That’s not tekken 6
I just got this um780xtx but can’t get it to boot in to batocera. I have installed batocera on an external ssd. That works fine on another machine. Secure boot is off but still it won’t boot. Any ideas???
Do you recommend installing batocera on the internal nvme or do you’ll recommend retrobat within windows.
I picked up one of these last week and very impressed with it's performance.. I have thought about giving the Oculink a go and see how it works..
Imagine in 2024 !!
VIDEO TITLE: BEST MINI PC FOR GAMING
THE VIDEO : PLAY 90's and 2000's game with medium graphic
Hi great video dude. Could you point me in the direction of a mini pc for just snes/megadrive/n64/ps1/sega satarn? Am new to the mini pc scene
Does it handle true 4k video play back
Hi thank you for making this video and all your others its very helpful. One question, is the item in the link provided come preloaded plug and play? I cant see in the description that it is loaded with games same as this video…?
Hi when running emulation games on it such as the pcsx2 have you had any issue where games woukd randomly temporarily freeze up for a few moments? Mainly during loadingscreens, cutescenes or ingame mechanic trigers?
Is it hard to install emulator? What frontend is used?
Thanks to your vid I bought the um780xtx 🙂 I am curious about o e thing I'm confused if I should set it to balanced or performance mode for emulations . Would ps3/switch emulation run fine on balance?
And I have a 4 port USB A hub for my wireless mouse and keyboard, whatever else I need and a 1 TB(931 GB) WD Passport HDD I've had for 14 years, I plug in 2 Evo 860 SSDs into the back and have a 2 TB nVMe plugged into a C port via an enclosure along with a USB SATA cable for charging my phone, PS5 controller or whatever despite I have a touch sensor light with 4 USB A ports. Mine hasn't even shipped yet, close to it but according to Scamazon, I won't get it until the 22-25. I have 3 extra 2 TB WD Black nVMes, one SN850 and 2 SN850X. So I'm good as far as space for games go. And lastly, a 500(465) GB Samsung Evo 970 Plus that was my first nVMe I got maybe 5 years ago that's literally just laying in a drawer
I ended up just saying fuck it and instead of getting the 512/32 GB package? I got the 1 TB/64 GB package. Only $82 more than the 512/32 GB and even though the only thing I do is game and surf the web? You never know. And aside from using more power? An eGPU probably uses additional RAM as well. And honestly, doubling 2 of the most important resources in your PC for less than $100? Why not. This way I''ll have 64 GB DDR5 in my mini PC and 32 GB DDR4 in my gaming PC that's been out of service due to overheating for a few years. If I can ever get or decide to pay someone to install one of my liquid coolers for me? Cool but now, I'm good either way
Tekken 8 ran pretty well on the Beelink Ser 6. I torrented, played and beat it maybe a month ago? And that's the 680M . The lack of ports is what is turning me away from the Ser 7. Plus the 2 USB A ports in the back are USB 2 just like on the Ser 6. So 4 USB 3, possibly 3.2 ports? I'm getting this. Because right now, it's $3.31 less than the Ser 7. Yeah, I'll have to wait 6-9 days instead of less than 1 for the Ser 7 but this is just until I can get the PC I Built what, 3 or 4 years ago that is AM4 with a Ryzen 5 5600X and a 3060Ti I haven't even gotten to use yet since my liquid cooler died on me twice and I can't get any of the 2 or 3 I've bought to mount, up and running again
Kinda thinking of just saying fuck it, dropping a few hundred and getting an eGPU because I wanted to get a 4070 Ti Super since that's the best you can get to pair with a 5600X but since I am going the way of the 7840hs that's 30% better than the 5600X? Might as well spend some extra on a eGPU. True, it'll be a pain in the ass and in the way probably but I should have just enough room for it to sit under my desk on top of my PC case and if not? I'll just put the eGPU where the PC is right now and that will be maybe half a foot shorter than the PC case from my estimate
And PCSX3? Is old, at least in terms of computing. 13 years old next week. So, PCSX3 will be a teenager on May 23rd lol. But just like the PS3 was a scam and a pain in the ass to code and develop for? So too, is the emulator. At least as far as being a pain in the ass goes
I’m looking at a $1,100 computer that plays virtually every game created by man!
So expensive I want but to only run emulators that's the price of a low tier gaming laptop w a 3050gpu
how is anyone supposed to see the ports when you only face it side on and keep jiggling it around? What a useless video
Do emulators support multiplayer? Ive never used an emulator or pc in general for gaming so can someone fill me in?
Hi, will it run xplane 12?
Why not buy instead a Laptop with a Intel I5/I9 ++RTX 4060 for 800 Bucks?
What is the advantage of a mini pc?
Cool a retro gaming reviewer that's not a fuddy duddy "dad" type. Subscribed. So does this have 2 m.2 slots that are available? One for the oculink and one for your SSD?'
Are the games not included
does this mini PC come with retro games installed ? if not, How do I go about getting help on installing emulators and roms on this mini PC ?
Does it come with controller?
Just got one of these last week and currently playing Lies of P on medium settings at 30 fps no problem. It's pretty incredible for the size and price. Getting the onexgpu soon to pair with it.
Great review. Glad to hear the comparison with the Beelink SER 7.
Have you tested Street Fighter 6 or Tekken 8 on any of these mini pcs? If so, do they get 60fps?
So besides hardware stuff like keyboard, monitor, mouse, what else would I need to run this? I am coming from console and have never had a pc but I want to get into emulation and play a few steam games myself
Unless something better comes around before I upgrade, I think this will be my next device. Currently on a SER5 MAX 🙂 Can emulate GameCube at 3x resolution quite nicely, sometimes 4x. I don't play many AAA games on Steam but they do struggle to hit 1080p in a lot of cases lol! My monitor is a 1080p 60hz though, waiting to upgrade that too, I need something really bright and vivid since my eyes kinda suck. So when I upgrade that, I'll be pretty picky lol.
Why should s/one choose 780xtx instead of HX80g for gaming ? (other than the size). Prices in amazon Germany are almost identical.
do you think this computer can emulate switch games?
$800????!!! F&@k off
