The Minisforum AI X1 Pro has just made its grand entrance, building on the foundation laid by its predecessor, the EliteMini AI370. This new gaming mini PC continues to leverage the robust power of the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, enhanced with the Radeon 890M integrated graphics, offering gaming enthusiasts the ability to tackle modern AAA games with smooth performance.
What sets the AI X1 Pro apart is its advanced features tailored for gaming aficionados. A standout is its OCuLink port, positioning this mini PC as an ideal choice for those looking to explore eGPU setups. This connectivity enhancement opens a world of possibilities for users aiming to push the graphical capabilities to the next level.
In terms of memory, the AI X1 Pro offers a significant upgrade. Unlike its predecessor, which came with fixed LPDDR5X RAM, this model lets users take control with upgradeable memory options. You can now outfit the PC with up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM—an impressive leap for any serious gamer. Storage enthusiasts will also appreciate the inclusion of three M.2 2280 slots, compared to just two in the previous model, providing more flexibility and potential storage capacity.
Security and convenience are also in focus with the AI X1 Pro, featuring a fingerprint reader for speedy and secure access, as well as a handy Copilot button on the front—an upcoming staple feature in many future mini PCs compatible with the Copilot+ PC program.
Connectivity is rounded out with two USB4 ports, supporting additional peripherals and expanding eGPU compatibility further. This model merges sleek design with practical functionality, including a built-in power supply, making it both a stylish and efficient choice for desktop setups.
