been eyeing the minis forum pcs for a while is it worth it?

Anonymous4/29/2024, 4:50:48 AM#7964b142

They look pretty sick. What are the specs? I think SFF with no graphics card is the way to go unless you really need to play new games on 4k resolution or do a lot of AI generating.

The size and design of this one captivate me more. Look how tiny it is. I'm guessing you need an external power brick for these? It would be cool if you could power them by USB.

Oh wow it is powered by USB... I might need to get this. The 1tb storage model is temporarily sold out it seems.

>>7964b142 AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS Radeon 780M, ram and storage are configurable. SFF is cool but I really like how compact are thoses pcs, also I'm pretty lazy getting a pre-built is more attractive option for me. >>80fced9c >>451ac4f0 yeah the EM780 is really wild but everything is soldered on the board.

Anonymous4/29/2024, 8:16:48 AM#7a61c3cb

>>968e21e0 I used to not want direct soldered either but they don't make babysize pcs with interchangeable parts from what ive seen. Plus there are some supposed thermal benefits and the compactness benefits. I'm gradually being won over to it regardless lol. Plus nowadays with sockets changing all the time realistically when you want to upgrade or replace your cpu you end up having to replace the mobo as well anyway.

maybe because it's impossible lol. i get your point though.

>>452a1315 I could imagine (and admittedly fantasize about) putting little babyRAM chips into their slots with plastic tweezers lol. I think the main thing is probably just since uSFF is a niche industry so it's not viable economically to produce those mini rams,mini cpus, etc just for a few hundred? thousand? people who might buy them per year. But maybe if they did exist, more people would be interested..

get the one with netbsd support and you can ssh into it from dumb terminals. 20 gb is plenty for netbsd.

Anonymous7/12/2024, 2:21:31 PM#9b909ec6

netbsd can even run on ewastes like android devices (using limbo), its slow but usable for w3m with tor on privoxy, and for telnet / ssh if it doesn't support netbsd, you install openbsd or debian minimal on it.

Anonymous7/12/2024, 2:26:34 PM#a62d8787

im not really a fan of cubed saucepans but im sure its powerful enough to run debian with icewm or motif window manager. have they got the same horse power as i5 6300u tablet pc? in my opionion, i5 has got super computer-likr speed compared to beige boxes with white or yellow 'intel' label

whose callsign is that, strange orb? Yeah i dont get what that is. if you could, type what you whispered so anyone can read.

>AMD Ryzen 7 Radeon

never heard of ryzen stuff but sounds powerful and has more orbs than i5

as i could recalled the last amd i ever used was duron and it was pretty much the same as intel

so you were there when the internet wasn't made for niggers?

>>80fced9c Ended up getting the EM780. This thing is tiny to the point where it can fit in a pocket. 0.4 L. Installed Arch on it and it's very relaxing. One thing is the fan isn't completely silent, so I may look into upgrading it if there's anything that would fit the same size in the case. But it's still really quiet, I'm mainly just comparing to my previous SFF Chopin Pro case build which is essentially completely silent under idle unless you put your ear right next to it. But this thing is like 1/20th the size of the Chopin Pro case.
