Vip-Urcdkey Sale Code for software: ETA

In this video, we take a closer look at the Radaxa X4, a credit card-sized mini PC that can run Windows or Linux. We do an unboxing, heatsink install, test some 4K video playback, PC gaming and emulation like PSP using PPSSPP, PS2 with PCSX2 and Gamecube using the dolphin emulator.

I actually love the fact that you ran Cyberpunk on it. 😀 It truly gives one a benchmark of where this thing sits performance-wise.

[Reecetafarian]

There are 12gb and 16gb versions available. There are several retailers that sell them and and only some places carry all versions.

[BusAlexey]

It's insane that n95/n100 is this scalable, from small sbc to full laptops

[MajinRose]

Bro catfishing with the thumbnail!! I thought bro got a new set of nails I was about a hype mans up! 💅🏾

[gshaw]

Imagining a Zen 5 version of this would be awesome!

I’d love to see a USB to Ethernet adapter attached and pfsense or opnsense run through its paces to see how well it would run as a firewall/router. And add in a Wi-Fi 6e or 7 access point (with 6 GHz) for wireless connectivity and have all bases covered.

You need to review these embedded system sbc's other features beyond how well they run the same emulators

[relaxationmusiccertified]

for that price, I'd rather buy a Beelink n95 mini pc for $120. 8gb upgradable ram, 256gb full size nvme (upgradable), ssd slot, built in fan, and case.

[tseckwr]

You always do a grand job on reviews. Thanks mucho.

With 2.5GbE and USB 3.2 gen2, this SBC would make a decent budget NAS and/or backup server. You could even run SATA storage directly from the M.2 slot using an M.2 M key SATA adapter board. Someone needs to offer an enclosure that also holds multiple 3.5" hard drives and a PSU.

I was impressed that MR ETA PRIME didn't mention that on a YT test, first, he went to YT settings and changed a video codec from AV1 to VP9 in order to be able to perform on this processor....

[braindead]

Finally he is talking about a device I can actually afford.

[dktol]

The Radxa store on Aliexpress is showing the 16GB variant - no emmc (wifi??) - for about $123 + $9 shipping. The price premium for an extra 8GB seems a bit high, but the extra RAM would be useful in a number of use cases.

[baremetaltechtv]

the fact that sbc could even get in game on cyberpunk is amazing.

[everx]

had the slowdown in Ratchet&Clank too, adjusted the EE Cyclerate to i think it was 130% but if wrong its 180%, it wont self implode ur PC or something, so no ones hurting by trying, it gets the worst slowdown out, still u can notice if u concentrate only on this. Still its better then going from 60 to 30 and between, also tried all renderers and its there with all of them

[bryancampbell]

You can definitely see the power difference with all the bigger components. Need a nice little heatsink for that chip.

[Phathom]

16GB model is $123.22. For those prices, just easier to get a N100 mini PC that includes DDR4 16GB RAM 512GB SSD WIFI5 BT4.2 for $112.

[oasismike]

This seems affordable and any old stock cooler could probably work.
I very much enjoy this type of content over the tiny/mini/micro's with the latest AMD chip's (which are just too damn expensive, but, I'm not gaming and just want a cheap portable desktop, so maybe I'm niche).

[lostasian]

Eta prime can you do a video on a x99 motherboard with Intel xeon CPU combo for 41 dollars on AliExpress? I would love to see how you would do a budget build with it. Great video btw I love your channel!

[MINKIN]

An x86 SBC in a Pi form factor. That's actually pretty nice.
