EVO-X1

Well "fanless" ≠ 32dB, but I understand the sentiment 😉 The SER9 I tried was definitely quiet by comparison. But that's to be expected with single fan cooling and a non-ventilated case. I read your post and watched the video but I'm still lost on something. In March the OpenClaw phenomena allegedly

After some trials and tribulations I went with the GMKtec K8 Plus. It was the only one with OCuLink with a decent reputation on the forum at the time. Currently TB5 (Intel/Apple) and USB4v2 (open source) are rarely supported on mobile devices. Apple for example has TB5 but no PCIe support for graphi

GMKtec is in the Top 3 Brands amongs Minisforum and Beelink. (Chinese Brand) GMKtec is on the rise and is a serious competitor to become in a very near future the Top Chinese Mini PC Brand, their ambition to become the major actor in the Mini PC market can be seen in their latest and upcoming models

Same here, I just recently switched to a mini PC with occulink support and connected my 3080 Ti, and performance was identical or similar to my current PC. And eGPU performance loss was virtually 0 with some games 10% loss. Time spy was around 1000 points lower from the eGPU with 20000 from 21000. M

To answer your questions. I have a GMKtec K8 Plus and possibly plan for a RX 9060 XT 16GB. I've read where people are happy with the 9070 and OCuLink. Considering the Aoostar AG01 with its integrated 800W power supply for a smaller footprint with better cable management. If anything OCuLink is the b

Recently picked up a GMKtec Evo X1 after tons of research. Can say it's great: stable and very little bloatware, none really just uninstalled a few Windows Store apps that I didn't need. I don't know the cycle of these mini PCs, but so far so good with brand.

I bought a gmktec evo x1 as my mini pc. Thr gpu is good enough for 1080p med to high gaming. If I ever want to play things that isnmore demanding, I can hook it up to my egpu setup via oculink.

Tbh, most mff and sff cases are highly portable, but if you truly want portable, have you considered a mini pc with a egpu dock? Everything fits in a backpack. I have a mffpc, and I have a mini pc (evo-x2 amd 395 8060s) and I picked up another mini pc, a evo-x1 to pair with oculink dock. With my tra

I'm still favoring the GMKtec K8 Plus. I run Batocera OS for classic console emulation which runs the RPCS3 and Xenia emulators to my satisfaction. Besides, it has x4 PCIe OCuLink if I need to take it beyond Steam Machine levels. I had originally looked at Beelink and Geekom but found they cut cost

Like everyone here. It's more about the space. My reasons was mainly due to the size. My tower was really big that at some point I got tired of carrying it around during cleaning sessions. The weight. Also the heat it would produce. During the summer I had to limit how often I used it because my roo
