how well can the compute stick run minecraft?
>>55468197
1080p 30fps
Like shit.
Try older games (early 2000s-2006 max)
>>55468213
does it ever overheat? what about streaming games
>>55468218
It handles bf4 with 14fps, minecraft all shouldn't be an issue.
>>55468244
i think you can stream Bf4 from steam or xbone to it without a problem as long as the wifi is good

It's thermal throttled.
You can't really do much with it.
Though streaming isn't very intensive.

Depends on the stick. But the cheap 8.1 compute sticks run like garbage.
And I bet even the newer cheap ones run like garbage.
OP is much better off building some cheap PC if he doesn't need the portability.

I saw a video of some guy playing minecraft on an atom.
It ran smooth but explosions lagged like a motherfucker.
It was the ideapad 100s. Newer atoms Di with better ipc and graphics might be enough.
Alternatively just build an a8 7600 pc for a little bit more and much better performance.

Or an intel mini-itx build if size is an issue.

Hmm the compute stick uses quad or dual core atoms processors. The newer types use the more expensive m5 processors. I think the main problem with them is the thermal output because they tend to get quite hot which causes thermal throttling and lowers their performance.
>>55468406
Throttling shouldn't be an issue for atoms.
These pc sticks are very aerodynamic for the effective heat dissipation

>dual core atoms
Yeah from 5 years ago. New ones are quad core.
Can it be used as seedbox?

Why not use a $15 orange pi pc instead?
