Can’t have a JayzTwoCents video without bloopers
are they really bloopers if they made it into the final cut?
What bloopers? That's just Jay in his natural habitat! 😄👍

I feel like a PC like this would be super useful for someone building out a camper van or a tiny home.
but then again, just go for a laptop
@@L3nny666 caravan would have a mounted tv, so permanent fixture isnt a problem, granted an itx pc would also fit the bill
Or the bunker...
Agree... but my prefer use-case would be clustering.
@@L3nny666 Laptop with these specs would be 3 times the price.
It is essentially a laptop-in-a-box, minus the display and input devices. Neat.
essentially, but dare I say more easily upgradeable and with better cooling.

Yeah, but 1/3 the price for equivalent hardware.
Exactly, for $900.
@@pau1phi11ips it's that dramatic?
It's honestly really impressive what a modern APU can do.
Fr, u can play modern games and u literally don't have room to bitch now lol unless ur really picky.
I use APU's to build family members typical computers.
@sub1ime81 can't wait for rdna igpu with the huge cache and ddr5 for hellofa lot more bandwidth..should be able to run same games at high and ultra vs medium etc. In a few years apus will really be up to the gaming challenge.
@sub1ime81 its unfortunate that ddr5 didn't have some sort of dual channel per dimm so we could have 4 channel per 2 ddr5 sticks. I imagine the main reason they didn't do that is to maintain the income from the HEDT side with 4 channel ram. A powerful APU with quad channel ddr5 7200mhz or something would actually keep up with say a gtx 1660 or something assuming they can jam enough gpu cores on the apu. I am excited about the prospect of decent gaming in a 50 watt package for a laptop that actually games for several hours. My 4 core laptop with m620 quadro burns the battery in like 30-40 mins when gaming. Just annoying.
@sub1ime81 let not forget the 15qatt package thats x86 for handhelds.. having 1080 or 1440p gaming with high settings at 60hz is a dream of mine. I may actually drop some $$$ on a product like that.
For a workstation to integrate into an RV or similar this is brilliant, usually I would say just buy a console but the power that thing would use and having full PC capability especially for a photographer or someone on the road is a serious consideration.
Just a heads up, thunderbolt is not the only way to have an EGPU. There are m.2 pcie -> EGPU adapters. Then, if you buy an adapter for the m.2ss to Sata drive (so you don't have to buy a new drive, but would likely loose some ssd performance)
Would love to see a M.2 pcie external GPU on this (for people who buy this + want to play higher res/better fps down the road).
I agree
People who looks for a budget gaming pc will love this
I'm pretty sure M.2 eGPU adapters also need a PSU to power the GPU. It's doable, but it's not pretty, especially if you only have a non-modular PSU on hand. I used to use a similar solution for my Thinkpad X230, but usng an ExpressCard adapter rather than a M.2 one.
@@TheFlibidy there are also adapters for old Xbox 360 psus
@Sciurus Niger the m.2-> pcie adapter is about 50-70 usd + a power supply. So yeah about $100, but much cheaper than the pre-made ones that cost over 250
I'm looking forward to the next generation of this PC, with DDR5 and an APU with a stronger iGPU.

After watching Linus for so long it's nice to see someone who can actually stay on the course and a racing game, and even with Austin Evans claiming to be good at racing games he keeps bouncing off the walls. So Bravo to you for staying on course.
They should face off with ijustine. She'd wipe the floor with them. That would be fun to watch.
I was finally able to convince UA-cam I never wanted to see "Linus" ever again after blocking his channel and marking all his videos "do not recommend". Haven't seen any of his content for months. God, he was annoying.
"You werent supposed to see this" *moves it from right side of camera to left side*

