I didn't even know mini PCs were a thing! I've never owned a PC, dunno how to build one, intimidated, priced out too. But this seems like a solid way to enter PC gaming at PS5 prices! Notwithstanding extra SSD storage, necessary peripherals etc. obviously. Definitely peaked my interest!
Definitely a great entry point to PC gaming. Don't expect to play the latest AAA games at ultra settings, but you can play pretty much anything on this and enjoy it!
I own to gaming pcs one with a 2090 ti Nvidia and the other with a 3090ti Nvidia graphics card, but I don't want to catch a virus and it ends up stealing my financial info.
I just discovered mini pcs today because my computer was taking forever to render a video earlier. This whole breakdown of how mini pcs really work just gave me so much relief. I ordered one and I was scared. I can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks!
My ultimate dream is a mini pc like this. At the moment I’m rocking an sff acer pc that I’ve upgraded myself while I watch mini pc technology get better and better. One day, when the time is right, I’ll make the leap. For now, I love watching videos like this. Thank you so much for covering this niche in the pc market. ❤
I like the fact that it can handle my daily tasks, I play games on a console and I'm a senior, I would get this. I went to the link you have for Amazon, so the sky's the limit. Thanks for the video.
It has now been a year with mine. It runs smooth and it runs well! Handles everything you throw at it. Best part is that it is very compact. Recommend this for anyone looking into it.
Every time i think about buying a mini pc every 2 weeks it seems a new review comes out for something better. Seeing as i want it as an emulation system for retro and ps2 gamecube as the maximum, i guess i should just wait a few years and pick one up that meets my needs for about $100
I have the Acemagic-Acemagician AMR5S with the Ryzen 7 5700U, 16 GB RAM and 512gb SSD. I've installed Bazzite on it and runs triple A games at medium settings with no problems. Also emulation is up to PS3 flawlessly. Paid 217$ with Temu coupons. The week after I got another one for my 10 year old daughter and it's perfect even for school tasks.
I'm thinking of getting one of these mini computers to use in the living room with my TV. Its main use will be for gaming. Looking at the Beelink SER6 Max with the Ryzen 9 6900HX, 32gb RAM, and 1tb SSD. Basically the same as in this video except with a different CPU.
@@blueskies1014 No because for about the same price as a SER6 I can get a new NVidia 4070 graphics card to replace the dead 1070 that's in my gaming computer now. So in the end, I'd have a more powerful gaming rig and can still do CAD work too. The only negative is the size difference between the two setups.
I'm conviced we don't deserve dweeb, the skits are thought out, the video presentation, the lighting setup, the product breakdown, it's just so much effort I kinda feel bad watching it for free
The more I see one of your mini PC reviews, the more I think about buying one. I'm also very concerned with efficiency in the end. And a mini PC uses very little power, space and resources compared to a desktop PC. Again a very good video that makes me further consider torturing my wallet 😂
These mini PCs tend to be far cheaper and also more portable than regular desktops. It sounds too good to be true, so is there a catch? Like a hidden cost or something like that?
The catch is that they are not really upgradable. On a desktop PC you can get new processors, graphics cards, etc. These are by once, use it, then get rid of it when it's time for the next one.
I bought this pc for my wife a few months ago and she couldn't be happier with it! She's not a gamer, but uses it for light office work, writing, emails, spreadsheets, browsing and watching videos. It's super reliable, never crashes, never freezes, never stutters, never overheats. She loves it to death. It's a great little work horse!
I really want this PC!! It's exactly what I'm looking for! A small enough PC to fit in my suitcase but with the power to run all my modern games as well as emulation games!!
My SER5 MAX is my main rig right now and it's amazing. I've thought about the SER6 MAX later but I'll most likely wait a while. Going from the 5 to the 6, both MAX models, seem very similar.
@puzzledwhale2376 OH yes. I use OBS, I myself am still learning. Sometimes at 1080p on certain emulators, while streaming or recording it will lose some frames in heavy areas but it hasn't gotten bad for me. The 5 MAX is cheaper, the 6 MAX or above will give more room than mine but are a bit more money.
me too i just need a moderate gaming mini pc that uses far less wattage than a rig can yah recommend one that runs Genshin impact, some Blizzard games, on atleast low
Great review! I love mini PCs. Compact, mostly quiet and nowadays there are so many available which are able to play games at 1440p mid or high settings. One thing though, TechDweeb. You have to stop call the USB port an Ahole. 😂 They are just doing their job. 😅 anyways, great channel.
