GMKtec has not yet officially announced the EVO-X5 mini PC, but an unreleased engineering sample has appeared in the Geekbench database. This leak reveals a high-performance configuration that suggests the company is preparing a powerful desktop replacement for users who need serious compute power in a small form factor. The appearance of this device in benchmark lists signals that GMKtec is actively testing hardware based on AMD's latest desktop-class silicon.
Unreleased engineering sample reveals high-end specs for upcoming mini PC
The benchmarked sample features the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 processor, which AMD codenamed Gorgon Halo. This chip represents a significant step up from previous mini PC offerings, as it is designed for demanding professional and gaming workloads. GMKtec previously confirmed plans to use this specific processor in its EVO-X3 model, indicating that the EVO-X5 is likely a distinct variant or a higher-tier configuration within the same product family.
Leaked Specifications
- Processor: AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 (Gorgon Halo)
- Memory: 128GB
- Max CPU Frequency: 5.24 GHz
- Vulkan Score: 103,729
Technical details from the Geekbench listing show the EVO-X5 sample equipped with 128GB of installed memory. The processor achieved a maximum CPU frequency of 5.24 GHz during testing. In the Vulkan graphics benchmark, the system recorded a score of 103,729. These figures point to a machine built for heavy multitasking and intensive graphical applications.
We looked at GMKtec EVO-X3 Mini PC Launches With in our earlier Gmktec coverage. That previous model established a baseline for what this new processor can achieve in a compact chassis. The EVO-X5 sample suggests GMKtec is pushing the limits of thermal and power delivery in these small enclosures. Readers interested in high-end mini PCs should watch for an official announcement regarding pricing and final specifications.
The current information comes from an engineering sample, so the final retail memory configuration may differ from the 128GB seen in the leak. GMKtec has not released any official details about the EVO-X5 launch date or pricing. Until the company provides a formal statement, the specifications listed in Geekbench remain unconfirmed rumors. We will update this story when GMKtec officially introduces the product.
