GPD is actively refreshing its range of products with AMD's newest Ryzen APUs. They have shared intentions to enhance the Win Mini, which was last updated with the AMD Ryzen 5 8640U and Ryzen 7 8840U APUs at the beginning of the year (currently priced at $1,094.99 on Amazon). For some context, GPD also launched updated versions of the Win 4 and Win Max 2 featuring AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU.
New Options for the Win Mini 2025
The upcoming Win Mini 2025 will not only include the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 but will also offer the more affordable Ryzen AI 9 365. To clarify, the Ryzen AI 9 365 does not perform as well as the 9 HX 370 in both CPU and GPU tests. Therefore, it is reasonable to anticipate that GPD will price the Ryzen AI 9 365 models of the Win Mini 2025 lower than those with the 9 HX 370. Additionally, there will be even more budget-friendly Ryzen 7 8840U options as well.
Specifications and Features
According to GPD's product information, both Zen 5 APUs will come with choices of 32 GB or 64 GB of RAM and 2 TB of storage. Interestingly, this time around, the RAM operates at 7,500 MT/s right out of the box. Previously, the Win Mini had 6,400 MT/s RAM that could be overclocked to 7,500 MT/s manually. Furthermore, GPD has included M.2 2230 SSDs in the initial two versions of the Win Mini.
For the 2025 model, however, they have switched to an M.2 2280 slot. The product page further notes that the Win Mini 2025 weighs 35 g more, is 4 mm taller, and 1 mm thicker compared to earlier versions. While there are no explanations provided for these adjustments, it appears that the Win Mini 2025 might also feature an enhanced cooling system. Unfortunately, GPD has not disclosed the price of the new Win Mini or when it will start shipping.