@@TechDweeb Yes to the banana or the honey, but no to the Fluff. Maybe to a peanut butter honey and banana sandwich. (PBHB) A daring sweet tooth might try a peanut butter Fluff and (Hersey's squeeze bottle) chocolate sandwich. (A chocolate Fluffernutter.)
I have a beelink 3 and it still runs awesome. With game pass or GEforce now you can play all major titles those platforms offer. Im about to add a external GPU to it and it will be a legit gaming computer.
So I recently bought this PC and whenever I try to play a game the drivers crash. I have tried everything that google can come up with to fix it. If anyone else has this same PC and has fixed this problem please let me know.
If it can run off a 65w usb C charger that would be really convenient. I've been thinking of a couch side PC to use with my xreals because android 13 and retroarch doesn't like SMB and if I'ma get an ugly mount might as well investigate a sexy box.
Can this run Elden Ring or at least everything on one of those 12TB gaming drives? I don't need 1080p \ 4K perfection or anything and I tend to mostly play single player stuff.
I have to take a look for decent gaming mini-pcs, that way I can have my laptop with just a few games I really want to have kind of like on the fly or just focus it more on recording/streaming, not to mention to have an excuse to probably sell some of my retro stuff in the future, I probably have to save a good chunk of money of course, but if I can have some gaming PC stuff that way like a "console" then I can't complain in the long run, so... if there is a better alternative let me know to have options when the time I can afford one of those comes.
You linked to the cheaper 16gb version while seemingly showing and testing the 32gb version. Really enjoyed the video and I don't necessarily think it was intentional but it's not a great look in any case.
900p is probably where I would target. I don't even mind 720p at the right distance and monitor (stream from my 5800x3d and rx 6800 while using my old 1660 ti for nvenc ironically to my steamdeck lol)
Probably not everything. I've been looking for one of these that can play Metroid Prime Trilogy at native resolution (wouldn't dare 1080p due to issues those have on discrete graphics cards rather than onboard) but it doesn't seem that's possible yet. I'd likely have to build one bigger, maybe a NUC with an older card, possibly a 1070 or a 1080.
I'm interested in a mini PC for emulation and retro gaming (mostly MAME and other consoles) Does the Beelink work for emulation and retro gaming? Does it come with emulators and Roms preinstalled?
I’m not a PC gamer and really just like emulation but with the price of these mini pc does it make more sense to build a pc with a dedicated graphics card to play the higher end 3D systems like PS3, Xbox/360, Switch, etc? I’ve seen your budget PC build videos (thank you), do you have a list of recommendation parts for an emulation build? I have a older i5 with a 1660 GPU. Should I bother upgrading?
Laptops are good if you also need a monitor, and you do actually intend to use it as a portable PC. If you're just going to slap it on a desk and leave it there a Mini PC is probably going to work better in the long run.
I love Beelink. I got an SEI8 8th gen i5 chip mini PC play older and lightweight games that I didn't want to use the power consumption and heat generation of my big gaming rig and I absolutely love it it's fast and snappy and wonderful and good emulation as well
I been having an issue with a notebook that I turned into a batocera emulator, the HDMI output is not showing up at all Alli get is avls-1 or something like that and automatic
Hiya! I got that mini pc, same specs, except mine is the 16GB RAM set up... do you guys think it will perform as close as this one? I mean with the games, but most of all the photoshop and video editing? I'n a graphic designer. Thanks!
@@Mustis91 minisforum in Europe has a few deals close to that price. The em680 with soldered RAM goes for 460 for 16gb+500gb ssd, packs an r7 6800u. The UM690s barebones goes for 419, has a 6900hx. The UM 773 lite SE has an r7 7735hs (r7 6800u refresh with RDNA2 graphics, look at the last two numbers), which goes for 409 barebones. Not quite a fully specced PC below 400, but at least it's a lil below 500 for a working basemodel.
I'm buying the strix point varient! Comes with 16 cu igpu. There ll be a strix halo with 40 cu which might outperform rx 6600. I was about to but 7840hs but it was like a 1650 as an i gpu actually at high watt it performs like 1650 super. In some scenarios worst than 1650. Strix point might perform like 1660. I'm buying 1 :). 20 cu rdna 3.5 modle would have been better but there is only 3 varients for 8000 ryzen mobile apus 12 cu 16 cu 40 cu. Why not :( 25 cu modle!!! I have rog ally so i can clearly say that 780m at higher wattage is absolutely a godlike thing. Buti wanna replace my whole studio with a mini. (It really takes too much of my desk space. Beelink is actually has better cooling than nuc moonstone. And pricing is better as well. Nuc Moonstone with ubuntu and 32 gb ram 1 tb ssd costs around 1000$ that 😢 no good.
