    Gotta say that is looking tempting, I'm all emulation, I don't want / need tools like 3D Max etc, to see it doing Xbox at full speed is enough for me. So thanks Tim, I feel a future purchase coming on (unless something better turns up).

    • @TeamPandory

      We're definitely getting to that threshold where everything is now becoming possible with even a minipc under 300$... It's a bit nuts 🐒

      ​@TeamPandory Once one of these mini pc's can emulate up to xbox 360 properly, I'll never need to buy another console again!

    If you can get he 16Gb/512Gb version, or even the barebones at the price that Ali sometime express charge then it would seem like a steal, all things considered. 500 nicker though back in old Blighty from the rather less than value Bezos and Co. The i7 11390H is always going to easily outperform the N100 and dual channel has to be the way to go with such a beast. I'm also pretty sure than many a parent would still want that extra power as they aren't necessarily infirm yet, so maybe a tad less of the condescension.

    I'm willing to take my chances on the gaming aspect. I just play WOW for the most part and my screen is only 1080p. I'm not picky. I have the NucBox 9 right now but looking to upgrade to this so I don't have to sub to cloud gaming for a while.

    How in the world do you get this through customs? Every time I look at these Mini-PCs they are too expensive to import without hiring an import agent.

    • @TeamPandory
      @TeamPandory  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They're not illegal 😂
      If you mean regarding tax, then that depends on the country you're in. I hear Germany is the worst for this- but if that's an issue, many of these boxes are now on Amazon.

    • @TeamPandory
      @TeamPandory  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's coming straight from the intel display driver.... I think 🤔. It depends, if that doesn't show I used either the one in software (csgo) or MSI afterburner.

    Brü, show us what it can do with an m.2 graphics card interface. I would like to see it running with a RTX 4060 😂 With that unpopulated M.2 slot, you could open the doors to another level!

    Its a good option for valorant low settings 144fps? how is the fan noise its audible under load and in idle? Thanks bro

    • @TeamPandory
      @TeamPandory  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In idle it's silent, under load it's audible. Under load it's not really noisy, nor is it quiet. Sits in the middle somewhere.
      We'd advise to change fan settings in the bios to come on earlier though.

    Hello I have the same Mini PC with Batocera :) can you share with me your settings for Dolphin (GC/WII), PS2 and PSP please ? You set resolution to 720p or 1080p ? :) thank you in advance

      Hey there! Most, if not all the emulation settings are at 1080p, and mostly stock batocera settings. You can see the resolution set at the top left of the screen. Are there any games that are giving you a hard time?

      Dual sticks will have a boost with a dual memory configuration. Unsure about if it matters too much with PS2 or NGC tho. It will effect pc games more imo

    Let me see your video happily. Splendid! I know that Daytona 2(model3) moves on seeing your video in miniPC for the first time and I come to want miniPC and am wondering whether to buy which now. However, it is not revealed there is not knowledge at all, and how it affects it to see the number of specifications at all. I am thinking to see it in various ways, and to do it in either Beelink EQ12 or EQ12pro. Though I only play a game, the PC feels that it a waste, but wants you to tell me your recommendation! I am sorry in a long sentence.

    • @TeamPandory
      @TeamPandory  ปีที่แล้ว

      Simple is best 😂👍
      Do you only want to play Daytona USA 2? This is probably one of the best price to performance going for model 3.
      The N100 should also be able to handle it, but the N95 needs to use the old graphic mode or it is too slow.

      Regarding n100 minipcs in general they'll all be in the same league. The Chuwi that we reviewed had some corners cut off to save on their budget (like no secondary internal storage), but outside that it's a very nice minipc that stays super cool. It's one of my favourites tbh.
      We've actually just got a gmktec n100 that seems to be a smaller version and cheaper n100, still needs to be tested though but I doubt there's going to be many improvements regarding performance.
