able to play these games shown here at 30fps if you lowered the settings to high/medium instead of ULTRA. So more an office PC however there are certain games that would run well on it like Dota2 or League of Legends as not all games need to have demanding visuals like Star Citizen.
I love them as they are really unique however if you have the space you are better getting a desktop, I game on a desktop with an i7 5820k and TitanX
I think for people interested on this PC it would make more sense to do benchmarks at lower resolutions and graphics just to see wich games are actually playable.
You are the few youtubers that reply to other people's comments.More youtubers need to do this.
5 enemies, 5 bounties
You should have included one of the most important deal breaker factor when it comes to Brix mini pc units... the loud unacceptable noise it emits.
For that size it performs really impressive.
Will there be a amd version of it?
I think the amd APU could perform better
You know, provided you have a 720p tv, this could actually be a pretty decent steam machine. Shove steam OS on it and lower the settings down and you have something that will play most games at 30+ fps on your tv, which is all any other console seems to do, so you get console quality gaming but with access to all the pc exclusives in a very small form factor. I like it. Depending upon the price, which won't be cheap considering the i7 in there...
My 2007 Mac Pro Dual x5365 gets only 11,000 on Geekbench 3. We've come a long way to put 12,000 in such a tiny machine.
CPU is OK but the Intel GFX part takes us back in the stoneage... :-(
Nice review mate.
If i'm not wrong, i saw a version of this pc that will come out later with a proper dedicated cpu (nvidia 8xx or something), making it ready to become a steambox or a micro gaming computer.
Title: worlds smallest gaming pc. First minute of talking: "any first person games it gets too hot and doesn't really game". This is the world best video.
You COULD Essentially lose the wifi card (use ethernet) freeing up the express bus to hook up an External GPU kit with like a gt750 and play those games at 1080p high or even ultra settings. Just shows you how much farther we'll go when heat, and cores are improved---actually cores is not a factor--HEAT is.
Just to point out: One of the benchmark games was incorrectly titled. "Diversity Original Sin" is actually called Divinity: Original Sin
How does this compare to the Mac Mini? Considering that the Mac is smaller than this.
i hope we will see some new enthusiast gpu released soon like NVIDIA 8 series desktop gpu, i know there was problems with the die shrink but the rumor was there was 28nm cards coming
I bet this thing would be ideal for loading up some emulators and rocking out with old school games!
Perfect for that...
"Worlds Smallest Gaming PC" *FIrst sentence* "This is not really a gaming PC, it gets too hot"
They should dump the Intel 5200 IGP and use a mobile gaming embedded GPU like the GTX 960m or 965m. That would be plenty powerful enough to run every modern game at reasonable detail at 1080p and run cool as well. And where the heck is the CPU? Mounted underneath the motherboard?
htwingnut
One of the AMD Kaveri APUs would have been a better balance of GPU and CPU power.
Though this thing is still more powerful then any available configuration of the present Mac Mini.
That's why you get the Alienware mini PC thing. It has a discrete gpu
With the evolution of PC's, do you think that external GPU's are going to become a thing in the future?
I personally think it would be a fantastic thing to see a small computer/laptop which could play games at higher quality with a workable frame-rate.
Just the thought or having an external GPU slot with it's own power supply would be an amazing thing to see.
I love how you still went ahead and benchmarked this up against some intense FPS. That is staying true to yourselves no matter what! Haha!
You can see that for DOTA and such though it does play over 30 FPS....
world smallest gaming pc?
-> "this is not a gaming pc, is a media pc"
Nice title for the video 👌
haha I love how you said "Can you build a PC this small?"
if it's mostly for media stream just get a media streaming chromecast, apple tv, amazon fire or roku.. not sure i see the market here honestly...
I'm really glad to see added into the review benchmarks to more "mainstream" and played games like Dota 2. Obiviously the review is always top notch in every single way (especially the music). Nothin is better that say keep rocking man!
Thanks bro...
I wish they'd do some practical testing, 1080p games on high on this thing? Obviously not, crank the resolution and settings down to see if it can run any of these games with PLAYABLE fps
im BEGGING you, can you PLEASE do a review on the new ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VII Formula?
