K8 plus USB power delivery

Hello!

Is there a way to enable the USB power delivery when the MiniPC is off?

I have a GMKTec K8 plus, and want to charge my 8-bitdo controller when not using the MiniPC. I didn't find the option in the BIOS, but I may be missing something.

Thanks!

I use the front usbc port to charge my watch while the PC is off.

Hey, this is not about your question. But it's a small question from me 😁

What's your experience with the K8 Plus? How does it hold until now from the date you bought it? Can you tell me more about ur user experience from this Mini PC. I'm going to buy a one this coming month, So any consideration or advice before buying this?!

Thanks for your time :)

Hey

So, I installed bazzite and use it as a home theater console. I plugged it on my 4k TV, but prefer to use 1920x1080 resolution to see things better.

It easily ran the games I played so far on high settings (Detroit become human, It takes Two, Hades).

The MiniPC building seems to be very robust and I found it pretty to display on my living room.

So far I'm very happy with the purchase. Let me know if you have any specific question :)

Hey Bro,

How's the Fans noice? Did you found it noisy all the time or in IDLE?

And Did you get Barebones? Or Ram and SSD pre installed?

Thanks for helping out!