I was hoping to be able to comfortably run mario kart 8 deluxe at x2 resolution, using yuzu or ryujinx, but this appears to require some tweaking of settings, or possibly even higher TDP (if I understand correctly you'd have to get a higher wattage PSU first). Have you done any testing with that title?
Hey TechDweeb! Really love your content. This is my first question I have ever asked you. I more or less have a shell of an original Daytona Twin Cab. I am adding racing wheels and going to link up two PCs to run simultaneous racing. I was told the minimum specs would be a 6 or 7th gen i5 with a 1050ti 4gb video card with 8gb of ram and an SSD. So do you think this little mini PC would be every bit as powerful as the PC I just described to do this same task. Would be great to do all of this with a couple of these SER6 units. Just wanted your take. I would be plugging in Force Feedback Thrustmaster T248x and p racing wheels with pedals and wanted to output them to 27" 100hz 1080p monitors. It would emulate up to techno parrot and Sega Model 2 and 3 I believe along with MAME. Not pushing this for iracing or current AAA racing titles like horizon or anything like that though wondered what the limits would be for exclusively racing titles. Thanks in advance and keep up all the great vids!
This wouldn't be as powerful as a 1050 ti. The performance might be similar, but I don't want to make guarantees. It should be fine for your technoparrot and MAME stuff though.
Great video BTW but I'd like to let you know you made a little error on the back connectors. You said 2 USB-C holes but they are USB4. USB4 open a lot of nice things like eGPU with an adaptor and fast external storage options
I like to use My minipc when my main machine is running hours long renders. I browse and play little games on it till the big bertha is done her render. They also make GREAT kids first computers put some old games on it and stuff for homework a little monitor kb and mouse and bam you got yourself a nerd goin! as well they make great computers for older people that just want a Facebook machine and something to Webcam with the grandkids. They are honestly under praised as a PC. They are also good as a pfsense box (if it has 2 network ports) to make your own super beefy router. That isnt a big power drain like one made from an old PC
I think you should do a comparison video between all your mini pc's. Maybe a tier list, but of course it cant be a normal f-s rank tier list. It should be listed from "Total Garbage", "Definitely not milk", "Not your mom", "Ehh Kinda Chilly", "That's Totally My Retro", "Meh Modern AAA Hype", "Laura approved (best value/to performance. To show your girl some love.)"

Building a computer isn't hard. The hard bit, is sorting through all the bs gamer terms and info- to pick parts that work best together.
If you're in the US and have a microcenter near you then you can ask them to build it for you.
I own to gaming pcs one with a 2090 ti Nvidia and the other with a 3090ti Nvidia graphics card, but I don't want to catch a virus and it ends up stealing my financial info.
If you can put together Legos, you can build a pc.

Thanks dude! I’ve made my decision.
Can you tell me what emulation software did you use will it work well with Batacara and Emulationstation?
I personally use Retrobat
Is anyone else going broke buying everything that T.Dweeb reviews? DWEEEEEEB!
Can this run Elden Ring or at least everything on one of those 12TB gaming drives? I don't need 1080p \ 4K perfection or anything and I tend to mostly play single player stuff.

@TechDweeb yes I just watched the video pretty cool games. The only game I can't seem to find is time splitters by playstation.
C-type cord, does it mean one can charge it?
Can't charge (no battery), but it can be powered by USBC.

Same I was looking for $400 32 gb 😅
How well does it run games like GW2 and World of Warcraft?
Not sure, I didn't test those, but I think they would run great because they're not as demanding as some of the other games I tested.
What is the ser 7 's 780m igpu maximum TGP??
I can't find this anywhere 😅 and the previous model is at about $400 us 😢
What you should know is that this model has problems with wireless lan. You can also be lucky - otherwise a cable connection is recommended.
Price aside, what is the best and most powerful mini pc for emulating the higher end stuff like ps3 and xbox360?
I would go for something like the higher end model of this. The SER7.
How about Sega Saturn emulation? Though an old system, but it's always hard to emulate.
Its easier than Switch or PS3 emulation so it runs fine
would something like this with lets say one of those external GPU adapters work?? I know Razer has one of those GPU adapters.
900p is probably where I would target. I don't even mind 720p at the right distance and monitor (stream from my 5800x3d and rx 6800 while using my old 1660 ti for nvenc ironically to my steamdeck lol)
could i possibly run fl studio for music production on this?
Definitely! It has all the horsepower you need for that sorta stuff.

