Beelink naming is just confusing. I also have a Ser5 Pro with a 5800H, but it's not the higher TDP version. I've been reasonably satisfied with it but it didn't spend much time at stock as I upgraded it almost immediately to 32GB of dual rank RAM, and a much faster and larger 2TB NVME drive.
The SER5 line is one of the most confusing of Beelinks history. The same “generation” has had a version with a 5500U, 5560U, 5600H, 5700U, and 5800H in two different TDP configs. All of these releases at different times within the last 2 years. All while the SER6 and SER7 have also existed and gone through revisions. Makes no sense really but the SER5 line has persisted. I think the model you have is probably one of the better ones since the higher TDP of the MAX really pushes those fans to annoying levels for very minimal gains in performance.
@@EVOTech1 We bought some of these and we got both pro and max versions... After hearing how loud the fans are in the MAX I'll stick with the pro. The performance is almost identical for the same CPU.
Beelink Bosgame and Trigkey are all made by the same company. The 5500U with 16gb ram and 500gb drive is under $250. The 5700U same specs just over $250. For light gaming I thing the 6800H at $350 is the better choice same ram and storage. Has ddr5 and the 680m video. I have been very happy with it. I heard that the 780M was only a small improvement but have not seen a comparison.
Very nice! The 32GB option is really solid for these chips. 16GB can be limiting in some heavy workloads. 32GB or even 64GB honestly make these systems little monsters of pure performance. I mean at least according to the Steam Hardware survey, most people dont have a CPU as powerful as a 5800H in their gaming systems. These are honestly such good productivity machines for the price.
I'm not sure...I don't have a 5800h, got a 6900hx a 7840 and a 7940 and have no trouble hitting 80 watts of usage in most modern games. Fo4 on high does this, cyberpunk, gta-v, helldivers, 7 days to die, and a bunch more also will use up as much wattage as I give these things. Don't know how the 5800h does it.
Those 8 Vega cores really don’t need much juice at all compared to the RDNA2 and RDNA3 iGPUs. With the increased GPU core count and higher clock speeds, modern APUs can really eat up a lot of power if you can give it to them. add on the fact that a higher performing GPU is gonna also increase CPU load and you pretty much can end up with some very power hungry chips. My 7840HS on the UM780 XTX can pretty much do the same. It eats up all the power you can give it.
Im buying one now mainly for gaming stuff and on the go tinkering wih small lvd screen for fun. Which would. I go for. And trying to power it with powerful powerbanks options
Good video. Have you tried the Steam tool "Lossless Scaling", on sale for £4.71 right now in the UK. I'm wondering if that would improve FPS on these mini PCs 🤔
is there any reason why my pc didnt come with the ryzen/radeon sticker ? i got the SER5 Pro and i dont see and sticker on it. i know its a little thing but i kinda wanted it, this is my first go at a pc and i wanted to be all flashy when people come over 🤣🤣
Ryzen Mini PCs are actually really great for servers. you probably read something that was mentioning the desktop ryzen CPUs. because they have an IO die that remains on constantly, the idle power of desktop ryzen CPUs is pretty high in comparison to Intel. it's honestly not a major problem unless electricity prices are inanely high. This does not apply to laptop and desktop APUs though. since they are monolithic dies, they dont have an IO die or chiplets, so the idle power is significantly better, many times beating intel performance at lower power levels.
2 questions 1) can Vega use Frame Generation? 2) the 7840HS/780m vs 6900HX/680m vs 6600/660M. Also where does the 5900HX fit in all this? Thanks so much love your channel!
Vega does not support the driver level frame generation. that is pretty much reserved for RDNA gen iGPUs. the 5900HX is kind of a joke really. it's only a 100mhz increase on the iGPU vs the 5800H. that wont lead to any real performance increase. I would go with a 7840HS over a 6900HX simply due to the fact that more 7840HS systems actually support DDR5 speeds higher than 4800Mhz. some 6900HX systems will let you clock up the RAM as well but you will have a much easier out of the box experience with a 7840HS/7940HS/8845HS system over 6000 series when it comes to RAM speeds. another thing to keep in mind is that the IPC gain between Zen3+ and Zen4 was pretty massive. it makes sense since the 6900HX is essentially a 5900HX with an updated iGPU. the CPU was the exact same really. so the gain from the 6900HX to 7840HS is pretty noticeable in CPU workloads.

For SER5PRO if fan noise is anonying as was in my case, I turned off Turbo Boost and now it never loud for my use case.
Which is better the GMKtec nucbox 6 or Beelink max or the beelink pro?these are my choices GMKtec nucbox 6 is the cheapest from all 3 of these.
I ended up getting the Trigkey 5800h with 32gb/1Tb as it was cheaper than the beelink max with 16gb/500mb. Thanks for your advice 👍🏼🇦🇺

Can you run comparisons of the same games with 720p to see what the gains are vs FSR with 1080p

este video es antigüo, el ser5 pro lleva procesador 5800h a igual que el ser5 max, a parte del puerto display port tambien al igual que ser5 max,

@@EVOTech1 thanks so much!
Can either one of these run Fortnite?
Yes
@@Mrjazzzery thank you!
get at least the SER7....price/performance ratio is so much better!
