GMKtec EVO-X2 silver 2025
Packing a 16-core Ryzen AI Max+ 395 APU with 40 RDNA 3.5 compute units and 128GB of 8000MT/s LPDDR5X memory, this mini PC delivers GPU performance between an RTX 4060 and 4070 laptop while allocating up to 96GB as VRAM for massive local AI models. Its triple-fan cooling system keeps noise to just 35dB in Quiet Mode, and the chassis includes 13 customizable RGB lighting modes alongside quad 8K display support via HDMI 2.1 and dual USB4 ports. This is best for developers and AI researchers who need to run 70-billion-parameter LLMs locally without relying on cloud services.
