GMKtec EVO-X3 is a costly local AI hardware option
The GMKtec EVO-X3 is presented as an AI mini PC built around AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 hardware. Its listed price is $3,600, which is more than double the $1,600 paid for an earlier 128GB machine.
The system supports USB4 and adds a dedicated OCuLink port. OCuLink gives a desktop a direct high-speed cable connection, which can reduce data loss and improve compared with USB4.
Cooling is also highlighted, with the goal of avoiding drops caused by heat during heavy s. There is also speculation that the machine looks ready for a future Gorgon Halo release expected in the next few months.