Are you on your knees hands help up to the sky?? Okay, okay....LOL
there you go. another quality video from you. keep up the good work. from Malaysia with love.
you could have probaly lowered the settings and got playable settings. Everything dosent have to be maxed out at 1080p
1:20 that hair lol
the next gen mac mini better have similar specs to this. Apple has no reason to under-power their mac mini's due to the size of it's form factor after seeing this.
For the first time this channel is Tech of Yesterday, not Tech of Tomorrow. This thing has been out for several months.
How do you think a ViDock would get along with this tiny pc? Do you think there will be a huge huge fps increase and do you think the system will heat up? Also I don't get what the R is in the cpu...
At the beginning of the video, reviewer states it runs too hot if using for FPS but excellent for multi-media computer. So the headline, "Worlds Smallest Gaming PC?" can be answered quickly with a 'No."
This seems like the perfect little computer for my parents. Takes very little space, looks "light?", and certainly capable of Netflix and/or similar video streaming jobs.
I do wonder if this little Brix would even require 16Gb of RAM...
8GB is working like a champ...
this would make a great emulation station. why don't you benchmark games like Windwaker with that 1080p high-def patch?
Elric, is there any chance you could do some review on laptops that are capable of some pretty decent gaming and video editing?
The most recent MSI GS70 looks very capable but I'm getting conflicting reviews, I need a complete review with teardown and heat output.
Hope you can start reviewing some laptops as you are a great reviewer and I'm looking for a powerful laptop that will do me for my college work
Thanks!
Stop calling PCs with Intel HD graphics "gaming PCs".Desperate for corporate support much?
That's cool! If you use low settings on games, you might be able to hit 30-40fps probobally (just estimating)
seems a bit overkill for a media pc, an i3 or an AMD APU would be good enough for that while also cheaper, what s this thing REALLY useful for?
It's not worth it. It's too expensive. A Mac mini gives you much more value for your Benjamins.
They're going to have to make a new form factor name for computer's of this size: M-PSU, possibly. It looks like a mini PSU.
might as well wire up dozens of those to build a supercomputer...
I would come across a 600 buck media PC 2 weeks after I built a 600 buck rig for media. This thing is slick through!
Whoooaaa! Guys! You don't understand! This is a game to slideshow converter! THE FUTURE HAS ARRIVED! (the future sucks.)
obviously with Iris Pro Graphics is not design to play games at high settings, most will be medium with no AA to help frames.
They need to make a version with an APU in it. That is basically what they were made for.
If only you could add a dedicated graphics card...
You mentioned Dota alot, do you play Dota and watching the Internationals?
in the benchmarks you missed spelled a games name its called Divinity: Original Sin
This PC is good if you want to play Games like Team fortress 2 and CS:GO should run smoothly after tweaking around with the settings. Yeah this thing's not gonna run bf4 on ultra at 4k (obviously). This PC is good for casual gamers who want to play classic games or have a chat in Skype or just people who want to use it for general use. It's size is a plus as well as you don't have the stress of carrying an additional bag around with you.
This little computer looks pretty good, but does it blend?
Is this good for Half Life 2, Portal 2, Team Fortress 2, Counter Strike: Source, Garry's Mod, Trine 2, War Thunder, Plague Inc. :Evolved, BattleBlock Theater, Goat Simulator, and Surgeon Simulator 2013?
Oh yes, it will play those pretty good...
Tech of Tomorrow Thanks. :)
Tech of Tomorrow I forgot, what about DayZ or Dark Souls II?
StuffTubeAmwesome If your referring to DayZ standalone you haven't got a chance. I've seen expensive rigs struggle to play the game. It's due to the shitty engine.
BerserkDeathlord ^^ doesnt have a shitty engine just terrible optimazation right now because the game is literally in serious early alpha bud
I'm watching this show for tech stuffs and for the music. Hahahaha!
If you think that this is a good media pc then you should focus also on the noise. That thing doesn't look like it would be quiet.
Tiny PC's? People like those? I like my PC's nice and big and able to show off. Nice review though Elric! Hope you feel better! :)
"Connect to the ethernet through its included ethernet port" @ 5:49
Why they don't make a brix with a a8-7600,or a10-7700 or a10-7850k ? It would be suited for gaming too.
