EDIT: I waited a few weeks to make sure I still wanted one, so that this couldn't be considered an impulse purchase. It is, in fact, awesome. More powerful than a PS4 Pro in such a small, light, quiet package. I'm definitely using this as my fighting game machine when I travel and need to set up a casuals station. Not only is it significantly more performant than a Steam Deck, it ought to be less cumbersome to set up than a Steam Deck and dock.
Yup, it’s bottom of the barrel content. He also constantly engagement baits by asking people to comment if they want to see X or Y running on the machines he features, and he never actually does whatever he’s saying. It’s just a content farm.
He used to be good especially when the steam deck was first being released he did some good early videos on it. However it seems like in the last year or so every single minipc/handheld/etc vendor started sending him free review units and he feels compelled to do a video on every single one. He's probably got rooms full of awesome tech stuff that isn't being used, or he sells it.
I kinda stopped paying attention to him when he said oculink 4i has 8 lanes of pcie, or something like that.
Also him paying windows 11 any mind at all while acknowladging steam on Linux works fine for every game he tests is pretty cringe.
I watch a fair bit of this YT Channel. He plays with / evaluates a lot of hardware that I'd otherwise never see or even know existed. I also like that he evaluates using both Windows and Linux since I'm interested in both and from his perspective it widens his audience.
i 100% agree. i love eta primes dedication to optimizing his gaming experience. linux, windows, fringe handhelds... i love his ish -he's always feels honest and genuine
@mr_MADAFAKA I have that one running ChimeraOs and it plays great. They are great little machines. (Might try out Bazzite on it sometime I keep hearing good things about it).
