AMD’s Ryzen 5000 series is the company’s crown jewel and we have already seen that the company’s CPUs have been heavily implemented in the laptop market. However, it’s a fact that AMD’s Ryzen 5000 series is yet to be implemented within the Mini-PC market.

The mini forum team on the other hand has offered a teaser showing a slightly larger device that is equipped with AMD Ryzen APU. According to sources, the device which the manufacturer is working on appears to be powered by Renoir, but the processor SKU label lists ‘X’. it suggests that the device might be powered by Cezanne silicon. And recent reports confirm that Minisforum is indeed working on 5900HX based MiniPC.
