Cooler Master enters the Mini-PC market with Core Ultra 100 based “Mini-X” with Vapor Chamber

The cooling company launches its first Mini-PC.

Interest in ultra-compact systems has skyrocketed with the arrival of powerful mobile chips. Companies not typically known for such products have finally found their niche, offering either crazy features like colorful screens, modular designs, powerful graphics, or sophisticated cooling designs.

Cooler Master has found its niche by offering a Mini-PC with an innovative cooler. Their Mini-X system is powered by Intel Core Ultra 5 125H or Core Ultra 7 155H Meteor Lake CPUs. It will be offered with up to 64GB of DDR5-5600 memory.

The PC is equipped with a custom vapor chamber design and will allow the CPU to operate within a 28W to 45W TDP. It’s worth noting that only one SKU in the Core Ultra 100 series supports this TDP (and it’s neither of the mentioned ones), so Cooler Master must have implemented some custom settings here.

On the connection board, there is one 2.5Gbit Ethernet port, one USB Type-C 10G, four USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports, one Thunderbolt port (presumably 4), and two HDMIs (one 2.0 and one 2.1). Cooler Master has also equipped the “X” with a fingerprint reader.

There is currently no confirmation about system availability or pricing.
