  • In this video we take look at at the all new ASRock NUC BOX 155H Mini AI PC. Powered by the new Intel Core Ultra 7 155H and supporting up to 96GB of ram this little PC has potential for sure. We do an unboxing, go over the specs run some benchmarks and test out some gaming on this mini travle PC. With a TDP up to 60 watts can this PC compete with RYZEN? Lets find out.

      Agreed. The port configuration is not the best layout.
      The average user won't use 1, let alone 2 Ethernet ports on this mini PC. Not sure what the purpose of that is. They would have been better off having at least 1 USB-C on the back.

      True but ETA Prime is a gaming and emulation focused channel so from that perspective there’s really no point buying this product. Of course ETA will never do comparisons until long after his “deal” ends with whoever provided the product for free, but that’s the same as a gazillion other UA-camrs. He just stands out more because his videos are so formulaic these days.

      quite frankly, from what I've read, if you're interested more in gaming and editing then you should stick to amd pc's. Intel is more for the business minded. Not saying they can't play any games but for the most part amd runs them better...at least for now, intel has been playing "catch-up" for years.

    I noticed from the marketing language that this is being sold as an "AI PC". We are really getting to the point now where at least *some sort* of AI performance benchmark is going to be needed. Personally, I would like to see something with T/s data (both prompt processing and streaming) for some standardized prompt using 7B, 34B, and 70B LLM models at 4- and 8-bit quants (LM Studio would be sufficient for that, given how easy it is to install and switch models on Windows machines) as well as some data on I/s for a Stable Diffusion model. I'd like to ask for more than that, but I think those tests would be enough to get the point across.
