GMKtec's new compact workstation model features the AMD CEO's seal of approval and bets on the Strix Halo chip.
GMKtec has unveiled a significant redesign of its EVO-X3 mini PC, equipped with the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor, known for AMD's "Strix Halo" architecture. The model was displayed with the approving signature of AMD CEO Lisa Su, indicating a direct alignment between the compact hardware manufacturer and the chip developer.
The machine is designed to function as an AI-focused mini PC workstation. The core component, the Ryzen AI Max+ 395, positions the equipment in the high-performance segment, intended for tasks that demand heavy local processing.
This is not the company's first release with these technical specifications. GMKtec had previously built a model around the same AMD processor, but the new version of the EVO-X3 brings significant visual and structural changes compared to the past design.
Lisa Su's approval, recorded in a signature on the product, reinforces AMD's strategy of expanding its hardware ecosystem into high-performance compact devices. The chipmaker's focus on AI capabilities is closely followed by partners that integrate its processors into small-form-factor machines.
The mini PC market has been gaining ground in both the professional and enthusiast segments, with manufacturers seeking to pair compact sizes with cutting-edge components. The EVO-X3 fits into this trend, offering AI-focused hardware in a compact form factor.
