We’re big fans of mini PCs here (for a lot of good reasons), and if you’ve been wanting to replace your noisy, bulky traditional tower with one, Amazon is making the upgrade easy.
Right now, you can grab the GMKtec mini PC with an Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor for $390 at Amazon, down from $550. That’s after a solid, but limited-time 29% discount. Note that we’re expecting the offer to wrap up soon, so it’s best to act fast to get your orders in.
Expandable Memory and Storage
Don’t let the size fool you. This mini PC runs on an 11th-generation Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor with 4 cores and 8 threads, along with Boost Speeds up to 4.8 GHz. The overall performance is much faster than the i7-10810U, i5-12450H, and i5-8259U options, and it’s specifically designed to handle everyday tasks – browsing, streaming, managing emails, light office work – without slowing down. The processor is paired with an Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 96EU GPU, which delivers up to five times higher graphics performance than entry-level integrated GPUs. That means smoother multi-monitor output, better gaming, and more efficient creative tasks that go beyond the basic display performance most other options in this price range offer.
There’s a modest 16GB RAM that takes care of multitasking, making it easy to juggle a bunch of tasks at the same time. You will be able to run a couple of apps at the same time, hop through browser tabs, and take quick work meetings; all without experiencing noticeable slowdowns. For storage, you’ve got a spacious 512GB NVME SSD that offers enough space to house all your essential files, media content, and even a couple of games. Both memory and storage are expandable up to 64GB and 2TB, respectively, meaning you’ll always have the option to upgrade your system as your needs grow down the line.
Connectivity-wise, you’re covered with WiFi 6, USB4.0, BT 5.2, DP, HDMI, and RJ45 2.5G. The system supports up to three 4K displays at the same time via two HDMI (4K @ 60Hz) and one USB Type-C (4K @ 60Hz) output terminals, so building a full-fledged productive setup for work and play won’t be a problem. And since the mini PC itself is quite compact, it does not take up a lot of space on your desk and leaves more room for peripherals (external monitors, keyboard, mouse, external drive). In fact, you can even mount it at the back of your main display, or under the desk for an even cleaner, more minimal setup.
The current discount lets you pick this tiny but mighty PC for just $390 today. However, as we mentioned earlier, the offer won’t be around for long. We’re not expecting it to last longer than a couple of days, so it’s best to place your orders while there’s still time. Once the deal is gone, we can’t say when the PC will be this affordable again.
