- Minisforum’s latest high-spec mini PC, the AtomMan G7 Pro, goes on sale
- The Core i9-14900HX and RTX 5070 drive a slim aluminum chassis design
- Supports up to 96 GB of DDR5 memory with two M.2 slots including PCIe 5.0 storage
Minisforum’s latest mini PC, the AtomMan G7 Pro, is now available for purchase. The barebones version will set you back $1,359.90, down from its $1,699 MSRP, while the 32GB/1TB model with Windows 11 Pro is $1679.90, down from $2099.
Looking more like a game console or router than a traditional PC, the AtomMan G7 Pro’s slim aluminum chassis measures just 385 x 236 x 33mm.
It can lie flat on a desk or stand vertically with an optional base, keeping its footprint far smaller than a tower system.
Up to 96 GB DDR5
The mini PC is powered by Intel’s Core i9-14900HX, a 24-core, 32-thread processor with boost speeds of up to 5.8GHz.
The graphics come from an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 portable GPU with 8 GB of GDDR7 memory. AI performance is rated at up to 798 TOPS on the GPU, giving the system room for modern creative, compute and AI-assisted workloads.
Memory support scales up to 96GB DDR5 via two SODIMM slots, with speeds supported up to 5600.
Storage is handled by two M.2 2280 NVMe slots, one running on PCIe 5.0 x4 and the other on PCIe 4.0 x4, allowing up to 8 TB of total SSD capacity.
Cooling relies on a six-heatpipe setup with twin turbo fans and exhaust vents on three sides of the chassis.
The mini PC offers a range of operating modes that adjust power limits and fan behavior depending on whether you need speed or quieter performance.
Ports include USB4 with display output and up to 40Gbps bandwidth, USB 3.2 Gen1 and Gen2 ports, a USB-C 3.2 Gen1 data-only port, HDMI 2.1 FRL, 2.5Gb Ethernet, an SD4.0 UHS-II card reader and a 3.5mm combo audio jack.
Wireless connectivity includes Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, and the system can drive up to four external displays.
The AtomMan G7 Pro is another solid mini PC from Minisforum, although it won’t be the best fit for every buyer.
For a similar price, you can pick up the Alienware Aurora from Dell, which offers a faster desktop-class Core Ultra CPU and a graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and avoids some of the limitations that come with compact design.
However, that system is physically bigger and heavier, so it really comes down to whether performance or size matters more to you.