So boss, we need to upgrade the network as it's too slow.... for work obviously! 😁🙄
Those were the days!
Such an impressive little machine. Those Ryzen APU's really don't fuck around.
Wish they were cheaper. I have a miniforums u700 with the 3300u cpu i paid about 550 which is to fing(I needed the form factor for something so had to get one) much. Seriously the newer ones with the 4750 for example is near 8 or 900 I can buy a laptop with the same specs and a screen for less. Also the ryzen chips are perfect for these type of applications yet theres only a few and most are just coming out with older gen chips seriously give me a new cpu AT a price that beats a laptop( yes yes i know their small companies but asus makes a model thats also on the high end price wise for still old hardware also come on other companies make these damn it) with the same specs. Personally i thinkintel is up to their old shady shit with oems look at some of the amd laptops that should have been good but they all had odd choices even same model the intel was betetr then the amd due to poor deisgn choices on the amd systems like horrible airflow which some reviewers fixed with a dremel that still looked fine after.
👍🏻 continue with the reviews video like this and also troubleshooting ones. Your video during the 30 days of Christmas debugging a riser cable was a life saver. I had similar issues that were intermittent, could not find the cause. Your video allowed me to identify my issue and it has since been resolved! Thanks!
Agreed, this is how I learn about these niche tech products. Thanks Jay.
I had a riser cable go bad on me a little while ago, it is soo annoying!
This is how you upgrade moms house. Attach it to the TV and she won't need a laptop or IPad. Also you can play games with the kids on Thanksgiving.
I can see this as a workstation for people opening their first business. The "bigger" version with 32GB for $830 is not a bad deal. If you're not a gamer and you're not into upgrading your PC on a regular basis, this seems to be a perfect fit.
Back in the day, we used "rugged" mini-PCs of this form factor as field servers. We deployed them in barns to act as a collection point for our data-gathering and stream the data back to the lab. We even hid one in a closet to run a "check-in/check-out" staff tracking system using RFID antennas. It's the power of a desktop PC with the footprint of half a tissue box.
This system would be a good test case for AMD FidelityFX when it is released.
In case you're talking about FSR improving 1080p gaming: It will bring poor improvements in framerates at a significant loss of visual quality on that resolution, I'm afraid.
kudos go to ryzen for making this "hot fix" for the gpu crisis
@Matthew Shields Why? Adding integrated GPUs = More die space, which means fewer CPUs. If you have a graphics card, there is almost no reason at all to have an iGPU. Only this past year has there been a good reason to have iGPUs at the high end of CPUs.
Additionally, their other/older CPUs would have cost more. I can't see a reason why we 'need' an iGPU, other than when traditional GPUs are otherwise unavailable.
@@faranocks there's all sorts of situations where you don't want a big ol' dedicated GPU.
Market's not about "need", right, it's about "what will people buy", which a lot of times is convenience or efficiency. GPUs aren't efficient or even convenient for a lot of use cases.
@Matthew Shields yeah would've been nice if graphics cores were in the same gen as CPU cores from the start, but we're finally getting there soon :D
@@Kknewkles amd has almost always had lower end CPUs with igpus, starting with the ryzen 2200g, and 2400g.
@@joaovmlsilva3509 I'm sorry I don't get your point. Within NA/EU, buying 2nd hand was always a cheaper option, with $300 you could game, and with $500 you could game competently(good cpu, gpu, ram, and ssd). I understand other markets (like africa, india, south america) exist, but as stated earlier, AMD's 2200g and 2400g were quite good as an alternative to a dedicated GPU.
This would be perfect for media PC use, emulator games and wife's occasional photo editing 👍

Looks like a good candidate for an overpowered pfSense router since it has dual nics :)
I wish it had a third one for isp fail over
I didn't check, but I bet they are both realteks, so no.
As an additional note, Parsec works really well as an alternative to Steams in home streaming and works with a raspberry pi as the client side device (and over the internet too but that brings in lag). Would actually make quite an interesting video.
Is the video quality good? Last time I tried it, the video compresstion was high even though I increased the settings. (Tried it around late last summer)
@@PatrikKron I've never had too much issue but I do run it at 1080p and let my TV handle the upscale to 4k, also my network is fully wired between both ends, I did struggle when running over WiFi
Parsec works like a charm. I use parsec on my virtual machine at home and use my Linux laptop to play games. Works perfectly 1080p 60fps and I think it's more efficient than steam

I would use this in my van. Currently have an Alienware laptop to watch movies and work at building games in Unity.

I have a Macbook Pro that's my daily driver for work stuffs, and I recently bought an M1 Mini myself. It's stupid fast - Premiere and Davinci Resolve both have native M1 versions, and there's a lot of Big Name games - Shadow of the Tomb Raider for example - that run like butter on it. It's also dead silent and barely warm to the touch under heavy loads. I know that everyone poops on Mac, but I'm super curious how you'd react to it. Bonus - it's something you can actually buy!

