======================================================================GMKTec 
EVO-X2 offers Ryzen AI Max+ 395 power at a surprisingly low price GMKTecs 
compact workstation promises serious AI performance High-end specs in a mini 
PC make EVO-X2 perfect for creative and AI tasks 

Following the official launch of the GMKTec EVO-X2, a compact yet powerful 
mini PC powered by AMDs flagship Ryzen AI Max+ 395 APU, the device was listed 
on the Chinese market for CNY 14,999 (roughly $2,066), which appeared to be 
rather on the steep side. 

However, the device has now arrived in Europe, where buyers can unlock a 
reduced pre-sale price of 1,499 for the base model by paying a $100 deposit. 

Those who want the higher configuration need to place a 200 deposit to 
qualify for a discounted 1,799 final price. All orders must be completed by 
May 7 to receive the full discount. Ryzen AI Max+ 395 brings 
workstation-level performance 

The GMKTec EVO-X2s CPU is based on the Strix Halo platform and comes with an 
integrated Radeon 8060S GPU using the latest RDNA 3.5 architecture. With up 
to 40 compute units and a total power budget of 140W, the EVO-X2 marks a 
serious leap forward in AI-capable compact systems. 

As AMDs strongest integrated chip to date, the Ryzen AI Max+ 395, brings 
workstation-level performance into a smaller footprint, making the EVO-X2 one 
of the best workstation PC options for creatives and developers alike. 

The base model ships with 64GB of LPDDR5X memory running at 8,000 MT/s and a 
1TB SSD, while the higher variant comes with 128GB of LPDDR5X memory and a 
2TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. 

These features also make the EVO-X2 an excellent choice for users looking for 
the best laptop for Photoshop . Even though its a desktop, its compact mini 
PC design is mobile enough to compete with traditional laptops for creatives 
who need raw power. 

The EVO-X2 isn't just about internal specs. It comes with a wide range of 
ports, including USB 4.0, USB 3.2 Gen2, USB 2.0, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, 
an SD card reader, and dual 3.5mm audio jacks. Network demands are handled by 
a 2.5 Gbit Ethernet port, and theres a dedicated button for fan control as 
well as a mysterious "Performance Mode" switch. 

Considering the hardware packed into this device, it could even rival the 
modular, enthusiast-focused Framework Desktop , while undercutting it in 
price. 

The GMKTec EVO-X2 is positioning itself as one of the best mobile 
workstations available, combining compact form, cutting-edge performance, and 
future-ready AI acceleration.
