I'd be happier if their product page wasn't full of BS. Also, it seems that the built-in touchscreen is an OS dependent 2nd screen and not any type of built-in monitoring. Spending >$1000usd on this seems to be terrible value. Especially considering how well AMD processors do in this form factor.

Fallout 4 on the atomman is quite poetic.

Your settings screen showed Resizable BAR as disabled! ARC really likes Resizable BAR being on it is essential.

Seeing all these APUs that are actually decent makes me excited for the future of computing haha

My first PC had less storage than this thing has memory, and at 10 times the footprint. Technology is wild

I’m also really looking forward to Occulink testing!

Very cool, love the little onboard screen. It does seem that the port screen printing is upside down though?

Not bad for such a small system, and I like how the front has an LCD so you can display certain information on it.

I’d definitely like to see an occulink video. I’d be interested in the dock and power supply combo

Great video. I think that the xe and 780m head to head needs to happen. I know it would help me make my decision as I'm thinking of ridding my desk space of a normal machine.

I am anticipating your Oculink tests. I would love to see one of each attached. One Arc card, one AMD card and One Nvidia card.

need a vid testing out these new "core ultras"

Nice little thing! I dig these so much! I'm glad intel is doing these and is aiming to get small PCs to have good performance

Are core isolation turned off? It's turned on by default on win10-11 it tanks the performance alot i have laptop with 930m descret gpu and i get 20-30% performance gains when turned off

Really cool

I know this isnt something you usually do, but I'd love to see how emulation fares on this device

FINALLY, SOMEONE TESTED THE INTEL IGPU RT

i wonder if disabling e-cores and low power e-cores would improve performance by giving more wattage to the performance cores 🤔

Finally, a proper test of the Core Ultra 9's iGPU! Since memory speed benefits the performance a ton it would be great to see some LPDDR5x-7467 memory on this thing to give it it's full potential to finally beat some low end RTX Mobile GPUs like the 35W 2050.

G'day Random, It is really interesting to see Laptop Performance/Power Usage in a Desktop Scenario 5:12 🤔still getting Fallout 4 Glitches ??? I haven't played for a while but I remember how often when getting back to Sanctuary Hills quite often Trashcan Carla's Pack Brahmin would be on the roof of one of the houses or just Glitching in through the air like a UFO. As you are thinking about a 780M Comparison just wondering for games like The Witcher 3 where you used XESS, as the Upscaling Processes are different for intel & AMD can you also include no upscaling for a Baseline "Equal Quality Comparison", then add the "Upscaled for about 60fps AVG".

could that touch screen be able to work as primary monitor for giggles ?

That Ti naming gives me flashbacks to the 4070 Ti Super

ngl... the coolest feature of this thing might unironically be the stand, I feel like one of the problems with Nook type computers is that having them lay horizontally kind of negates some of the desk space you could be saving, a plastic stand to help it rest horizontally is a cheap addition that seems like it would have a great impact on how convenient the system is, I feel like it should be standard.

Could you retest this with ReBAR enabled? Those Intel ARC GPUs thrive with it!

One important thing to note: your monitoring overlay is too small, even when watching on a PC in fullscreen, and it’s kind of low res? I don't know if it's due to some encoding and compression that KZfaq applies when you upload a video, but it looks off.

4:57 Fallout 4 on the high preset on my laptop with an R7 5700U and the RX Vega 8 5000 iGPU performs very similarly

A comparison between this and the Radeon 780M/680M would be amazing

I noticed ReBar was disabled... As far as I know, you should enable it with ARC graphics to get proper frame rates.

4 inch screen in 2024 is kinda disappointing but it’s still pretty cool

The 780m is brutal. I get 50fps average in Fallout 4 on high 1440p. Cyberpunk runs with fsr balanced at 1080p medium quality at 50fps average and it looks really good.

Good to see that Intel are trying to compete now. A lot to spend on a mini PC though, given what you can get for the same price nowadays

These minis are getting amazing

Rgihd just doing the elite stuff nowadays

would love to see how stream games from gamepass etc workes. the day stream games start to work really good pcs like this will be the future. Edit: what target group is this for ?