That immediate 'update' for steam is usually Steam checking for what may have just gone on sale, or information on games that you're following news of.

that is an awesome mini pc, I would definitely be interested in something like this since most of the games I play now are several years old already lol
I mainly play Transport Tycoon (was a DOS game!) and Unreal Tournament (runs on anything) I think my toaster would have enough CPU to run those.
I second that!! 👍👍
This can be really interesting for my children. A small PC to to their homeworks and some games. It doesn't need to be too big and too pricey. I'd rathjer buy this than a laptop for the same purpose. Easier to upgrade, more sturdy and cheaper imho. I didn't know the brand. I'll take a look! Thanks for the review!
Great to start off with yes. Or for older folks not wanting to feel left out from what the grand kids like.
Be better of building a small pc w/ an APU for a better upgrade path if they really wanna game.
@@SurviveWasTaken I totally agree with you. But it is more like a casual gaming right now and at their age, it will be easier for me at the moment.

But it will be a good starter for now!
@@Ahaus314 in that case you’re totally right 💯

I'd love this for when I'm hospitalized. It's small enough to travel with, and strong enough to play games.
For the kind of money they're pricing this at, I'd sooner but a Chromecast to stream Netflix from and get an Xbox Series S to play on a TV. I'd do that all for under half the price of that computer and have no latency issues with gaming.
You're not wrong. On the other side you wouldn't have a PC.
My bigger problem lies in buying an 8C/16T APU. It has the better GPU, but it's not that different. If you can't use the 8 cores from the APU you paid too much. Still these little machines are awesome and they're enough for a lot of gaming.
I just hope future APUs with RDNA2 can use the L3 Cache as Infinity Cache. I'm curious how much performance will result out of it.
@JayTwocents Just one thing Tiger Lake as an APU competitor is not shit. It's just Quad-Core but games run faster, especially if you give it more power. I would still prefer an AMD APU with RDNA2, even just for the drivers.
@@Deinorius that's true, but I think I'd sooner by a Chromecast and go for a better prebuilt PC in this nuts environment, spend a similar amount and have a dedicated PC.
Don't get me wrong I'm sure there's a use case for it where it ticks someone's boxes all day. I feel like for most people it bridges a gap with too many compromises for the price.
I'd definitely be interested in something relatively similar that I could carry around that didn't cost a crazy amount. I wouldn't need it to be able to video edit and compress, etc. so wouldn't need to leverage all that CPU power
for just simple media playback like netflix and youtube this thing is honestly overkill, if you need a full fledge pc in a small space and money is not a problem its definitely cool i just wish it had thunderbolt

We need more small builds for cleaner space looks
I only just realised that the APUs will support AMDs FSR, which should mean even better game performance in about half a month.
More people need to see this. Small PCs like this while being mobile will be really nice.

But using it when describing to what such a PC could connect to, that word is utterly wrong.

I actually considered giving such a thing to old people. Having the VESA mount makes it perfect for one-monitor-setups.

And you don't need a big box suffocating beneath the table.

Gundam 3080 😂
remember when racing games had damage models? that was fun.
It's been a long time since I bought a racing game. I remember that it had at least three levels of realism, something like Arcade, Normal and Realistic or something like that. Arcade was about what we saw in this video. You could crash into any thing at any speed and the worst that happened was that you cam to a stop, though I think it still showed some degree of cosmetic damage. In Normal mode the car got damaged but would be dropped back on the track if you got things really wrong and could limp to the goal no matter what you did to it. Enter Realistic where you couldn't get away with anything. Suddenly listening to your codriver was important. Figuring out how to setup the suspension could be the difference between winning the stage and not completing it. A bad landing could rip your wheel off, and doing a 180 ending up with the wheels in the air meant you wouldn't finish the stage.
Any semi-serious racing game lets you enable full or partial damage. Only exception i can think of right now is Forza horizon 4, but even that hot mess has a damage option that slows down your car and makes it hard to steer
@@K3Techs Even FH4 has an option to enable simulation damage which will fully stop your car if enough damage is taken

