Can we just get AI feature free versions of everything that cost less?
5:00 Copilot buttons are a requirement from Microsoft to ship Windows 11 preinstalled on OEM devices (with AI certifications). Not really MinisForum's fault.
Your videos are so well put together and thought out. You are now my favorite reviewer when it comes to these types of products. I used to watch ETA Prime but his videos are basically commercials for all of these brands.
putting AI on the name and changing extra for it is diabolical
Almost double the price of 8845hs mini pc i bought recently. AI HX 370 prices make no sense for now.
If gaming is the priority, the 890M doesn't make much sense when PCs with the 780M cam be found for a fraction of the price and 80-90% of the gaming performance
I'd totally be interested in seeing how these interact with something like Bazzite or the actual SteamOS ISO I've seen going around.
Can’t wait for the AI Max 395+ version though, ultimately 370 is just the 890M where 395+ is with the new 8060S.
I love your honest opinion about the performance vs price that I don't find in many reviewers. Most of them just praise the unit and encourage people to buy when they really shouldn't especially, like you said, this mini-PC is not really geared towards gaming (unless you connect with an eGPU which of course add another $500 to $1300 to your original $9xx cost). I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you very much!
It is a bit more expensive on Amazon but right now its showing a 250 dollar coupon for me. Thanks!
OMG...that data sheet is invaluable 😮
It's great to see more mini pc's on the channel but I am worried about that price creep. I still have yet to make a purchase on my next rig cause I like the mini pc's but I do also want a smallish footprint I don't like a lot of visual noise. I will have to see what components will give me the experience I want but it's nice to know these machines are getting more powerful and smaller :)
RUSS IS GREAT 👍
I bought the 795S7 after your review, and love it. I was sold on the retro look as well.
Hi Russ, you can freeze title(2) row of your spreadsheet, so that headline will always be visible, even after scrolling far down.
[Thanks for testing this out Russ! 👍] 16:51 But still strange “black artifacts” in the net area. Guess it just boils down to the emulator. DC’s 2K Baseball also has similar issues.
One game that runs really well on it is FFVII. Can usually be in the VRR window at 1530p. Looks quite 4k like if you turn up the sharpness on your display.
Hey Russ the MinisForum mini PCs sometimes like this one have CEC in the bios. This makes them great for HTPCs. It's something I hope gets more implemented w other brands but this is something that reviewers will hopefully start to promote more so other manufacturers add this feature.
Awesome review! Saving my money, till the next mini pc release!
