Why this score

The score adds up these parts. Each part has a weight. A part counts as the average of its sources, pulled toward 80 when there are few sources.

  1. AI power

    50% weightcounts as 78.1

    Average of 2 sources: 77.1

  2. Experts

    30% weightcounts as 80.5

    Average of 1 source: 81.0

  3. Users

    20% weightcounts as 80.0

    No sources found yet. No data yet. This part counts as 80.

Thin: only 1 review or buyer rating, so it is pulled toward the average.

80 is the field average. A part counts as 80 + (average − 80) × N ÷ (N + 1), where N is its number of sources. One source counts half of the gap from 80. No sources count as 80.

GPU memory
48 GBNo AMD Variable Graphics Memory on this chip (AMD introduced it with the Ryzen AI 300 series). Windows' documented limit for system memory used by graphics (Microsoft, 'Calculating Graphics Memory') is MIN(80% of RAM, MAX(RAM - 16 GB, 50% of RAM)) = 48 GB on 64 GB of RAM. The BIOS UMA frame buffer on this box tops out at 16 GB (LinuxLinks review of the UM890 Pro: options up to 16 GB); the larger of the two figures is used. Linux GTT tuning is not documented for this iGPU.

Notes

Quiet, 1 litre box with two 2.5 GbE ports, two USB4 and OCuLink; the Radeon 780M only gets about 90 GB/s from dual-channel DDR5-5600, so it suits small and mid-size models rather than big dense ones. The BIOS caps dedicated GPU memory at 16 GB, and bigger shares need Linux kernel tuning.

Notebookcheck's power and noise were measured on a 32 GB / 1 TB unit in balanced mode (performance mode raises TDP to 70 W and the noise). ServeTheHome measured 7-9 W idle, 80-90 W load, 36-38 dBA idle and 40-42 dBA load (34 dBA floor). A promptquorum.com page gives a 67 mm height and EUR 649 / 799 / 1,099 prices, but it says its LLM figures are 'estimated from specs, not measured', so none of it is used. Geizhals shows the cheapest AT offer at EUR 1,199, which is EUR 150 above the maker's EU shop. Memory speed source: DDR5-5600 dual channel (Minisforum EU page: up to 5600 MHz, 2 SO-DIMM slots) x 128 bit = 89.6 GB/s.
