The fastest Intel-based mini PC from GMKtec is going to launch in two days, and here's what you can expect from the configuration.
Mini PC maker, GMKtec, announced the launch of its latest mini PC series called EVO-T2 nearly two weeks ago, but that debut was specific to China. The company has now announced the global launch of its most powerful Intel-based mini PC. The EVO-T2 series mini PC offers the latest Panther Lake chips, aka Core Ultra Series 3 processors, for leading AI and gaming performance without a discrete GPU for mobile devices in the mainstream segment.
EVO-T2 will either boast the Core Ultra X7 358H or the Core Ultra X9 388H processor, offering up to 180 AI TOPS of power through the CPU+NPU+GPU combo. Both chips offer the same 16-core/16-thread configuration through a 4 P-core + 8 E-core + 4 LP-E-core combination, enabling high-performance computing at a low power. The EVO-T2 will offer 64 GB of LPPDDR5X memory running at an incredible 8533 MT/s speed.
- Global sale starts: March 30, 8 am PST, 2026
- Limited first batch: Only 50 units available
- Early subscriber offer: $60 /£60 OFF
- Pricing: 64+1TB: $1,899-$60=$1,839, £1,479-£60 =£1,419
The machine brings 1 TB SSD out of the box, but the storage can be expanded up to 16 TB using dual NVMe slots (1x PCIe 5.0 + 1x PCIe 4.0. No other memory-storage configuration has been announced by the company, which means the default RAM and storage configuration will be 64 GB + 1 TB for now. The price for the system starts at $1,899, but it's likely for the configuration with the Core Ultra X7 358H. The X9 388H configuration could cost more, but it remains a speculation.
GMKtec has announced that the mini PC will officially see the retail launch on 30th March, but early subscribers can receive a $60 discount. This brings the price to $1,839 , but keep in mind that the first batch will only include 50 units, which means the EVO-T2 is likely to go out of stock quickly. GMKtec hasn't announced the availability of the second batch, but we will keep you updated.
