NucDeck - The DIY windows gaming handheld - Episode One

Please make a tutorial

Great project!

Thank you tomshardware, now I found an amazing channel

I like how u think 🤔

Can you kindly go in detail with the battery and how u have soldered it?

I wonder if using a laptop with a gtx1070 mobile and a mobile i7 from 2017 as the internals for one of these would be possible to make a truly powerful handhand console with a massive amount of compatibility since it's using nvidia drivers and is built from the ground up to work as a native windows machine. Not that the NUC isn't a native windows machine lol, but the addition of a dedicated gpu to one of these rather than it being an APU would be something to see.

I wann this

What des IT cost

So cool man 😎 I will be watching all your videos now 😅

Great Job man but your NucDeck can in no way compete against a Steam Deck performance and battery wise. Intel Chips is way too low end to get play any recent games, plus price. 400 bucks is a tough one to beat. But you’re really are a mad lad! Mad props to you, the result is astonishing nevertheless. Especially later videos. Making the buttons was so epic!!

I don't think your playlist is in episode order, but I'm loving the series so far, seems like a fun system to develop for - all the modern conveniences of developing for Windows, but old enough that optimization still matters. And being able to assume touch and controller support means a lot as well. And, of course, anything that runs on this will run great on the Steam Deck, too. Thanks for the videos!

based on the bored size you could prob use a ryzen apu nice

When will it be for sale

Love the great work!

I highly suggest trying to run Linux on it if possible, as the overhead for it is substantially lower than that of Windows, so it will run cooler, have better battery life, better performance, and just generally be better. It is often less stable compared to Windows, but in a device where battery life and heat are a concern, it might be worth the trouble.

how about Chromebox? like i7 8550u available for around $80 US

I like how DIY handelds are popping up after the steamdeck. Bringing modders and enthusiasts into the handheld space is so much fun!

wow an open source handheld, never thought about open source for hardware.

Dude just make your own brand, ur too good to not be paid🎉

Awesome, i just want to know about the motherboard. did you design your self or use any dev boards ?

open source? this brother is doing what song with they could I love how compact this is. This design is very modern and sleek. You guys are the real deal.

Can it play wii u or ps5 games

What’s the gpu and vram on this

Is there any Vega 12 and quad core cpu models

Cool project, hoping it goes well!

NucDeck? So like... the Neck?

my mate and i are thinking about making this with a beelink ser5 with amd 5500u ,the mobo is the same height as the intel nuc but a little wider

You are a freakin legend

good design, but I can't understand why use a closed source OS with such a competent and shiny open source design

Which nuc is the best that's fits now? And screen?

Small tip: If you have an RTX graphics card, you might wanna try out the eye-focus utility of NVIDIA Broadcast when you are reading your scripts.
That might reduce the feeling that you are just reading a script and make the video feel more natural (no guarantee though - just an idea)

Great work. Looks great 👍

This is amazing

The xulu xr1 mini pc would work great in this

Man! Google News letter popped up an article about this and your channel! I'm a DIY guy myself! I watch videos like yours and try to give it a shot.

awesome project! hey do you have TDP control working on this? i think my handheld control panel will work on this older Intel board

Hi. I'd like to know the model of your cnc please?

god damn it, im kind of deaf or something... using any nuc available IS your target

Can you make it powerful enough to run VR games? Say half life alyx? Or something newer?

Dan you're simply superb

Outstanding work 👍

I love this project! I personally wouldn't need that much power and I want to try to make one with a celeron mini pc and see if it can be smaller with better battery life.

OKestGamer sent me. super excited to see where this can go

Hardworker plus talent at same time... Love you bro... You are very smart

Gonna need a banana to scale-how wide is this?
Comparing to the 10" steam deck

This is awesome!

Good luck!

why not an amd embedded soc ?

Put an MXM card gtx1080 into it😉

We have to somehow get Linus Tech Tips to pick up on this. I can see this being a project he'd happily look into help funding, or at the very least support!
