Minisforum the custom PC manufacturer has introduced a new AMD-based mini PC model. Surely, there are many AMD-based mini-PC models introduced in the market however, this newly launched mini-PC is somewhat different from the rest.

The new all-AMD system is aimed at gamers and is Minisforum’s first true gaming mini PC model that also features an open case design.

The new AMD-based GameMini system is quite a bit longer than any previous Minisforum square-shaped model. The reason for this being that the open-air case is fitted with desktop-grade components rather than ULV components.

The GameMini includes a Gigabyte Aorus B550I Pro AX mini-ITX motherboard and an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Hexa-core CPU which can boost to 4.6 GHz (with a non-stock cooler) also a newly released AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT riser-mounted on the opposite side of the motherboard.

The gaming mini-PC also features 32 GB of DDR4-3200 RAM from HyperX, 1 TB Kingston KC2500 M.2 SSD storage, and a SilverStone SX650-G PSU that supports a more powerful CPU and GPU upgrades.