I was hoping to be able to comfortably run mario kart 8 deluxe at x2 resolution, using yuzu or ryujinx, but this appears to require some tweaking of settings, or possibly even higher TDP (if I understand correctly you'd have to get a higher wattage PSU first). Have you done any testing with that title?
hey TD, got an hdmi cord i can borrow?
I wish I did but I'm almost out 😢
If it didn't have the special power connector it'd be perfect. Standard barrel connectors should have been on this thing.
can you add a egpu with a 3060 ti to it?
Wich monitor you using for this review?
Hey TechDweeb! Really love your content. This is my first question I have ever asked you. I more or less have a shell of an original Daytona Twin Cab. I am adding racing wheels and going to link up two PCs to run simultaneous racing. I was told the minimum specs would be a 6 or 7th gen i5 with a 1050ti 4gb video card with 8gb of ram and an SSD. So do you think this little mini PC would be every bit as powerful as the PC I just described to do this same task. Would be great to do all of this with a couple of these SER6 units. Just wanted your take. I would be plugging in Force Feedback Thrustmaster T248x and p racing wheels with pedals and wanted to output them to 27" 100hz 1080p monitors. It would emulate up to techno parrot and Sega Model 2 and 3 I believe along with MAME. Not pushing this for iracing or current AAA racing titles like horizon or anything like that though wondered what the limits would be for exclusively racing titles. Thanks in advance and keep up all the great vids!
This wouldn't be as powerful as a 1050 ti. The performance might be similar, but I don't want to make guarantees. It should be fine for your technoparrot and MAME stuff though.
@@TechDweeb Thanks for the advice!
That cartoon character voice matches the cartoon Hamburgler outfit.🤫😜
hi,will this pc run better with chimera os?
I just order one seam to be a Beast for the Beast. Thank you 🎉
Haha. A BEAST for the BEAST. Love that!
@@TechDweeb I CHOOSE THE VERSION 7 WITH Ryzen 7 7840HS(up to 5.1GHz) look badass
I share your video on my site , keep the great work
Need to shrink my 96TB , my Bay will be bigger then the Pc hummmmm
Would you recommend this mini PC to run your 4tb mini RB5 Drive? I want to be able to run PS3, GameCube and Xbox games. Thank you.
@@Cryptoandkush999yes one if the Best min pc. Lets goooo 🎉
My mom's boyfriends stole her and some of my shoes. Life's not fair. And he don't even like me 😂
This piece of tech is really tempting... By the way, is Shadow of the Colossus that tricky to run? I am enjoying it on my RP2S without problems 😊
It's easy to run, except when you get to the hard areas of the game (like the forest I showed).
@@TechDweeb I got good fps range even underwater (6th or 7th colossus): it's running in a very satisfying way considering the T610 :)
We need him to work with the guy who made the intel nucdeck handheld to make a proper handheld using the mini pc
@4:55 who are you calling a USB A-Hole?
Can this play PS2 games at max settings?
Ray tracing??
Great video BTW but I'd like to let you know you made a little error on the back connectors. You said 2 USB-C holes but they are USB4.
USB4 open a lot of nice things like eGPU with an adaptor and fast external storage options
Overheard someone on the street:
"I hate that USB! So many A-HOLES! The other one's okay, it's a C-HOLE" 😆
Your link goes to the ser5.
I like to use My minipc when my main machine is running hours long renders. I browse and play little games on it till the big bertha is done her render.
They also make GREAT kids first computers put some old games on it and stuff for homework a little monitor kb and mouse and bam you got yourself a nerd goin!
as well they make great computers for older people that just want a Facebook machine and something to Webcam with the grandkids.
They are honestly under praised as a PC.
They are also good as a pfsense box (if it has 2 network ports) to make your own super beefy router. That isnt a big power drain like one made from an old PC
I think you should do a comparison video between all your mini pc's. Maybe a tier list, but of course it cant be a normal f-s rank tier list. It should be listed from "Total Garbage", "Definitely not milk", "Not your mom", "Ehh Kinda Chilly", "That's Totally My Retro", "Meh Modern AAA Hype", "Laura approved (best value/to performance. To show your girl some love.)"
if a sandwich with three pieces of bread is a triple decker sandwich does that make a regular two slice sandwich a double decker?!😏
-Dweebs for Truth in Advertising
You'll have to take it up with my legal team
I fucking love my beelink.... But i think its time to upgrade or setup a GPU rig
Note to self: This is the one to get for the price, can run Past PS3 and 360 + Decent AAA.
Amazing price for the tech.
😄👍
