This is a faster version of the same … Read more
6 RTX Spark Mini PCs Compared Before They Ship
An RTX Spark mini PC should be the easiest way to put 128GB of CUDA-friendly unified memory on a desk.

Would you keep the EV2401S on your desk for seven years if the screen were still only 1080p?

XG32UQDS is not enough of an upgrade to make the shipping XG32UCDS obsolete. ASUS raises the refresh rate from 165 Hz to 180 Hz and adds its new BlackShield film, but the published specification sheet also cuts peak HDR brightness and drops USB-C.

Minisforum AtomMan G1 Pro-89A6: Smart Spec, Risky Buy
Minisforum AtomMan G1 Pro-89A6 costs just US$40 more than the shipping RTX 5060 version and doubles dedicated graphics memory from 8GB to 16GB. That is the entire pitch. The difficult part is deciding whether more VRAM is worth buying before anyone has measured what a 140W Radeon RX 9060 XT does inside this 3.8-litre chassis. … Read more
ProArt GR1X: Buy or Wait for the CUDA Mini PC?
ProArt GR1X earns a place on my shortlist because ASUS promises native CUDA in a small Windows desktop with up to 128GB of unified memory.
