I'm looking for a device that consumes as less as possible, to run: - pihole - torrent client - nas - web server for home

I have a RPi Zero which is perfect for pihole, but barely runs the torrent client. I am looking at HP T530, Dell Wyse 3040, and similar hw but I don't really know which one will drink less juice. Thanks!

I have been looking to buy a mini PC for a few weeks now and am totally confused. I think I would like one based on a Ryzen 9 7940HS or a R7 7840HS. I have watched a ton of YouTube videos and some talk about the heat issue where the PC just reboots or locks up, etc. I finally found a YT video that said the Minisforum UM790 Pro did not have heat/reboot problems. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEaykuDJROQ

I went to Amazon to look at reviews and there were several/many that said the UM790Pro had heat/reboot problems. Some of those complaints were from people that did not game and had the problems when the computer was just idling. Anybody have any insights to this problem?

My main goal for the mini pc is retro gaming emulation. I want to be able to play ps2, ps3, and Nintendo switch at 4K 60fps. Not really interested in modern gaming i have a a ps5 for that. If someone could steer me in the right direction I’d highly appreciate it

Hey,

I need a minisforum or beelink that support 4k 120hz with no problems, planning to use it with LG C3.
Is there any users of minisforum um790 pro or beelink ser7 that were able to output 4k120hz?

I've been surfing through this subreddit and other forums, but were not able to find proper answer.

I have some family coming over from the US to the UK in a few weeks. I’ve been eyeing up a ser7, and noticed it’s £140 cheaper on Amazon.com vs amazon.co.uk. Given they are externally powered, is there any difference between US and UK units?

So I bought a mini PC from eBay mainly to use on my TV in my bedroom for streaming and maybe some light gaming/emulation.

The thing is the WiFi connectivity on it is absolutely awful. It has an Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265 inside.

It seems absolutely fine when the range is small - I was able to game on it using parsec when it was in the same room as my main PC - however my bedroom is quite far from the router. It is honestly pathetic up here, took me 10 minutes to download a 40mb driver update and YouTube is unwatchable.

The thing is my phone doesn't struggle at all, it gets ~100x faster speeds, and maybe ~50x after I updated drivers.

I imagine these are designed for an office environment with a number of WiFi access points, I.e. low range applications?

Just wondered if anyone else had any experience with this and wanted to chip in before I try replacing the WiFi card/trying a beefier USB adaptor.

I wanna run gta v on my poco x6 pro any possible way to run it ?

Hello all, I would like to setup my tablet for emulation for different emulators for n64, gamecube, ps1, ps2 and so on.. Sometimes I want to connect it to TV with possibility to connect 2 or more joysticks for local multiplayer. Which types of gamepad do I need? Do I need to buy some USB hub so i could connect usb dongles (+usb2HDMI for TV) or there is possibility to connect multiple joysticks via Bluetooth direct on tablet. Any suggestions are welcome 😁 This question is more related to hardware equipment. Do most of emulators for android support such setup?

Regular skyline, not skyline edge. I specifically need build 2173 if anyone has that. Thanks!

Hey im trying to Play HP but unfortunately after casting flippendo im getting serious slowdowns. I'm at the very first minutes of the game, didnt walk out of Weasleys garden and figuring out what can I do about the performance. When Im trying to catch minions and facing Weasleys, Im getting lagged too. Im using Poco F5 Pro 12/256 GB.

Have you managed to fix those slowdowns?

So I'm using Yuzu 278, I'm using Turnip driver v24.1.0 v18 and standard settings. I set my game booster manager to performance mode on my S24 Ultra with ADRENO 750 and 12gb ram. The first time I ran BOTW the game was running around 30fps with stuttering at normal speed, now it runs smoothly at 16/17fps but it moves at slow motion... Did I do something wrong without noticing? Can I do something in particular to fix the issue?

I have literally tried any and all methods of getting cheats to work for this game. Nothing is working. I've tried the pal rom, USA rom. I've even used the codebreaker rom and it works but it makes the game freeze. Does anyone have a working pnach file for cheats on Jak II(USA) rom?

I'm trying to play splinter cell conviction on winlator, but it keeps saying "No audio device detected". Help
