Something with the Ryzen 780m or 890m integrated graphics & that has a oculink or USB4/thunderbolt port My vote is the Gmktec k8 plus it has been a little powerhouse for me it plays most games med-high settings 1080p 50-60fps and with the oculink port you can buy a eGPU dock and graphics card down t

There isn’t a simple and good solution for time crisis 2 with 2 players in my opinion unfortunately. Time crisis 2 in arcades ran on 2 separate cabinets linked together, the game has 2 players going on different paths with their own guns and screens. MAME for arcade emulation also doesn’t run TC2 we

If you live in any part of the Apple ecosystem the Mac Mini M4 is a plus! My granddaughter has a 24GB Mac Mini M4 and lives almost exclusively in the Apple ecosystem (iPhone/iPad/Apple watch/Apple TV/etc). Having said that, she still has a Windows laptop she has to use a couple of times a week for a

I have a Beelink SER5 which is a Ryzen 7 6800U and it plays PS2 games perfectly with upscaling. It does an impressive job at keeping up with PS3 and WiiU games, as well (at least the LEGO games, which were the main ones we ran).

Let's try to get as close to "Apples-to-Apples" as possible, using a 1-year warranty, dependably sourced Beelink SER8 8845HS as the example.

Technically, none of these Chi-NUC brands have been on the market long enough to warrant "reliability", notably with Geekom & GMKtec having less history than Beelink & Minisforums. Possibly, the best perspective is customer service. Beelink currently has the best consensus, with Minisforum taking th

We love our beelink ser8 8845 we got 6 months ago. The wife uses it for her side gig, plus I use it for 3d printing and other generic home items. She even games with it. It’s a work horse. Now we did splurge a bit and bought it with 64GB of RAM and 2TB of SSDs.
