Another YouTuber, Retro Game Corps, has a video on the same mini PC I ordered. The Minisforum UM580. Which will ship at the end of the month (September 2022). So very much looking forward to getting my hands on it. You can see the video > here or below. The main use for the computer will be games. Do have some on Steam, Epic and GoG. Then there is the emulation side. Which this can do really well. Have a big stack of PS2 I would love to play again. Will be back will more posts once I get it my hands.

It hasn’t shipped yet. That will not be until the end of the month (September 2022). Talking about this again because the YouTuber ETA Prime put out a video on this very computer. Which you can see > here or below. While it is not going to run the newest AAA games. There will be 1000’s of older ones. All so planning on some emulation.

Seen some videos of the upcoming Minisforum UM560. That it was super cool and had the features I liked. In my last posting talking about this was very much on the fence. Thought about getting a Steam Deck but the wait list is far too long. All so can’t get my hands on a PS5, which I was planning to buy a birthday gift to myself. Well made up my mind and ordered a Minisforum UM580. This is a bit more powerful than the UM560. That model ships at the end of August. The one I got ships at the end of September (2022). So my guess it will be here some time in October. All so even with the conversion of Canadian to US money it was still cheaper than a the middle model of the Steam Deck.

Now that they have gotten better at running newest games and all so better at emulation. Now might be the time to get one. Did have my eye on getting a Steam Deck but that will be some time next year before you will be able to get your hands on one. Seem some video’s on this > here Minisforum models. They are running a pre-sale discount. Then the ship out at the end of August 2022. The price is right but think that is in US funds. Need to look into it more.
