1) The mini-pc has 2 mode options 45W (Balance mode) and 54W(Performance mode).
1.1) Where can I switch them in the BIOS?
1.2) How can I find out which one is currently on?
——- Please check the tutorial https://buildin.ai/lizong/72b2499a-c9bd-46a5-ad64-1088e268b895
2) The mini-pc has Thunderbolt 4 with 100W PD3.
2.1) Does this mean that you can power the computer and output a picture at the same time? For example, if the monitor has a USB Type-C with support for 100W.
———There is a possibility that the monitor may not supply enough power to the PC.
If the monitor’s USB Type-C port is rated for 100W power delivery but in practice doesn’t consistently provide that full amount, or if there are power losses during transmission, the PC may not receive sufficient power.
This could lead to issues such as the PC not powering on properly, experiencing unstable performance, or shutting down unexpectedly.
3) The mini-pc support triple display Thunderbolt 4 (4K 144 Hz), DisplayPort 1.4(4K 144 Hz) and HDMI 2.1(4K 120 Hz).
3.1) Does this mean that you can connect 3 monitors 4K 144 Hz,a 4K 144 Hz, 4K 120 Hz at the same time?
————Yes.
3.2) If this is not the case, what resolution and frequency of monitors can be used simultaneously?
3.3) If I want to use two 4K monitors at 120Hz, is that possible?
—-Yes, one connect to the Display port, and the other connect to the HDMI port.
3.4) Can I connect 5K or higher monitors? According to the description, this processor supports up to 7680×4320@60 Hz via the displayport.
——No, it doesn’t support 5K.
3.5) By the way, based on the description, the device supports up to a certain frequency of 60 Hz. However, can it also be used at higher frequencies, albeit with a lower resolution?
—–No.
3.6) If you use multiple high-resolution monitors, will this affect the performance of your computer?
———-Yes. Using multiple high-resolution monitors may have an impact on computer performance. High-resolution and high-refresh-rate display output requires the computer’s graphics processing unit (GPU) to process and transmit a large amount of data. This may occupy a certain amount of GPU resources, resulting in a slight decrease in performance when performing other graphics-intensive tasks such as gaming and video editing.
4) The mini-pc has two fans.
4.1) Are there any modes for the fans and can they be controlled?
—-You can refer to the tutorial https://buildin.ai/lizong/01c2045d-6e3a-4fe3-9646-9041dbd7c93a
5) The mini-pc has Thunderbolt 4.
5.1) Is it possible to connect an external graphics card to this device using this port? Are there any limitations on the type or power of graphics card that can be used?
—Yes, you can use thunderbolt 4 to connect EGPU. No limitations.
6) Linux support.
6.1) Are there any additional drivers needed when using Linux? For example, I have noticed that the device’s Bluetooth does not wake up the computer from sleep mode.
—–We don’t have related linux driver for it, but you can find the drivers at kernel.org
7) Other.
7.1) Where can I find the latest bios versions and do they exist?
—– Currently, we don’t have updated BIOS for this model yet.
7.2) Where can I find various other useful manuals, drivers, etc. for the mini-pc.
——–You can get the drivers at https://dr.bee-link.cn/index.php?dir=uploads%2FSEI%2FDriver%2FSEI12700
You can get the user manual at https://dr.bee-link.cn/download/dXBsb2Fkcy9Vc2Vycy1NYW51YWwvQmVlbGluay1TRWkxMi1Vc2Vycy1NYW51YWxfMjAyNC0wOC0wOF8xMC0zMS0zNC5wZGY=/h/96ed3ecbbe84f7ab36434b646801463e
7.3) If you use USB Type-C to output an image, then the computer takes a long time to turn off. What could this be related to?
——–Hardware and Connection Issues:
①Compatibility issues between the computer and the display device connected via USB Type-C. Some displays may not fully comply with the standards or have quirks that cause communication problems during shutdown.
②Software and Driver Problems:
Graphics driver issues. Outdated or incorrect graphics drivers might not handle the shutdown process smoothly when using the USB Type-C output. Updating the graphics driver to the latest version might solve the problem.
③Background processes. Some applications or processes running in the background might be interfering with the shutdown process. Try closing all unnecessary applications before shutting down to see if it makes a difference.