🤣🤣🤣
I love this kind of mini PC more than the bulky standard mainstream pc, hope to see more graphic power on this kind of PC in the future
So, I posted this video over on the Mini PC Reddit, with a comment that there were some things that Jay missed / skipped over.
One of the bigger things is that he hasn't really kept up with Mini PC's in the last few years, it would seem. There are a lot of machines that are not under-powered. There are a lot of them based on Intel 9th, 10th and 11th generation processors, as well as Zen+, Zen 2, and Zen 3. The tricky part is to keep track of these devices you have to known both the mobile and desktop APU's, and how they differ (besides the iGPU) from the standard desktop CPUs.
Here's a list of 8 items Jay should have mentioned, or was a bit off on in this video:
1. The Ryzen 4800U is a mobile APU.
2. The TDP for the 4800U APU is 25W, a fraction of what your typical gaming desktop draws.
3. The constraint on the GPU is mostly due to the L3 cache being limited to 8mb.
4. The desktop versions (like the 4650G and 4750G) have a higher TDP (65W), and higher clocks on both the CPU and GPU. However, they are still limited by the 8mb of L3 cache.
5. The Zen 3 desktop APU's that were just announced will still be on the Vega graphics cores.
6. The Zen 3 APU's will perform a bit better because the L3 cache has been increased to 16mb, and the IPC and efficiency gains in the CPU.
7. AMD hasn't commented on whether they will refresh the Zen 3 APU's with the 3D cache stacking technology they are implementing. (At least that I have seen.)
8. (If I heard this correctly...this may still be a rumor.) AMD has said that RDNA graphics will be introduced in the Zen 4 lineup of APU's.
On this last item... I'm pretty certain they have said this, it seems AMD were caught a bit off guard by Intel's Iris Xe graphics, which (in some cases) are a definite improvment over the UHD. (Although, oddly, it seems some of the UHD graphics have been re-branded as Iris Xe, so you have to look carefully.)
What do you mean we weren’t supposed to see the Gundam edition router yet?
Me: That's small!
Me 2 minutes later: Wait, that was the box. Well sh-
Hahaha yeah no. The scary thing is if you muck with the tdp limits, the little thing is capable of drawing 65w. So this really isn't far off from a 3700x.
I mean, it's not really impressive if you compare it to a gaming laptop...
"it's faster than you think"
That is what she said,,
Yes Turin.
It's small and fast…
That's what she said too...
It's pretty neat as a kind of secondary laid back relaxing entertainment system, not for any demanding games, but there are many more casual or old ones for some "retro" gaming that may perform exceptional.
ETA also reviewed this one and he was pretty impressed. It worked great for most emulation as well if you're into emulation.
"With M.2 the hotter it gets the slower it gets."
M.2 supposedly works best when "warm" at 50C but typically throttles when it gets up to like 60-70C, though I have seen no data to support this. What I do know from first hand experience is that if you get past 80% capacity you will often see the temps go up to the throttle level pretty quickly, especially under write-heavy loads. Would be an interesting test to see.
I was looking at these for my mom since she only does online stuff and office docs and what not. Think it would be more than perfect you her
The 4800u is faster than some of the high end desktop chips from the past year and a bit lol
I'm no gamer but my eyes got opened on a PC like this for my wife's work area. Very basic video streaming, spreadsheet etc and we all love it. Shortly after buying her that one I picked up a Minisforum HX90 w/32 gigs of ram for myself and absolutely love it. That thought me you don't need the big brands, that's just wasting $ on advertising and misc. I later added 8 tb of SSD hd and am now good to go for years. Again, not being a gamer, I will only buy these smaller units from now on.
All the use cases as above + installing MCC and playing through the campaign with buddies over a weekend
"Mainframe, not heard that in a while have you"
*Chuckling as IPLing a Mainframe system whilst watching the video*
I make a bet most people watching Jay's video don't know what IPL means. ;) (Man it's been decades since I've worked with a PDP system...)
I will be doing our IPL this weekend

'TINY BUT POWERFUL' xD
This would work in most office environments.
True, but then again, but if it's just office work, then so would Intel's integrated graphics. :)
They're getting a lot better. Can't wait for an awesome micro PC
I would love to have one for our camping trailer... for the rainy days of course. Just keep a few movies/tv series and a couple of games stored on drive.
Crashes into a bale of hay "geez that's a big tyre" 🤣
This is pretty cool. Throwing in some stuff like this that is actually available will probably help. 😉
When are u finishing the v8 build?
Never
Media centre with some retro emulation as well as steam in-home streaming. It would also be handy to carry around on holiday for those places that have a TV as it would keep the kids (and myself!) entertained for hours.
The next gen of these will actually be really good. The benchmarks from the new ryzen 5000 apu's are actually really good for gaming at 1080p.
The new 5000 series apu's are already available in some prebuilts from like walmart, bestbuy etc. Some creators have already covered them and the systems are around $500.
