Mini PC Desktop Intel Arc Meteor Lake GPU

The manufacturer itself advertises the Minisforum UH125 Pro as a powerful AI mini-PC with OCuLink connection. The processor is an Intel Core Ultra 5 125H, which can definitely offer a certain added value with its separate NPU. However, we can now also find this option in other SoCs. Minisforum does not offer other CPU configurations for the UH125 Pro. When purchasing the Minisforum UH125 Pro, the buyer is faced with the decision between the barebone variant and our test configuration. Without RAM and SSD, the device can be pre-ordered for 499 euros. The regular price, however, is 629 euros. If you want to purchase the Minisforum UH125 Pro with 32 GB DDR5 RAM and a 1 TB SSD, you will have to dig deeper into your pockets: The RRP is currently 879 euros. However, Minisforum is offering the device for 699 euros during the pre-order phase.

In terms of price, the Minisforum UH125 Pro stands out neither positively nor negatively. The competitors against whom we pitted the Minisforum UH125 Pro are listed in the following table.

Case - Aluminum and plastic in a good combination

The Minisforum UH125 Pro is sold exclusively in black color. The manufacturer relies on a mix of aluminum and plastic for the materials used. The latter can be found on the top and bottom, although the main part of the case is made of metal. This gives the device excellent stability, which is also accompanied by impeccable workmanship. The power button and the Copilot button are located on the top. The latter is simply a button to start the Copilot assistant. However, it is questionable whether this feature will be used often in practice.

The Minisforum UH125 Pro takes up slightly more space on the desk than its competitors. In terms of height, our test device ranks in the midfield, although the 49 millimeters do not make the device appear bulky. In relation to the 14.5 centimeters in width and depth, the Minisforum UH125 Pro has enough internal space to accommodate a powerful and efficient cooling unit. The Minisforum UH125 Pro can also be attached to a monitor via a VESA mount.

Size comparison

Equipment - USB4 in double version and OCuLink

The Minisforum UH125 Pro scores with a good selection of interfaces. Both the number and the choice of ports are excellent. Two USB4 interfaces are not necessarily the standard for mini-PCs. However, Minisforum proves that this is possible. The manufacturer also installs an OCuLink port, which is primarily used for external graphics cards. Minisforum itself has already announced its own model. The position of the ports is good, but not perfect. The DisplayPort connection stands out negatively here. If the underlying USB-A is in use, it is practically impossible to remove the DisplayPort cable as it is often fitted with a catch. Screens can also be controlled via HDMI. If you also use the two USB4 ports for image output, you can operate up to four screens simultaneously on the Minisforum UH125 Pro.

The Minisforum UH125 Pro is equipped with an SD card reader, which is only recommended to a limited extent in terms of performance. Devices with faster UHS-II card readers deliver significantly better transfer rates. The SD card reader in our test device is therefore more of an emergency solution.

Important note on the OCuLink connection: The manufacturer points out that this interface doesn't support hot swap, which means that the mini-PC must be switched off before connecting the device. In the worst-case scenario, ignoring this feature can result in damage to the devices. Aoostar has also explicitly pointed this out with a similar note on its devices.

Communication

The Minisforum UH125 Pro is equipped with an Intel Wi-Fi 6E-AX210 radio module, which ensures wireless network communication. The WLAN module can operate in 2.4 GHz as well as in 5 GHz and 6 GHz frequency ranges. The test shows clear differences in performance, which are certainly noticeable in certain application scenarios. If a lot of data is transmitted, we primarily recommend using the faster 6 GHz radio network. Nevertheless, the somewhat slower 5 GHz wireless network is perfectly adequate for normal everyday use. In comparison, the Minisforum UH125 Pro is among the front runners. We carried out the WLAN tests with the Asus ROG Rapture GT-AXE11000 router. As an alternative to the wireless connection, the Minisforum UH125 Pro has two LAN sockets. Both network connections can transfer data at up to 5 GBit/s. This makes our test sample stand out from the crowd.