Would you say this iGPU could take on a 1050 Ti, perhaps even a 1650?

Please do your Fallout 4 tests in Diamond City. A lot of the game happens there and performance in the city is muuuuch worse than elsewhere in the map.

does Minisforum allows tweaking memory settings? Some OEM sometimes unlock full settings on mobile platform like this. I remember some board variants of Ryzen 5 2500U allows ramping up memory settings higher than what it supposed to handle (2666MHz vs 2400MHz, not possible on my Acer Nitro 5 AN515-42)

I5-10400f and asus prime b460m-a - for 110usd - is this a good deal?

it generates ideas like why have that screen, or will it work on linux, also, how do i turn it off and also why did i got intel instead of amd

Nice

How much memory is dedicated to the Igpu with 32 gig mem kit? Like 12 gigs for gpu? I know with nab 7 its 6gig for 12 gigs of ram. im just hoping 32 will be enough. i do feel it struggle with only 12 gigs. thanks

It's impressive to see such a small little box run games this good but it's almost a 1000 dollars so no thank you.

This is unbelievable. I'd love it if in the future APUs become so good that you no longer need to buy a dedicated GPU to run most games.

nice nice nice

Strange that GPU-Z reports a 256-bit bus width for the ARC GPU. I wonder where that error comes from.

Strange thing with Baldur's Gate 3: I saw VRAM usage up to 8 Gigabytes... almost double that of Cyberpunk.

I would like some Skyrim specific spec advice. I have a friend who has been stuck on Xbox forever. He will never be convinced to buy a high priced gaming desktop/laptop and I don't think he needs one because he is mostly in to older games like Skyrim, Fallout New Vegas, etc.. I want to figure out what to recommend that will be a good set-top box type of setup that can play Skyrim very smoothly with high settings. Preferably not NUC-tiny because I want him to be able to cool it, but it has to be cheap, new hardware. Ideally an APU configuration so he doesn't have to be brutalized by the GPU market. Will need it for Skyblivion, so 2025 timeframe.

Yeah great. But can it run Crysis?

I'm wondering if it would help with the weird things happening in GTA5 if you would use DXVK. I'm a linux gamer with a shared steamdrive and the fps are (sometimes) a tad lower but more consistent. Cyberpunk's performance is the same with proton as on Windows, sometimes even a little bit better.

Interesting that this has dual 5G LAN ports... not sure who this is for exactly though. Maybe high throughput security cameras or NVMe file server?

Hello . Can u please let me know how to remove Fallout fps cap ? i have an issue where is half my monitor refresh rate. i get 82-83 fps on a 165hz monitor. I belive is something related to v-sync but i cant deactivate. i use a rtx 4070tis . thank you in advance

It has great specs,but the price is way too much for something like this.A laptop at that price can totally destroy it and for portability we have handled PCs that do incredibly well at a lower price,I think we are at a point where these being ""unique"" means overpricing them until they becomes more common in the market as usual. But this is my opinion,other may think that it's totally worth it.

not too bad, but way too expensive

As a second PC this could be a beast

These are waay better than my 1050ti mobile

Building a system around an intel processor with Oculink port seems silly. The screen is a total gimmick. The only mini PC I can see a use case for is the Minisforum EliteMini UM780 XTX with decent integrated graphics that can be upgraded if needed.

So I guess it's on par to 8600G with 680M ??

❓️❔️❓️❔️ Each Ethernet port is how much ? 5 gbps 😳 ? 2.5 gbps ? I have seen someone test 4k high assassin creed valhalla at 4k high, it was over 130 fps

Does intel have desktop cpu's with ARC integrated?

You should have played on the built-in display

This little PC is very interesting but for it's price, there are entire gaming laptops / so basically an entire system, with bluetooth, speakers, display, battery... and gaming/handheld consoles. So, this is like a NUC replacement. I like it overall, just not 1000$...

bit of a letdown tbh i expected more power from the GPU on such a highpowered maschine (yes i know its a intel mobile CPU chip but still) my mothers minis forum is not just a bit more powerfull than this.. whilst propably around the same pricerange

the port labels are upside down that would just annoy me

✨Ft.

