  • Great price. I believe this is a mobile 8600G, the lower power/cooling and slower ram will hurt performance but the lowest I have seen the 8600G go for was ~$260 (Amazon US deal) on its own.

    • This would be plenty good for streaming some geforce now 4K120 and moonlight with my PC right?

      • +2

        Easily.

        Im using a Ryzen 2400G with moonlight 4K60 is easy, uploads on main pc at 12MB/s. I think for 4k120Hz bandwidth might be more of an issue not sure.

        • Cheers, the 4K120 was more for geforce now, would this also support AV1 for geforce now?

      • +1

        Maybe overkill? Someone with more knowledge of moonlight can help.

        An AMD 6600H mini PC is ~$410, 5560U is ~$300 and an Intel N100/N95 is ~$250.

        • the Intel models are the only ones with hardware AV1 encoding / decoding.

          • @gizmomelb: Quicksync in general is not to be underestimated on the Intel chips. The new N97's are wild.

          • @gizmomelb: Interesting. Personally I pay the most attention to the iGPU since that's the bottleneck in my use case, Intel's a no go for me because of that.

            • @Hiphopopotamus: if you're streaming to the Intel then it won't be making much difference, what GPU you're streaming FROM is the bottleneck.

              • @gizmomelb: I don't have a proper gaming PC, no streaming.

                • @Hiphopopotamus: ahh my mistake sorry, the streaming comment wasn't made by you. The newer AMD and Intel systems are due shortly, but yeah you're not going to be AAA gaming even at 1080p with one of these for the next half dozen or more years at the very least. Generally low to medium settings at 1080p for more modern games is all you're going to be looking at. I mean my intel n100 runs 1080p upscaled PS2 emulated games at 60hz (some games do drop below 60, but majority at rock solid) and I play a lot of older PC games on it as well (running under WINE as I use linux mostly).

    Specs OK for the price.

    Personally I wouldn't buy a Minisforum - they are one of the better known Mini PC vendors, but reviews are very mixed on their build quality, quality assurance and after sales support:

    E.g.,

      Minisforum has a very good build quality. Been using a 790M for a few months now and no issues. Can't really speak about after sales though. But it's certainly better reviewed than geekom.

  • can i use photoshop/lightroom easily with this (for editing raw image)

    • +4

      Too bad he's so heavily paid off that he never says anything negative. Everything is amazing.

      • That's too bad. Honestly I didn't even notice, I'm generally skipping through and looking at the numbers when I watch PC reviews.

        • I really like the Robtech YouTube channel for mini pc reviews. Aussie guy reviewing for the American focused market, but it's irreverent, humorous, informative, and he's built in previous numbers and benchmarks.

          He hasn't done the 760 yet though, but I think his are worth a watch. https://youtube.com/@robtech

      • That goes for most YouTube reviewers. It’s all infotainment.

        Better to find a proper review site where you can properly read the analysis and compare charts without needing to skip back and forward in a frustrating video.

        • +1

          Oh yeah almost all of them are getting it for free but there's still plenty of big names who can review it properly. It's just important to remember when watching ETA that it's an advertisement.

  • Reviews well. I think Minisforum have be improved in the past few years.

  • Are there any good 7840 laptops

  • is windows 11 included?

    • +1

      Comes with Windows 11 home

  • can anyone comment on the performance comparison to this one?

      • Oh no watchout, the listing points to a differently-specc'ed machine…

        They used to have the Bosgame P3 but the link now goes to Bosgame P4 which is slower.

        • You're right! Sneaky!

          • @EpicSpaceLord: Your previous comment about more core but older processor js still valid though… I was wondering whether this one is better deal compared to BOSGAME P3 since 760 is probably more powerful than 680?

  • 760m vs the older 680m graphics are very similar from the benchmarks I've seen. Obviously go the 780m if you can afford

  • great find @EpicSpaceLord

    I bought the MSI Cubi N100 and apparently it was too slow for running some 22GB 4K movies of Stremio. The included WIFI 5 chip was not adequate for Moonlight streaming. It doesn't have Wake On LAN which is annoying when you want to remote desktop into it when its sleeping. Also, it was advertised with HDMI 2.1 but the graphics card (Intel UHD 630) doesn't even support 4K 120Hz so I'm returning it.

    The BOSGAME P3 Ryzen 6900HX posted last month (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/866952) seems to be on par with this MINISFORUM UM760 but the BOSGAME doesn't have HDMI 2.1. It has WIFI 6E/BT5.2 and USB-C charging.

    The MINISFORUM UM760 has all the BOSGAME P3 performance and features but also HDMI 2.1 4K 120hz (tested) and CHEAPER! I was able to test the performance with 100W USB-C charger.

    • always used a wired connection for better stability and throughput. Wifi is too tempramental and dropouts will wreck movie and game streaming.

      • Thats self explanatory but not always ideal in different situation based on the physical location of the devices.

        I haven't had any issues ever since upgrading to the $30 wifi6 chip even on the n100. However, it had other issues which were present even when wired
