We are actually getting is cheaper than in the US. They are going to pay $450 USD which is about $736 AUD more than the $699 AUD we will be…

Haha, yeah put a card that draws 311W into a handheld with a 5220 mAh battery and enjoy 120 fps 4K gaming for all of 15 seconds. > D

$3 is 0.42918454935% of $699.

This is true but it also generally works in your favour when it comes to selling physical games secondhand. I don't buy physical games…

This is correct. I paid $120 AUD for Street Fighter Turbo on SNES in 1993.

Because its a handheld/hybrid. It's obviously not for you.

I haven't tried 4K gaming on it. It probably could under the same conditions (XeSS). The PS5 and XBox use a bunch of resolution scaling to…

Nice work. Yeah I like the form factor and being able to fit a current/older midrange GPU in it is a real bonus. The GPU I chose (Intel Arc…

Yeah it's not really a Mini PC anymore, although it is considerably smaller than any ITX case I've seen. Also fits a desktop GPU. This was…

It's MUCH smaller. You don't need it but if you are looking for a VERY small form factor PC you will have a hard time making one at this…

Sure, but a 395 Max version with no SSD, 64Gb of soldered on RAM and the non-replaceable 8060S iGPU is nearly $3,000AUD.

Yeah I was also looking at the HX100G (https://store.minisforum.com/products/elitemini-hx99g-hx100g) and the AtomMan G7Pt…

That would be a great option. You'll need a GPU as well as that for proper gaming. I went with the NUC (no RAM or SSD) but that one…

Correction: Minisforum BD795i SE has mobo and CPU, not GPU.

I believe so. My understanding is that they largely sorted out cooling and cable management on this one. When closing the top of the case…

Pretty sure that this is not the same product.

Yeah I have been looking at a bunch of Mini PCs. I am incredibly lazy and the NUC required only RAM, an SSD and a GPU to have a complete…

Is this the same item? Looks like a custom equivalent.

I have been after one of these for ages but couldn't warrant the $1,500+ price tag. I think these were over $2,500 at launch. Now available…

Oh wow, that was a great price!

Got a link for this?

I bought 2 Steam decks from Kogan (before they became available locally). One died and the experience with Kogan was excellent. Sent me out…

I paid $1250 for my OLED Steam Deck. Now available locally for $850. Can't say I regret it though.

Yeah the U5 seems to outperform the U7 in some instances. May have changed since the driver updates.

Bazzite is super smooth on AMD GPUs. It can be hit and miss on Intel Arc GPUs. I have 2 AMD based gaming PCs and I put Bazzite on my NUC12…

That's a great laptop and a much better price but I was after something smaller. Would have definitely got the Slim 7i if it came in a 13…

Price has increased to $649

Yes, if you don't need/want the Elite CPU.

Yeah, I was hoping for a bargain on a 13-14" laptop but the current 20% discount brings a very expensive laptop down to an expensive…

I'm comparing this to a Surface Laptop 7 with 32Gb ram and 1Tb SSD. They are currently about $2,450 - $2,650.
