It is almost as fast as an intel i7 3.40 GHz for only $450.00

Where can you get it faster for less than $600.00, remember this is an alternative instead of upgrading your current PC with a faster CPU or GPUwickedpotus wrote: ↑Fri Jul 02, 2021 4:54 pm Thats a pretty old mini-PC..

Re: For those with very slow PC to run your Engines Ryzen Mini PC
I found ASRock 4x4 BOX-4800U AMD online for 580usd. Why is there a "hard" cap on price,.. You Kind of get what you pay for and with chip shortages things are not free today...Chessqueen wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 2:01 pmWhere can you get it faster for less than $600.00, remember this is an alternative instead of upgrading your current PC with a faster CPU or GPUwickedpotus wrote: ↑Fri Jul 02, 2021 4:54 pm Thats a pretty old mini-PC..

Re: For those with very slow PC to run your Engines Ryzen Mini PC
I understand that you pay what you get for, but the issue here is weather to replace your current old chip on your old PC or to get an alternative for the same price or close to it and get the same performance as upgrading your CPU or GPU for the Money.wickedpotus wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 2:45 pmI found ASRock 4x4 BOX-4800U AMD online for 580usd.

Re: For those with very slow PC to run your Engines Ryzen Mini PC
It's impossible to have a single answer about this as it depends what machine you have to begin with, have what upgrade options there are (based on system-board etc) and what price you can get for a new mini-PC... Even by buying a "new" PC you could reuse for example SSD and/or DRAM from the old one etc.Chessqueen wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 3:02 pmI understand that you pay what you get for, but the issue here is weather to replace your current old chip on your old PC or to get an alternative for the same price or close to it and get the same performance as upgrading your CPU or GPU for the Money.wickedpotus wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 2:45 pmI found ASRock 4x4 BOX-4800U AMD online for 580usd.

Re: For those with very slow PC to run your Engines Ryzen Mini PC
I believe it all depends if you have a PC which is or Perform equal or less than an intel i7 4770 3.40 GHz, which you can only purchase for less than $350.00 as a refurbished, if NOT to get this ASRock 4x4 BOX-4800U AMD is a great alternativewickedpotus wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 3:14 amIt's impossible to have a single answer about this as it depends what machine you have to begin with, have what upgrade options there are (based on system-board etc) and what price you can get for a new mini-PC...

Re: For those with very slow PC to run your Engines Ryzen Mini PC
Absolutely... Anyone interested in Price/perfomance for Chess should look no further than AMD-based machines these days, Intel and Apple are lagging big-time in both price and performance.. And if GPU-engines are used - expansion with Nvidia-GPU is king.Chessqueen wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 8:41 pmhttps://www.geekbuying.com/item/Minisfo ... 26887.htmlwickedpotus wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 2:45 pmI found ASRock 4x4 BOX-4800U AMD online for 580usd.
