Ready-to-use mini PC for office and light gaming

The GMKtec M8 is a compact barebone system pre-loaded with Windows 11 Pro. An AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 6650H processor with 6 cores and 12 threads runs at 3.3 GHz base and up to 4.5 GHz boost. Integrated Radeon 660M graphics with 12 compute cores handle daily productivity, mid-range gaming and light 4K video editing. Sixteen gigabytes of LPDDR5 6400 MT/s memory are soldered to the board and cannot be upgraded.

Verify expansion needs

Dual M.2 2280 slots accept PCIe 3.0 or 4.0 NVMe drives up to 4 TB each for 8 TB total storage. The Oculink port provides a PCIe 4.0 x4 link for an external GPU but does not support hot-plugging; the unit must be powered off before connecting or disconnecting. A full-featured USB4 port delivers 40 Gbps data, 100 W power delivery and 4K 60 Hz video. Dual 2.5 GbE LAN ports and WiFi 6E are built in for wired and wireless networking.

Three BIOS power modes balance thermals and noise

Quiet mode caps the processor at 28 W, Balanced at 35 W and Performance at 40 W. A dual-fan cooler with 360° airflow and copper heat pipes keeps temperatures low across all settings. Triple simultaneous display output is available through HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4 and USB4. Multiple USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps ports provide fast peripheral connectivity.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must be purchased separately?

The unit ships with the mini PC, a 100W power adapter and a VESA mount. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed. The 16GB LPDDR5 RAM is soldered and cannot be upgraded. A 512GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD is installed; a second M.2 2280 slot is empty for additional storage.

Which version should I choose if I need more storage later?

Only the M8 16+512 model is listed. It already includes 16GB LPDDR5 and a 512GB NVMe SSD. Two M.2 2280 slots support up to 4TB each (8TB total), so you can add one or two drives later without replacing the original.

What does the 4.5GHz boost clock mean for real workloads?

The Ryzen 5 PRO 6650H reaches 4.5GHz on up to 6 cores / 12 threads. Combined with Radeon 660M graphics (12 compute cores) and 16GB LPDDR5 6400MT/s, it handles office apps, mid-range gaming and light 4K video editing. Three BIOS power modes (28W, 35W, 40W) let you balance noise and speed.
