Both machines use AMD’s Ryzen 9 8945HX processor, a Zen 4 chip sporting 16 cores and 32 threads, with boost clocks reaching 5.4GHz. Minisforum lets the processor draw up to 100W, giving the Radeon configuration a combined CPU and GPU power budget of 240W.
That is a fair amount of silicon horsepower to squeeze into a chassis measuring just 215 × 57 × 315mm. Minisforum reckons its multi-mode cooling system can keep everything running without turning the machine into an expensive toaster.
The system provides two DDR5 SO-DIMM slots supporting up to 96GB of DDR5-5200 memory. Storage comes from two PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots, each supporting an SSD up to 4 TB.
Networking is reasonably well catered for, with 5GbE Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4. Minisforum has fitted a built-in 350W power supply, sparing users the traditional oversized external power brick.
Display connectivity includes two HDMI 2.1 outputs alongside DisplayPort 1.4 and DisplayPort 2.1. The selection should provide enough connections for a multi-monitor gaming or workstation setup.
The main attraction is the Radeon RX 9060 XT’s 16GB frame buffer, which gives it more breathing room for demanding games and graphics workloads than the 8GB GeForce RTX 5060 configuration. Whether that translates into a worthwhile performance advantage will depend on the workload and the cooling system’s ability to sustain the advertised power limits.
Minisforum is pitching the machine at gamers and content creators who want dedicated desktop-class graphics without finding room for a conventional tower. The company offers performance and cooling controls for users who prefer quieter operation or want to extract more performance from the hardware.
The AtomMan G1 Pro-89A6 is listed in the US with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD for $1,759, discounted from an advertised $2,199. Minisforum expects US shipments to begin in late October.
European buyers can get the same configuration in France for € 1,879, with shipments from the company’s German warehouse expected in mid-October.
