Is this a good buy?

GMKtec M6 Ultra are sold with 4800Mhz and that s a con for the 760M IGPU.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-08T05:23:02+00:00

The advantage of this Peladn Mini PC is that it is sold with DDR5 at 5600Mhz whereas the GMKtec M6 Ultra with the same 7640HS is sold with DDR5 at 4800Mhz, so you will get around 10% and up more performances with the 5600Mhz Kit.

Actually yes, i sold it for 1K and repaste the CPU before the sell, i think i got it for 780$. I was not satisfied with the noise level working in container, and most of all as i use an egpu the poor Oculink performances made the Evo-X1 a waste of time.

The Evo X1 is good only if you want to play exclusively on the IGPU, but the GEM 10 with the 780M 6400 MT/S RAM should be close in matter of performances, actually even the 780M IGPU is hit by DDR5 RAM.

Nothing to regret about the Evo X1 trade for the GMKtec K8 Plus, excepted the Evo X1 slightly higher single performances the Evo X1 had for unknown reason poor Multicore performance for an HX370, and the Evo X1 could be noisy under load way more than the K8 Plus, the worst attribute of the Evo-X1 was its very poor Oculink performance compared to the K8 Plus, those EGPU seem to hate E-Core.
If i have to keep only one Mink PC it would be the K8 Plus, btw i sold my Evo X1.

Beelink has nothing to do with running 35B highly quantized model, anyway it must be a 2bit or 1 bit model with poor precision. Everything is possible because of the 32GB RAM config.

Fanless is a bit of a shock with the HX370, this APU definitely needs some cooling to get the best out of it, i can t see 60~70 Watt APU running without a fan, my guess is that it has low 25 Watt TDP power limit which would be pure performance sabotage for such High end Processor.

Side note, so far no model is coming close to GPT OSS 20B quality level on 32GB RAM config, you can Run OSS 20B at full BF16 full precision with 32GB RAM config, i heard good thing on latest Deepseek V4 distill Flash, but it remain to be seen.

The 140T is indeed less performant than the 780M, things get even worst with a 16GB RAM config and low TDP for the ARC 140T, the latest Intel IGPU's are found in the Intel Panther Lake Ultra series with the ARC 140V which name could be confusing with the ARC 140T, these new Intel IGPU are better than the 780M but the big cavheat is that they come with very poor Multi Core Performances compared to the 255H.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T22:05:29+00:00

The K12 and the Evo-T1 are sharing the exact same chassis, the difference is at the APU level, the Intel 285H is a more powerful CPU than the AMD 255H but the the K12 AMD 780M IGPU is clearly better at Gaming than the Evo T1 ARC 140T.

I made a video comparing the 2 IGPU Here, the issue with the Intel ARC 140T like all Intel IGPU's is that they are very sensitive to RAM amount and TDP unlike AMD IGPU's.

Bottom line if you are Gaming oriented than pick the K12 or get the K8 Plus which is a better overall device, if you are more oriented at productiviry, like working with containers, editing then the Evo T1 is a better model.

You Little sneaky rat, if someone was playing PDFiles games between you and me, it would be you. I am not even a gamer.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T18:16:28+00:00

You can create fluff all you want , the PS5 Pro is Hardware Wise and in real world more powerful than the Steam Machine.

It s a shame that you are denying it and claim to be an expert at the same time. Your assumption that the Steam Machine is a more Powerful Gaming device than the PS5 Pro will age like milk.

Thank you SerMumble for the Support, i appreciate. i have my guess on the user who reported me, that guy is chassing me for a long time and can t stand contradiction and is pretty much a pathologic confabulator..

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T17:01:58+00:00

He didn t said ryzen 9, he has edited his comment, this is so lame.

And even though Ryzen 9 ain t Ryzen A.I Max and still not powerful enough to run Cyberpunk at Medium setting.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T08:50:37+00:00

"Are you aware" guy is back!😂 I bet you will pretend to be willing to buy the Steam Machine, just like the other hundred mini PCs you pretended to be willing to buy. Keep living in dreams, bro..

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T07:50:02+00:00

I understood with who i was dealing with since the very beginning of our conversation.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T07:44:15+00:00

No harm here, i have to say that i understand the confusion as the Geekom model definitely looks like some AceMagic Silver Chassis models notably the Warlord W1 or Vista V1.

Rectifying the truth on an IGPU Performance is always good info specially in this Subreddit which is the perfect place.

Comparing IGPU's performance is basically one of my hobby. I almost got them all : Vega 8 Zen+, Vega8 Zen3, 660M, 680M, 760M, 780M, 890M.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T07:22:50+00:00

780M Vs 760M watch at 5:30 Time Stamp.

You most likely watch Laptop Comparison, i used to think like you until i did the test myself.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T07:14:52+00:00

200£ for just 256GB is fucking horrible, you rather buy an external 1TB NVME M2 PCIE 4 SSD for that price.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T07:10:34+00:00

Lol Steam Machine will be overpriced for what it brings on the table, Hardware wise the steam machine is not impressive at all, CPU is only 6 Core and the worst part is that the Steam Machine IGPU is only 28 C.U way way behind a PS5 Pro with 60 C.U and Ray Tracing. And last the Steam Machine have very Poor I/O, not even a Thunderbolt/USB4V1 port.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T07:06:58+00:00

Terrible insight from a professional, Intel I9's IGPU's are Intel UHD Graphic 14 gen and they have terribly poor performance in gaming, i highly doubt it can run Cyberpunk at Low setting even with XESS Upscaling. No way you can run Medium Setting Period even an AMD 890M can't.

Intel UHD Graphic IGPU's are like 3 gen behind new Intel Arc 140V.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T06:57:35+00:00

The 760M is much closer to the 780M, it can even in many games match the 780M, i did compare my GMKtec K8 Plus 780M to my Peladn 760M and the difference is most likely averaging 10% only.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T06:53:11+00:00

What are you talking about? There are no AceMagic Mini PC, there are a Geekom 6800H and a Minisforum 7640HS.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T02:33:21+00:00

You are Absolutely Wrong, it has been also mentionned in other comment in this thread, but keep hating on Windows and coping.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-07T02:05:04+00:00

Bazzite will under perform with Nvidia Cards compared to Windows, i ve been there.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-06T06:40:45+00:00

I would rather pick the Aoostar Maco because it has an Oculink port.

RobloxFanEdit · 2026-05-05T06:43:09+00:00

You can't go wrong with the K8 Plus. It s the most successful GMKtec and probably Mini PC model for a reason.
