Those Geekbench CPU scores seem really low. My best score for Windows 11 on GB 6.2.2 are Single Core: 1197 and Multi-Core:2928, and Compute (OpenCL): 2693. But that's for a Beelink Mini S12, which has the lower specced N95 processor with 16EU UHD graphics instead of 24EU in the N100. Those scores are after I did a bit of tweaking in the bios to supposedly raise the power limit (no idea if it actually did anything, as I don't have any way to measure the voltage draw), and I was testing it with a 16GB stick of Timetec dual rank RAM, which did give it a minor speed bump, but not significantly so. Geekbench scores were about 6% higher on Linux Mint LMDE6, but I don't know that you can infer much from that, although the Mint was running off of an SSD as opposed to the NVME, so I assume there was some penalty there, but maybe not as the included NVME is, um, generic. Anyway,I'd see if you can't eke a bit more performance out of that mini, as it should definitely have some more to give. Oh, and I've been running it for months as a Plex server (again on Linux Mint with Plex Pass, so it is using the Quick Sync for decoding and encoding) and it runs like a champ. It can easily transcode three 4K films simultaneously down to 1080P without breaking a sweat.
At what internal resolution are you running the games? They look very sharp to me so you might have set the resolution too high? PCSX2 runs well on 2nd gen intel core cpus and even older, these e cores are on the level of 6th gen intel core CPU's afaik.
I've seen a video from ETA Prime with this chip, and he was able to run PS2 at 2x. Seems weird how bad it ran here, guess it might be related with the single channel RAM, not sure...
@@JoeysRetroHandheldsOh, right! I wonder if this could be unlock in the bios or something... It would make it a good emulation box up to GC, PS2 and Wii. If it's permanently caped at 6W, it's not worth it in my personal opinion.
Excellent review, thank you very much.
Man I kind of want one of these now. I love your 'SUS' monitor, top quality content my friend!! Stubbs

i cant get 3.4 ghz only around 2.6.. how cani fix it?

A lot to expect for a $150 pc.
Can you make this device with passive, no fan cooling?
Does it have auto power on after power outage
¿I can edit videos with this mini PC?

He also shows over 20 watts in that video and this is capped to 6w.