Hey bro can you get a laptop with intel arc a370m graphics and test it

why 1% and 0.1% is lower than minimun framerate ??

Was reading up on Zen 6 last nite something which has Intel seriously cacking blue bricks with some industry insiders claiming AMD will be fielding retail CPU's with up to 256 threads in one die and a 3D form of intercommunication between CPU, RAM and GPU kinda like the Hexa format where the Hexa cores could talk to each other without having to go through a controller to path the operations and imagine that between 256 threads running O.o AMD is taking the virtualisation into a new dimension, even the lowlier 6x Zen architecture will make current top gen look like abacus's in comparison, big changes coming and AMD are looking into whether GPU's should be a de facto part of a CPU and do away with discrete cards altogether something that started with the mining crisis leaving many computer owners scrabbling in the dirt for decent graphics and AMD vowed this won't happen again so it may well be AMD owners in time will simply lose the expensive quickly obsolete video cards in favour of an all in one on a CPU.

Can it play Diablo 4 in 1440p?

How expensive is the atom man?

Hd 630 vs gt 710 2gb ddr5

For the same price you can get a laptop with the same specs ... So ... All the downsides of mobile hardware and none of the MOBILE. You get considerably less for the money.

gt 710 vs hd 630

Hmm, I have a feeling this is faster than my GTX860M.

Your ingame captures always look so muted for some reason I think its the colors, very noticable colorful games like Fortnite and CP2k77 and CS has too much brightness/gamma

I'm disappointed that intel is regressing. This chip was said to be made on 5 or 4nm and here we are at 7nm. The dGPU is a dGPU, not a modified iGPU like the 780m yet it had issues. This has the specs of the A380 which is very capable in it's desktop variant but seeming to be having teething problems on mobile. I expected so much more from this but as all things Intel graphics, it is a Fine Wine technology. Maybe I can't use that? Fine Cheese? Cured Cannabis? Not sure yet. But the point is, the longer you wait the better it gets. I have no doubt Intel will get all awesome legacy games to run great in time.

Its a nice looking unit with a good desktop presence but I guess the user is paying a premium for that if the $1000 quoted below is correct.

I skipped to the Witcher 3 part and immediately noticed stutter, it's the constant 0.1% lows spikes. Unplayable in my eyes.

Just a bit to expensive

I have the fastest 185h on userbenchmark 105%

your sound is doing lots of "pops" when you speak. Like on the letter P. This is not the first video where I notice that.

Well, a 670 dollar pc that perform in a small sized factor, you get what you pay for, pretty good

‌

intel is still not quite there, but hey, at least they're WAY better than they used to be

unless you buy now its going to cost £1000 that's not good value

is intel abandoning Iris Xe?

Mhm I still dont understand why this thing exist. its priced around 1k euros... For the same price u get a Laptop with same or way better specs, + Monitor + Keyboard...

2:11 : ehmmm , why ReBar is disabled ? was it disabled by default🤔 ? According to Intel statements ARC GPUs should have always ReBar enabled , otherwise they lose performance ,at least for their discrete ARC GPUs …

1000 dollars and its integrated graphics? The least they could of did was add a laptop gpu

For this price..this is just meh , you need buy monitor etc , but laptop outofbox you can use

never been this early

Intel 2014 ten years ago launched intel core series the 5th generation i5 5200U is whta i had with intel hd 5500 it could barely play games from that era and fast foward ten years later this integrated graphics are more powerful then dedicated ones

Atomman is such a freaking bad name it is painful. But hey its a beast

Why 0.1% so low everywhere... this smells like stutters all over.

Sponsored by AtomMan?

Compared to AMD counterpart this is bad....

Keep seeing stutters.

Integrated graphics have sure come a long way, give it a couple more years and I think you'll see external GPUs starting to come down in price just to compete.

this is an ad video

I doubt that Steve gives me a thumbs up.
