Corsair’s compact AI Workstation 300 mini PC is getting more expensive, with new pricing that makes the Strix Halo-based system noticeably pricier than it was at launch.
It’s been almost a year since the AI Workstation 300 debuted in July 2025 as a small-form-factor workstation aimed at creators, developers, and power users who want high performance in a space-saving design. The original lineup started at $1,599 with AMD’s Ryzen AI Max 385. Higher-end configurations featuring the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 were available from $1,999.99, with liquid cooling designed to help the system sustain strong performance inside its compact 247.5 x 188.4 x 96.5 mm chassis.
Now, Corsair has quietly adjusted pricing upward across the range without offering a clear explanation.
The base AI Workstation 300 configuration has risen by $100. A setup that includes 64 GB of RAM, 1 TB of storage, and the Ryzen AI Max 385 is now priced $100 higher than before, pushing the starting point to a level that’s about 6.25% above the original launch price for comparable specs.
The bigger jump hits the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 models. Corsair has increased those configurations by roughly 35% to 48%, depending on the storage option. One likely factor is that the company pairs the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 exclusively with 128 GB of RAM, which raises the baseline cost. Even so, the pricing shift is significant: Ryzen AI Max+ 395 versions now start at $2,699.99 and climb to $3,399.99 when configured with 4 TB of storage.
For shoppers considering a small AI-focused workstation, these changes mean the AI Workstation 300 sits in a higher price bracket than it did at launch, especially for anyone targeting the top-end Ryzen AI Max+ 395 configurations with large storage.
