Minisforum Starts Selling AtomMan G7 Pro Slimline PC, Crams in GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop dGPU

Minisforum's US webstore has listed the new AtomMan G7 Pro model—starting at a special launch price, $1359.90, for the barebones package. By tacking on an extra $320, prospective buyers can order a configuration that is pre-fitted with 32 GB RAM of system memory, and 1 TB SSD of internal storage. TechPowerUp inspected a demonstration unit at the recently concluded CES trade event. Sat nearby was the AMD Ryzen APU-powered AtomMan G1 Pro SKU. Minisforum's Las Vegas booth was definitely very "Panther Lake-H" heavy, but the Chinese compact PC specialist continues to release systems based on older Intel chip designs. Akin to its "Ti" relative , the much newer AtomMan G7 Pro gaming model dips back into the "Raptor Lake-HX Refresh" generation. Team Blue's flagship 14th Gen Core i9-14900HX mobile processor remains in place, but the Minisforum engineering team has moved on from deploying NVIDIA's past-gen "Ada Lovelace" GPU family within this product tier.

The latest AtomMan entrant features a discrete GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop 8 GB graphics card. The AtomMan G7 range's "ultraslim" profiles likely cannot fully accommodate desktop-grade hardware. Recently, Zotac engineers managed to cram a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB custom card into their highly-compact ZBOX MAGNUS EN275060TC pre-built desktop system. The AtomMan G7 Pro compact tower can be switched between gaming and office modes, via a physical button present on the outer chassis. Entertainment and productivity modes have been stressed test, according to the manufacturer's promotional material. They claim that a maximum 200 W-rated profile (comprised of max. 85 W CPU and 115 W GPU ratings) delivers flagship-grade gaming performance, without any compromises. The North American Minisforum webshop anticipates first AtomMan G7 Pro shipments going out on January 23.
