Mini PCs are accepted by more and more users because of their compact and portable design and strong performance. The small host of the zero brand, most of which use a similar shape to the mobile phone charger, the same small 5525 interface power supply, buy an extra charger and put it in your pocket after work to take it home to use, the performance can fully cope with the daily office and home entertainment needs, I would like to call it the almighty small host.
Previously, my content has always revolved around a variety of gameplay methods for small hosts, including virtual machine deployment, and Synology allows small hosts to do NAS:
Small host deploys plex to be a home audio-visual ** center:
and Mac Mini replacement, Zero Tick Ser5 Max into Mac OS:
Today, let's talk about the collision between the mini host and the switch, in addition, because the zero moment SEI is equipped with an i7-level 12650H processor, which is quite powerful, there will also be a host performance test in the future.
The Zero Tick SEI series uses Intel processors, and the packaging adopts a family-style blue and white combination design, which looks simple and refreshing.
The appearance design of the SEI 12 is also the consistent style of zero carving, the fabric top cover takes into account heat dissipation and appearance, and the weight of the whole machine is a little more than a pound, and you can take it with you in your pocket when you commute to work.
The left and right sides are hollow metal mesh heat dissipation design, which can ensure that the equipment can operate at a reasonable temperature.
The front of the SEI 12 offers 2 10Gbps USB-A ports, a Type-C port at the same rate, and a 35mm headphone jack with the iconic small red dot power button.
On the back, it provides 1 Gigabit Ethernet port, 2 USB-A ports, 1 DP port, an HDMI port and 1 DC power interface, and the top design has a heat dissipation grille to enhance heat dissipation.
The power supply is still a small power adapter with a specification of 19V 526A, providing a maximum output of 100W, compared with other brands of brick power supply, portability can be said to be far ahead, you can buy more power supply and throw it at home.
Sometimes we want to be able to play games on a big screen without interfering with other things on the computer, so this article is for you.
The mini PC is delicate and compact, and it is perfect for making an HTPC in the living room.
If you want to play Switch on a large screen on a desktop, especially a laptop, we need to prepareA USB capture card, and OBS Studio software.
Select the capture device, and then we can play the game on the big screen of the computer.
* The article attachment, the file that comes down looks like this:
Install (actually, unzip) file 1,Install it in a path that does not have ChineseGo to the installation folder and create a "user" folder.
Run the application with the shortest name in the folder, the missing component (missing key) will pop up, and after clicking OK, it will pop up to use data sharing, just select NO.
Then we run Document 2 to explain how to modify the location of the press file to the keys subfolder under the user folder we just created. At this time, it is not surprising that the switch and mini PC have been successfully combined.
Installing the firmware is not mandatory, and is mainly used to prevent garbled fonts or other unexpected minor problems in some games. Run file sequence number 3 to extract the contents folder as shown in the figure below, and a registered folder will be added, and this is done.
Have some fun playing some games.
If you play somatosensory games, it is recommended to choose the original controller directly, after all, judging from the information on the Internet, you need at least one original controller to complete the pairing.
Sometimes we encounter that the switch game format is XCI, in this case, our small host cannot read it directly, and needs to be converted to NSP format, at this time, we need to use the nscb tool.
Enter "1" for single file processing, then drag the XCI file to the command line window, press enter to confirm, then enter 1 "Start processing", enter "1" again to repackage as nsp, and then ask if it is magically modified, directly enter 0, no magic modification is required, and then wait patiently for repackaging, and enter 1 to exit the program after it is finished. The repackaged files appear in the nscb output folder.
Use Master Lu to pull the specific hardware configuration first, 16GB*2 DDR4 notebook memory from Critical and Critical CT500P M2 SSD SSDs.
Use the entertainment master to run a comprehensive performance score first, 88160,000 points,It's already possible to wrestle with some desktops,It should be noted that there is almost perfect temperature control and noise control on the zero moment SEI12,Even in the case of high load on the desktop、The device does not give people a noisy feeling。 On the other hand, it also shows that the default power consumption limit of SEI12 at Zero Tick is conservative, sacrificing part of the performance to achieve quiet performance in office and entertainment scenariosHowever, users can adjust the PL by themselves through the BIOS to obtain higher performance.
Many friends are a little disdainful of Master Lu, so let's pull out the PC mark10 for testing, PC mark10 can better reflect the performance of the computer in the daily office environment, the final test score is 4991 points, you can put a hundred hearts in daily office applications.
The Intel i7-12650H is a 10-core, 16-thread processor with 6 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, with a maximum turbo frequency of 47GHz, the maximum turbo frequency of the efficiency core is 35ghz
A simple benchmark score on processor performance using CPU-Z yielded a single-core score of 6654. The multi-core score is 39969. The single-core performance is similar to that of the 7840HS processor carried by the Zero Tick GTR7, which is slightly higher by more than ten points, and the multi-core performance is weaker.
Tested using 3DMark's CPU profile, the maximum thread score was 4251, 8 threads scored 3350, and 4 threads scored 2295.
The Intel i7-12650H is equipped with Intel Iris XE Graphics with 64EU specs, 512 stream processor units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs with DirectX 12 support, which ensures that all modern games can run on the 12650H.
The core graphics performance test scores are as follows, the FS score is 3876 points, and Apex Legends can get 90+ fps data at 1080p; With a TS score of 1171 and an NR score of 15609, this hardware performance is like playing LOL, and traditional DX11 games are still fine at 1080p
Shadow of the Tomb Raider was tested at 720p and ended up with an average frame rate of 24 fps, if you're looking for a device that can play triple-aStill have to tick GTR 7.
The default video memory is only given 1GB, which can be said to be quite conservative, and if it is increased to 3GB and above, the performance should be improved.
3A basically doesn't have to think about it, but simple games like "LOL" and "CS:2" can still be handled by the company, and "LOL" can even be handledAt 4K, it achieved a score of 58fps, and the processor temperature was only 65 during this time.
Tested with AIDA64, D4 memory frequency is 3200MHz, read speed is 46576MB s, write speed is 43707MB s, copy speed is 42635MB s, latency is 1077ns, the timing is 22-22-22-52 cr1, it seems that the intel host uses more d4 memory.
Use cystaldiskinfo to view the parameters of the hard disk, and the standard of the SSD is NVMe 14. The specifications of the hard disk itself are PCIe 40 x4 and in PCIe 4Runs in 0 x4 mode.
Tested with CrystalDiskMark showed 4694MB s sequential read, 1908MB s sequential write, and 59% 4K read84mb s with a write speed of 306At 97MB S, the Critical CT500P is an entry-level PCIe40 hard drives, which is quite enough for such performance on a mini PC.
The highest temperature of the whole machine is only 77, the temperature is well controlled, the fan speed is 2637rpm, and the wind sound is a very soft feeling, just like the rustle of autumn leaves, it doesn't sound noisy.
The 12650H processor equipped with SEI12 has extremely strong performance, which can easily meet the needs of non-professional offices, and mainstream online games can also be handled, which can be called an all-round small host.
Mini PC is not only a few tenths of a desktop computer in terms of volume, but also has an advantage over a laptop, it should be said, in many scenarios, Mini PC is more suitable than a laptop, zero moment SEI 12 barebones system is only 1900+, 16+500G combination is only 2300+, I personally think it's quite fragrant.
