The Five BEST Mini PCs of 2024 – Gaming, Productivity, Servers, Budget, Etc.

🛒 https://epicpants.com 🎵 https://zweihander.com 💻 https://teksyndicate.com 🎮 Gaming Channel: https://youtube.com/@easymode Let's talk about the best Mini PCs of the year. I looked at at least 17 (closer to 20 if you count the smaller ones I showcased in roundup videos). So, I've broken the list down into a few categories. Without further ado... 00:50 🔹 Fastest Mini PC of the Year 🖥️ Geekom GT1 Mega Intel Core Ultra 📹 Review Video: https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fV4gOTh4MQ 💰 We have a special coupon code for 6% savings: 🌐 US Official Store【Code: TekSyGT1Mega】: http://shrsl.com/4r2k6 🇺🇸 US Amazon (Ultra 9 185H)【Code: TekSGT1Mega】: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DG7WDW75?maas=maas_adg_502EC39C6C56B208B6A88E6B00F70AED_afap_abs&ref_=aa_maas&tag=tekksynd20-20 🇺🇸 US Amazon (Ultra 7 155H)【Code: TekSGT1Mega】: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DG8D4ZKH?maas=maas_adg_D5B3062E9BCC352D79A0F3DA9659F9D5_afap_abs&ref_=aa_maas&tag=tekksynd20-20 🇬🇧 UK Official Store【Code: TekSyGT1Mega】: https://www.geekom.co.uk/geekom-gt1-mega-mini-pc 🇬🇧 UK Amazon (Ultra 9 185H)【Code: TekSyGT1Mega】: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DG8B5B45?maas=maas_adg_463E2C5C62F2AFEC4A8338767D01FB0C_afap_abs&ref_=aa_maas&tag=tekksynd20-20 ------------------------ 03:55 🎮 Best Mini PC for Gaming - 3 PCs in this race The Geekom A7 and the Reaton Alloy 9 are almost identical in speed, settings, specs, and design. The Alloy 9 is 1-2 fps faster in some games while the Geekom A7 won in a couple of the synthetic benchmarks. I'd probably grab whichever deal looks the best.

I was hesitant to look at a smart TV because I normally focus on gaming monitors and such, but I realized something. A smart TV is really just a TV with a little arm computer on the inside... so that's something we can work with. If you want to use the big corporate rental services like Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, Prime Video, Hulu, HBO Max, Apple TV+, Peacock, Paramount+, Sling TV, Discovery+, ESPN+, Starz, Showtime, Vudu, Tubi, Pluto TV, Crackle, CBS All Access, FuboTV, Plex, Shudder, CuriosityStream, and Funimation... then just install the app. Netflix, YT, and many others are already installed. Now, for many of us... we want more power. Well, you can really take control of android, install emulators, etc. there's 32 GB of internal memory, and that's plenty for SNES, Genesis/MegaDrive, NES, PC Engine/TurboGrafx, games. Check out the video for details. Specs: 🖥️ Model: KTC A32Q8 Smart Monitor 📏 Size: 31.5 inches 📺 Resolution: 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) 💻 Panel Type: VA 🔄 Refresh Rate: 60Hz 🌐 Technology: Google TV, Netflix licensed, HDR10, Dolby Vision 🔊 Audio: Dolby Audio (2×5W speakers) 🎛️ Smart Features:…

HUGE ANNOUNCEMENTS: New Album & I’m Making a Game

GET IT HERE: 🎵 https://zweihander.com Zweihänder merch: https://epicpants.com 🎮 Gaming Channel: https://youtube.com/@easymode Solar Crisis (our gamejam game): https://jalder.itch.io/solar-crisis I'm making a game (the title is secret for just a couple more weeks, but it's gooood). It's a click adventure set during the satanic panic of the 1990s... so even if you weren't alive, it'll give you a glimpse into a weird time where moral panic was totally out of control. Join the email list for news on the game: https://midnightdojo.com Info on the new album: The first eight tracks were created in October 2024 and are really the core of the album. The rest are bonus tracks that all have different themes. I've explored metal with chiptunes and fm synth, but I haven't really explored goth metal or goth rock. So, that's what we have here. Let's talk about the instruments I used. On the last album, I used a lot of Roland midi like the SC-55 and the SC-88. These were very fancy modules that many DOS games utilized. This time I used DOS-style FM synth for most of the songs. This means ADLIB, OPL2, and OPL3. I love the buzzy sounds you get from those Yamaha chips. The drums and a few of the other instruments were SNES samples. Lastly, I did follow the rules on a few songs. Far From Home was made with the NES in mind and Rocket Mouse was made with the Sega MegaDrive/Genesis in mind. These songs may sound a bit too fancy…

Here we have the AIYIMA S500 bookshelf speakers, and I think the real story is about all the options you get. It's hard to find a set of bookshelf speakers at any price with optical, RCA, treble and bass knobs, and a sub-out. All that is cool... but how do they sound? I think they sound pretty good.

This is from the perspective of a desktop power-user. The interface feels like it was designed with tablets or mobile devices. So, let's make it function like the perfectly usable Windows 10 taskbar. We can also restore Windows 10 or even Windows 7-style system tray flyouts. So we can get rid of that stupid command center. The program I am using to achieve this is ExplorerPatcher.

Portable OLED? Let’s Play Some Emulators! INNOCN 15A1F 15.6″ OLED Monitor

I’m always on the lookout for a good display to pair with emulators and retro games, and this little OLED is interesting for that. It's OLED, so we know the colors are good, blacks are deep... that plus the gray to gray and this makes the old games feel a lot better when compared to an IPS or something. It'll also be good for watching movies on the go. However, there's a catch... At the time of making this video, it's $319. That might be a lot for a 15.6" screen. Let's see if it's worth the loot. I'll be putting it through its paces, testing the ghosting, and playing some games to figure out if it’s good enough to justify that price. Is it practical for travel? And how does it compare to other options in this price range? Check out the video or I'll grab your ears and jump off the balcony. Specs: 🖥️ 15.6" OLED display 📺 3840…

Is Ryzen 9 Worth it VS Ryzen 7? Let’s Test the GMKtec M7 and M7 Pro Mini PCs

I’ve run them through all the usual benchmarks like Cinebench, Geekbench, and Superposition, plus I’ve thrown in some demanding games like Cyberpunk 2077, Baldur’s Gate 3, and even Frostpunk 2. The idea is to find out if the Ryzen 9 actually gives a noticeable boost over the Ryzen 7, or if it’s more of a marginal improvement when it comes to real-world performance. Looking at these specs, the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H in the M7 Pro runs up to 4.90GHz, while the Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H in the standard M7 is slightly slower at 4.70GHz. Both have the same Radeon 680M integrated graphics, so the performance difference mostly comes down to the extra frequency or maybe the ram speed. They also share a lot of features: DDR5 memory (up to 32GB), 1TB NVMe SSD storage, USB 4 support, and Wi-Fi 6E. The only real…
