I turned this little system into a powerful Linux server. The AMD Ryzen works with Ollama for running local AI models. I only wish it came with options for more memory. When prices on DDR5 memory return back to normal, I plan on upgrading the memory. It was also easy to add a second NVMe M.2 2230 SSD so that I have physical separation for dual-booting Linux and Windows. No thermal issues even under heavy loads. I love the aluminun case.

Overall, the Geekom AX7 Pro is an excellent mini-PC. The only issue I had was it came with Windows 11 23H2. Setup took longer than expected because of all the updates. I was able to update it to 25H2 through Windows Update. After all the updates, the machine runs very fast for a laptop/mini PC. Geekom just needs to make sure the systems they sell have the most recent version of Windows 11. Read more

I purchased this new mini pc, the 89HS 2TB variant and my hope for purchasing this computer was to serve three purposes. I wanted to be able to play the latest games, be able to quickly charge my smartphone and tablet, and have an HDMI-to-HDMI video and audio connection because with my last mini pc, I did not do my research and ended up buying a computer that only had DisplayPort and as such had to use a HDMI to DisplayPort adapter. Being that integrated graphics are not ideal for playing the latest high demanding games, I knew that i had to buy a computer with a very fast processor and fast memory and as such is how I decided on getting this PC. The games that I have tried on it so far put a heavy load on this PC as the fan kicks in and there is some slow down after playing for a while, but it does not take away from being able to enjoy the games for me. The fan is not loud at all, and the PC gets very hot especailly during gaming sessions but as stated the slowdown is not that bad in which it would take away from the enjoyment of playing the games for me. I did a clean install of Windows 11 23h2 using a USB flash drive and it appears as this pc is using drivers that are not very well known as I had to go to the Geekom website to get the missing drivers. I am using a 1080p TV that I have this pc connected to and as such have no interest in higher resolution gaming. This pc has three USB ports that support power delivery but one of them, which uses a USB A connector does not seem to work for charging, but it could be that I need a proper USB A to C charging cable. So, in the end, while this computer can play the latest games at 1080p on medium graphics setting, I would not consider this to be a gaming pc for the reason that it runs very hot when gaming as well as there being some slowdown and that is my biggest concern with this pc as I will be using it to play games. The good thing is that it does come with a three-year warranty, so I hope not to have any issue should I need to send it in within three years for any problem that may arise. I highly recommend this PC for anyone who is looking for something small and powerful. Read more

You MUST research this product carefully (A9 Max AI Mini PC). I have had it for a few days and have heavily researched the problem I'm having with it. According to what I've found, there is a KNOWN hardware problem that causes it go into something called S0 Low Power Idle mode (unpredictably and even in the middle of operations) AND CANNOT BE RE-AWAKENED. The user must do a hard reboot with the Power Button and is left with no clue what happened to any operations that were in process. Obviously, this is completely unacceptable and I have written GEEKOM for assurance that the KNOWN HARDWARE PROBLEM will be corrected before my 30-day return expires. Please believe me that no amount of Windows 11 tweaking (I've tried at least 15 suggestions from online gurus) can even work around the problem and have been advised that it's OS-independent. For techies, I've been told that S3 Sleep State is now "legacy" and is completely unsupported on this machine. In short, unless you want a computer that ungracefully shuts down (while leaving the light on and not allowing you to see anything until you reboot to a blank slate), you might want to look elsewhere. UPDATE: After several back & forths with GEEKOM support, including rolling back the AMD display driver as their support site recommends, GEEKOM itself recommended that I return the unit and could not assure me that the problem would be solved within the 30 days Amazon allows for return. They continue to blame it on AMD, but rolling back the AMD driver did not help. ADD'L UPDATE: Geekom has added both a new BIOS (v.20) and a new EC (v.18) to their support site, along with an entirely new set of drivers. I have tried multiple times and with multiple thumbdrives to update the EC and have failed every time. An easy Windows .exe file was able to update the BIOS--apparently not available for the EC. Geekom says that one all this is updated, I'll be ready for a new AMD graphics driver that they assure me AMD is working on at Geekom's urging. There's just too much frustration and their English-language tutorials are badly written, so I'm within one night's sleep of throwing in the towel and returning for a refund. FINAL UPDATE: With Geekom's encouragement, I finally decided to return it, but I did discover one other issue. I could not access the necessary BIOS settings to allow VirtualBox to run on it (but I was successful in running Hyper-V); even with Ctrl-H advanced BIOS settings accessed (a shortcut to downloading the BIOS unlock), I could not turn off whatever was refusing to let go of Hyper-V so that VirtualBox could run; I presume this could be resolved by a BIOS update but I did not bother Geekom about it because we had already decided I needed to return the unit for other reasons.