0k, why not call it for what it is?! Only setback, for the Mini PC is not having the ability to plug-in a video adapter.. && the on-die graphics, weren't really reviewed; and what about the PSU, the power supply? Anyway, tnx 4 the review; pretty cool! =)
*Edit*: Oh and btw., it looks like the perfect unit to use one of those (Western Digital) HDDs, which have the SSD slapped-onto the main disk (two-in-one).
P.S. For example, found this: "In comparison to the HD 4000, the graphics core has been modified extensively. The Iris Pro supports DirectX 11.1, OpenCL 1.2 and OpenGL 4.0. It also features an improved decoder for 4K videos and the fast Quick Sync encoder."
My mom bought a 1000 dollar laptop with a Intel Celeron 1.7Ghz no GPU 8GB or ram, **Sigh** i can't believe she wasted around 800 - 900 dollars.....
***** No, it's true, she got ripped off/scammed because she thought it was good and worth the price, I feel bad for her :/
***** I told her to get an Asus gaming if she wanted to spend that much, but she said "I don't want it, I'm not a gamer".
And I tolder her "Than there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WHAT SO EVER you need an 1000 dollar PC". But hey, she's ignorant. And now she feels bad about it, to bad she didn't listen to me :/
basje 1234567890 It was on amazon.
Sounds like the asus Zenbook
If u put Steam OS on it and used the streaming feature from another PC would it perform well?
Bring a instrumental version of The Human Zoo to spotify Elric!
Can I cook on it?
Gaming PC? That statement is laughable. Maybe w/ emulators of consoles dating back no earlier than 18 years ago.
I thought it was a power supply when I first saw it LOL
It may be good for Star Wars Old Republic at High Res as it in Cimatic Format
Diversity: Original Sin - Affirmative Action edition
Use the display port for more performance!
Just curious about Intel Iris Pro performance for gaming. By looking at the benchmark result, it's likely not for gaming. Perhaps it's better for video/graphic editing?
if you can't play on high settings that doesn't mean that the pc is bad for gaming,try putting it on medium,i never had a dual core processor,and this guy says that the quad core i7 is bad for gaming..
3.9 Ghz that puts my laptop to shame
It would have been great if he reviewed the one with the desktop gtx 760
not for $600
I wouldn't call that gaming... It barely gets above 10 fps on most games...
The title says gaming pc, but in the first minute of the video you says it can't play most games???
I would have liked to see how some of those games would have faired on low/720p gaming.
this would be good to store and play your emulators and roms on definitely.
You're paying $700 for a non working system! It doesn't come with ram, nor a hdd/sdd. Even a $599 Mac Mini will come with 4gb of Ram and 500gb hdd, Ready out of the box. Plus the Mini's power supply is built into the system, not a "wall-wart".
they have a new gigabyte brix pc with a gtx760 gpu and its not the mobile gtx760 its the actual gpu from the dedicated cards
How can you call it a Gaming PC when it FPS is so LOW ...
Intel Graphics are horrible.Would have been better to simply use a A10.
Holy crap! Screw the PC - where can I get this guy's shirt?!?!?!!?
The Zotac machine you reviewed earlier is a better product.
Passive cooling has really let down the BRIX Pro
if you have a good gaming pc and network you could use steam inhome streaming to play more demanding games
Would this be good to run Maya, Photoshop, Ai, After Effects, Game Maker Pro? (Without over heating or anything)
why would you put it up to highest setttings, even my £800 pc cant run some of these games maxed out 1080p. it should be compared more to console grade settings so like low to medium.
Why they are not using an AMD APU wich is better for gaming than an i7 ??
I don't know ask Gigabyte...
Tech of Tomorrow ....incidentally,good video man !
This would be a great porn box xD Hidden behind a monitor, quiet, portable...
You could bludgeon someone to death with that! XD
Wouldn't consider a PC without an dedicated GPU, a Gaming PC.
Wow... $400-600 for this. My first PC build was just under $500 and could run almost any game at 720-1080p at least 60fps. Games like LoL and DOTA ran at about 120fps. This is a major rip off even for a media PC.
This could replace the HP N54L Miroserver I use as a MCPC. only problem is, with the HP I can have ATi graphics........ and 4X HDD's.... so still contemplating the upgrade..
Well....is it loud?
