    I'm amazed at the capabilities of this box of tricks! It's not even supposed to be able to emulate the PS3 as most mini PCs can't do it! With regards to there being only one USB 3: there's a workaround and that's to use an on-the-go cable for the USB 2, then plug the red power cable into an extension cable to reach the mains powered USB or battery power bank. Insert the female USB 2 into the male of a 3 way mini adapter, only originally meant for low power devices where a WIFI dongle wouldn't normally work (my method makes anything useful). You can do more than just power gaming controllers, being a gaming keyboard and gaming mouse with lights, plus a smartphone for data transfer. However, the phone won't charge so make sure there's sufficient power in the phone. This method protects your machine from overheating as it can't provide power to the phone, prolonging the life without overheat. Avoid using a smartphone with a powered USB 3 hub as it will blow! A portable mechanical drive or DVD won't cause any distress, regardless of power being provided directly by the PC. Limit each USB to 4 outputs, protecting the PC with external power.

I saw your awesome review of the AceMagician PC a few weeks ago and the specs are great. Will that be a good pick or what would you recommend? Do I really need a 1 TB PC with 2.5 SSD to play retro games? Thank you.

    Great video. You tested the 16 GB version as compared to the 32 GB version, correct? If so, for an extra 40 bucks the 32 GB version might be worth it. It is incredible the amount of games (and not just retro games either) this thing can run. Like I have said before, if we all start investing in these mini PCs, maybe just maybe GPU manufactures may notice the trend and start to reduce the cost of the recent GPUs that cost a fortune.

    I think I'd get the barebones Minisforum model because you can pick your own RAM and storage and it just uses a regular barrel jack for power instead of that crappy, flimsy proprietary magnetic nonsense Beelink uses. Trust me, it will break and you will pay a fortune to replace it! Also, the Minisforum will be cheaper once their brief $80 off promotion is over. Anyone who is watching this thinking they'd better save their money, will be better off planning to get the Minisforum barebones model. You can probably get storage and RAM cheaper today than they would have spent 3 months ago when they actually built the damn thing. IDK why anyone sells anything other than barebones. It economically makes no sense when you consider lead times and rapid price drops over time.
