- andai 2mo agoI wanted to say, 5 watts, doesn't HL2 already run on Raspberry Pi? But then I realized, this thing seems to be powered by some kind of rpi? https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/uconsole-kit-rpi-cm4-lite https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/uconsole-kit-rpi-cm... That's pretty cool though, do you have a video of it running on the device itself?
- bullen 2mo agoThis is captured+streamed on the device with ffmpeg, but mobile phone video no. Got a short of my own engine though: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/LKYX7E3A0Dk https://www.youtube.com/shorts/LKYX7E3A0Dk
- andai 2mo agoDamn this is so cool. In the future, a computer may even fit in your coat pocket!
- Rohansi 2mo agoI know it's not as cool but the Steam Deck can run HL2 at just as low power consumption with its AMD APU.
- bullen 2mo ago"A normal Steam Deck consumes about 4 to 7 watts of total system power when idling on the home screen with low screen brightness." Maybe HL2 brings zero overhead to idle then? Anyway X86 is the past, risc-v is so completely lost into eternal future... only ARM really works right now.
- Rohansi 2mo agoYou can do less on the OLED with a few tweaks in the quick menu. Specifically the OLED because it has a more efficient APU. Limit APU to 3W, disable radio, maybe more. > Anyway X86 is the past, risc-v is so completely lost into eternal future... only ARM really works right now. I don't disagree but all of the recent Raspberry Pis have worse performance, cost more than x86, and barely use less power. There are so much better examples to showcase ARM.
- ErroneousBosh 2mo ago> Maybe HL2 brings zero overhead to idle then? It went like particularly dry shit off a teflon shovel on my Duron 700 when it was new so I can't imagine it would tax a nice modern chip much.
- potwinkle 2mo agoYou can run HL2 at 1080p 60fps in 5W on Armada on the AYN Thor (on the Eco performance profile). That includes a screen and speakers.
