I'm no stranger to Chinese Motherboards, be they X79, X99, or even the odd XBOX One S variant that popped up a couple years ago. But this latest board from Erying left me absolutely speechless in the BEST WAY POSSIBLE!

But first... What am I drinking???

The only thing better than today's Chinese Motherboard with the beer I opened to go with it. From Beauregard Brasserie Distillerie in Montreal, QC comes their Amaretto Truffle, a 9.0% Strong Dark Ale that was even more impressive than the Intel Tiger Lake on display here.

  • Hey, there are some brazilian youtubers who tested this kit, and they found out how to set the memory xmp correct profiles and all this little things like letting the cpu hold the boost for undefinelied amount of time. But be aware that the mobo heatsink are not the best to that situation. A good youtuber that had made a good amount of testing on this mobo is called Mario Mazotti.
  • @GOPACKERSJT
    These need to come out in the ITX form factor. This would be awesome in a media PC since it won't need a giant cooler.
  • @AdamBGames
    With how it fairs with multithreaded workloads and its low wattage, this honestly would be an excellent choice for server use, mix this with a HBA card in the PCIe slot and an M.2 2.5Gig or 10 gig lan port. 2 NVMe drives for redundant boot devices and a small case. This is excellent value.
  • @sokmunky4104
    Prices have already went up to $300+. As soon as anyone reviews these things the prices always double or more.
  • @zr0dfx
    Just so you know, we definitely want to see an update video or 2 on this one 😊
  • @Andy_Panda
    Mobile chips on a micro ATX board is a "brilliant" idea for small form factor, low power and heat controllable machines. Love it!
  • @Viking8888
    This was the most natural Jeff has ever been in a video. (IMHO that is) The least amount of "News Anchor Voice" where every end word of a sentence is drawn out way too long with a high inflection. 😉
  • @denkrblx437
    nice! dawid made a video about this motherboard today aswell.
  • @titanhd2274
    I purchased the non-ES i7-11800H board that they sell a few days ago, this video has me very excited given that this performance is from the ES version. I originally bought the board for use as a home server, but now I might give it a shot to see how it stacks against my i5-12400 when paired with a 3080. It’s very exciting to see these neat things at these price points.
  • @felixandy
    Great video!!! I did the HP Z440 build you showed a few months ago. I will be building this one too!! Keep up the great work!!
  • @ivovass195
    Very interesting proposition and great value for the performance available. Tempted to get one of these even with the gamble on the es version being decent. Thanks for sharing with us
  • @RM-hn6ir
    Currently using one of these boards with a Chinese 6600M as my main computer. Gentoo is snappy. Big upgrade over my FM2+ system.
  • @WILDouglash
    Dawid did a thing on this earlier and I will still say it's worth it for a smaller simpler build that could still be relevant for at least a few years. The GPUs that would work well with this set up should hold up for even longer.
  • Nice and more technical review of this board Jeff. I could see this being a great setup for a htpc/gaming or low power homelab machine. Dawid just did a review of this board with an i7, always a fun watch.
  • @PickleLotion
    just ordered one of these with the VRM upgraded heatsinks Erying offers. Super excited! More videos with this please! I will pair mine with a corsair aio
  • @manfromthesky
    Sadly this went up in price nearly 100% + going out of stock while the non ES versions are even more expensive. Nice video though.
  • @GearSeekers
    This is VERY cool! I love these whacky motherboards
  • I did consider the offer the company has relating to these boards. Full details are on the sales pages. Way back in the day, I did run an intel mobile cpu that was known to be compatible with the then cpu socket in use. The one I had, didn't overclock much, It's main advantage was significantly lower power requirements.
