Beelink GTR6 Ryzen 9 6900HX mini PC review: Faster than most Intel NUCs

Flexing the Radeon 680M. The GTR6 retails for $540 USD as a barebones kit or $750 if configured with RAM, storage, and Windows 11 Pro. The performance it brings to the table is significant when compared to an Intel NUC at an equivalent price point.

Unlike the smaller Beelink SEi or SER series powered by U-series processors, the GTR series consists of models powered by faster H-series processors. The GTR6 directly succeeds the older GTR5 with both an upgraded CPU (Zen 3 Ryzen 9 5900HX to Zen 3+ Ryzen 9 6900HX) and a slight chassis redesign. Our benchmarks below will show it to be one of the fastest mini PCs in Beelink's extensive lineup.

Our unit in review is a fully configured GTR6 complete with 32 GB of RAM and 512 GB NVMe SSD for approximately $750 USD. All options come with the same Ryzen 9 6900HX CPU and integrated Radeon 680M GPU. The GTR6 competes directly with Intel NUCs powered by integrated graphics.

Case — New Soft Mesh Top

The case feels strong with its metal sides and breathable soft mesh on top for airflow. The latter in particular is a first for Beelink as previous mini PCs from the company would feature plastic or metal tops instead. The removable mesh adds an element of quality or luxuriousness to the overall design.

The GTR6 is thicker and heavier than the GTR5 and most Intel NUC models. The larger size is partly due to the more demanding AMD HX processor when compared to the Intel Core U series.

Connectivity — No Thunderbolt

Port options are excellent with four individual HDMI 2.1 ports supporting up to 8K monitors at 60 Hz. There is only one USB-C port, however, and the LAN port is only 1 Gbps whereas many NUC models now support 10 Gbps.

Thunderbolt is not supported because of the AMD CPU.

Communication — Wi-Fi 6E Standard

A MediaTek RZ608 comes standard for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. Transfer rates are steady albeit slower than most Intel AX201/210 solutions.

The RZ608 on our test unit was slow to detect our 6 GHz AXE11000 network even after updating to the latest drivers at the time of writing. You may have to wait several minutes before the system can detect and connect to your 6 GHz network.

Maintenance

The bottom panel is secured by just four Philips screws for easy servicing. However, another plate sits underneath which requires removing another four screws as shown by the pictures below.

Accessories and Warranty

The retail box includes two HDMI cables, a removable VESA mount with extra screws, user's manual, and two additional soft-touch mesh covers for the top of the unit. One of these covers is red to complement the AMD-based hardware and trim color.

Performance — Zen 3+ Upgrade

 
 

Testing Conditions

We set our unit to Performance mode via Windows prior to running any benchmarks below. Beelink includes no pre-installed applications for a clean Windows 11 Pro experience. Nonetheless, we still recommend installing the AMD Radeon software for additional settings as shown by the screenshots below.

Processor

CPU performance is unfortunately just a minor step up from the Ryzen 9 5900HX at best. Benchmarks show identical multi-thread performance to the Ryzen 9 5900HX in the Beelink GTR5 and just slightly faster single-thread performance by up to 10 percent. Average multi-thread performance is roughly 15 percent slower than on laptops sporting the same Ryzen 9 6900HX CPU such as on the Lenovo Legion S7 16. Even so, the GTR6 is still one of the fastest mini PCs for the size despite the slight performance setbacks.

DPC Latency

There are minor DPC issues when opening multiple browser tabs on our homepage. 4K video playback at 60 FPS is otherwise excellent with just 2 dropped frames during our minute-long test video. Processor utilization is very low relative to PCs powered by slower U-series CPUs.

GPU Performance — Fastest Integrated Graphics

The Radeon 680M continues to impress with results that are roughly 60 percent faster than the outgoing Radeon RX Vega 8 in the the last generation Ryzen 9 5900HX. This puts the new integrated AMD GPU well ahead of any Intel Iris Xe 96 EUs solution by 50 percent or more. Dedicated low-end GPUs like the GeForce GTX 1060 or GTX 1650 are still much faster, but the 680M is impressive nonetheless for an integrated GPU. Most titles are playable on low to low-medium settings at 1080p resolution including even Cyberpunk 2077.

Emissions

System Noise

System uses a small ~40 mm fan. A larger one would have been ideal

Fan noise is perhaps in need of most attention from the manufacturer. The GTR6 is constantly pulsing between 23 dB(A) to as high as 36 dB(A) even when there is no onscreen activity. The changes in fan noise is noticeable and distracting if simply web browsing or video streaming. Most other mini PCs have superior fan controls and RPM behavior than the GTR6.

Fan noise would stabilize in the low 40 dB(A) range when gaming which is at least comparable to many Ultrabooks and the older GTR5 under similar testing conditions. It's just too bad the fan pulses so frequently during low to low-medium loads.

Surface temperature is not an issue as it is never uncomfortably warm. However, keep in mind that cool air enters from the top and so it's not recommended to place any books or items on top of the unit. Be sure to leave ample room behind the unit as well where waste heat exits.

Stress Test

When stressed with Prime95, the CPU would boost to 3.4 GHz and 45 W for just a few seconds before stabilizing at 3.1 GHz, 38 W, and 66 C. There is definitely room for end-user overclocking as the manufacturer has seemingly set a conservative temperature ceiling when on the default settings.

GPU clock rate and temperature would stabilize at 1977 MHz and a reasonably cool 56 C, respectively, when running Witcher 3 to represent typical gaming loads.

Energy Management

Power Consumption

Overall consumption is nearly identical to what we recorded on the GTR5 despite the 60 percent increase in graphics performance. In other words, the GTR6 is able to provide significantly faster graphics performance than its predecessor under the same power envelope for much higher performance-per-watt. Power consumption is still much higher than most laptops and mini PCs powered by Intel Core U CPUs and the Iris Xe 96 EUs, however, which explains the larger physical size of the GTR6 relative to many Intel NUCs.

We're able to record a temporary maximum draw of 81 W from the medium-sized (~14.4 x 6.3 x 3 cm) 120 W AC adapter when the CPU is at 100 percent utilization.

The main advantage of choosing the Beelink GTR6 over the GTR5 is for its significantly improved integrated graphics. Otherwise, the Zen 3+ Ryzen 9 6900HX offers just marginally faster processor performance than the Zen 3 Ryzen 9 5900HX. If you plan on mostly streaming content to your mini PC with the occasional moderate multitasking, then the GTR5 has more than enough power for your purposes. If you plan on running games locally or other GPU-intensive tasks, then the GTR6 may be worth the investment.

Price is another major factor to consider. For $750 USD, the GTR6 comes complete with RAM, SSD, licensed Windows 11 Pro, and a faster CPU and integrated GPU than most Intel NUC options including even the latest 12th gen NUC Pro models. Beelink even offers a barebone SKU with no RAM or storage for just $540.

The AMD Radeon 680M GPU is the highlight of the Beelink GTR6. Performance-per-dollar is high relative to competing Intel NUCs in the same $750 price range.

Fan noise is perhaps our biggest complaint about the GTR6 as it pulses for seemingly no reason when the system is idling or running undemanding loads. Otherwise, the performance-per-dollar and feature set of the GTR6 are both very competitive.

Price and Availability

The Beelink GTR6 is now shipping in our exact configuration on Amazon for $999 USD or just $749 USD if purchased directly from the manufacturer
