Minisforum recently launched the AtomMan G7 Pro, a high-performance mini PC designed for compact power. This system features Intel’s Core i9-14900HX processor and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card, all housed in a sleek aluminum chassis.
Compact Design and Build Quality
The AtomMan G7 Pro measures just 385 x 236 x 33mm, resembling a gaming console or router more than a traditional desktop. Users can position it flat on a desk or vertically with an optional stand, maintaining a small footprint compared to full tower PCs.
Powerful Performance Specs
At its core, the mini PC runs on the Intel Core i9-14900HX, a 24-core, 32-thread CPU capable of boosting up to 5.8GHz. Paired with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU, which includes 8GB of GDDR7 memory, it delivers up to 798 TOPS of AI performance. This setup handles demanding tasks in creative work, computing, and AI applications efficiently.
Memory options reach up to 96GB of DDR5 via two SODIMM slots, supporting speeds up to 5600MT/s. Storage flexibility comes from two M.2 2280 NVMe slots—one at PCIe 5.0 x4 and the other at PCIe 4.0 x4—allowing configurations up to 8TB total capacity.
Cooling and Connectivity Features
Cooling is managed by a six-heatpipe system with dual turbo fans and vents on three sides. Multiple operating modes let users balance speed and noise levels based on needs.
Connectivity includes a USB4 port with display output and 40Gbps bandwidth, USB 3.2 Gen1 and Gen2 ports, a data-only USB-C 3.2 Gen1 port, HDMI 2.1 FRL, 2.5Gb Ethernet, an SD4.0 UHS-II card reader, and a 3.5mm audio jack. Wireless options feature Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, supporting up to four external displays.
Pricing and Availability
The barebone version is now available for $1,359.90, reduced from its $1,699 MSRP. The configured model with 32GB RAM, 1TB storage, and Windows 11 Pro costs $1,679.90, down from $2,099.
Comparison to Alternatives
While the AtomMan G7 Pro offers strong mini PC performance, buyers might consider the Dell Alienware Aurora for similar pricing. That system provides a faster desktop-class Core Ultra CPU and a graphics card with 12GB VRAM, though it requires more space and weighs more. The choice depends on prioritizing size or raw power.
