GMKtec Evo-X5 Pro Packs Ryzen AI Max+ 495, 192GB RAM
GMKtec's Evo-X5 Pro mini-PC pairs AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 with 192GB LPDDR5X-8533 memory, up to 160GB VRAM, and a $6,799 starting price.
GMKtec has launched the Evo-X5 Pro, a mini-PC built around AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 processor. The chip carries 16 Zen 5 cores and 32 threads, with a 3.1 GHz base clock, a 5.2 GHz boost clock, and 64MB of L3 cache.
The headline spec is memory: 192GB of LPDDR5X-8533, delivering up to about 273 GB/s of bandwidth. Up to 160GB of that can be allocated as VRAM for AI models, a configuration aimed at local inference and other memory-hungry workloads.
Pricing starts at $6,799 for the 2TB SSD model and $7,099 for the 4TB version, as reported by Tom's Hardware. Early-bird buyers can take 6% off through the super early-bird tier or 3% through the standard early-bird tier, though only the first 30 units qualify for the larger discount. Existing Evo-X2 and Evo-X3 owners get $50 off with code X5P39550, and bulk orders earn $10 off for two units, $20 for three, or $40 for five.
Cooling comes from a vapor chamber paired with three fans. GMKtec lists three performance profiles: 54W silent, 85W balanced, and a performance mode rated at up to 120W sustained with a 160W peak.
For storage, the Evo-X5 Pro offers three PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots — two wired at x4 and one at x1.