Maintenance

If you order the Minisforum UH125 Pro as a barebone version, you will inevitably have to open the device to install the RAM and an SSD. In principle, this works relatively well, although the glued-on rubber feet on the underside are a bit of a hindrance. They conceal the four screws that hold the underside to the housing. However, care should be taken when opening the case, as the two lower USB ports are connected internally with a relatively short ribbon cable. In order to access the RAM and an SSD, the fan must then be removed. Twelve screws have to be unscrewed for this. Internally, the Minisforum UH125 Pro is similar to the Minisforum AtomMan X7 Ti. The two M.2 interfaces are concealed under a solid metal cooler. One of these is already occupied by an 80-millimeter-long SSD in our test device. Two SO-DIMM modules can be installed for the RAM. The WLAN module can also be replaced. However, this is much more complicated, as the entire circuit board has to be dismantled.

Sustainability

The Minisforum UH125 Pro is supplied in a cardboard box appropriate to the size of the device. The accessories are packed in separate plastic bags, which could be improved in terms of sustainability. As already mentioned, the device itself is made from a mix of aluminum and plastic. We do not know whether special processes were used for the production of recycled materials.

Performance - Intel Core Ultra 5 with good performance

The Intel Core Ultra 5 125H is a solid mid-range SoC and belongs to Intel's Meteor Lake series. Overall, the SoC offers many native computing cores, which are ideally suited for multi-threaded applications. The iGPU has also been revised with the Meteor Lake series and, based on the Arc architecture, there is noticeably more performance compared to the outdated Xe iGPUs of the previous series.

Test conditions

We carried out all performance tests with the Balanced energy mode. We did not change the performance of the SoC and left it in its default state according to the BIOS settings (Balanced). As an alternative to the Balanced, the SoC can also be operated in Silent and Performance mode. The same applies to the fan curve, which we have not changed any further. We will take a closer look at the different noise levels with regard to the various fan profiles later in the test.

	Power Limit 1	Power Limit 2
Silent Mode	45 W	54 W
Balanced Mode	54 W	60 W
Performance Mode	65 W	65 W

Processor

The Minisforum UH125 Pro is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 125H. The SoC combines 6 P and 8 E cores and can process a total of 18 threads in parallel. Basically, the processor delivers solid performance, and occasionally the mid-range SoC can even compete with the Core i9 models. In the overall performance comparison, our test device has to settle for last place in terms of CPU performance. However, one should not be too deceived by this result, as Minisforum does not use the top model of the Meteor Lake series here. The gap to the Geekom AE7 is comparatively small with only 13 percentage points in the performance rating.

NPU performance

The Intel Core Ultra 5 125H contains a Neural Processing Unit, which should significantly reduce the load on the SoC when it comes to AI applications. We evaluate the performance using the UL Procyon AI Interface benchmark program. Compared to its competitors, the Minisforum UH125 Pro delivers slightly better AI performance. The difference in performance compared to the Minisforum AtomMan X7 Ti. We already repeated the benchmark several times in the latter test, but this did not result in any change.

DPC latencies

In our DPC latency measurements, the Minisforum UH125 Pro also only ranks in the midfield. We already document slightly increased latencies when surfing the Internet. The playback of our 4K test video causes the latencies to increase slightly again. However, we did not record any dropped frames, which is excellent.

Mass storage

If the Minisforum UH125 Pro is not purchased as a barebone device, there is a 1 TB SSD in the device. In our case, it is a model from Kingston. In terms of performance, we would have expected a little more from the installed model. Unfortunately, it is only good enough for a place in the lower midfield compared to its competitors. The SSD operates at PCIe 4.0 x4 speed, which is exactly what the M.2 interface can deliver at best. We have already mentioned the large SSD cooler in the maintenance section. This can cool the SSD well under load so that no performance losses are to be expected in longer load scenarios. In addition to the already installed M.2 2280 SSD, another SSD can be installed in the Minisforum UH125 Pro. However, it is important to ensure that the SSD is 30 millimeters long. Both SSDs are covered by the cooler, and the thermal pad already applied is large enough to cover both SSDs.

Graphics card - Intel Arc 7-Core iGPU

Thanks to the Intel Arc architecture, the iGPU of the Minisforum UH125 Pro offers noticeably more performance than an Intel Iris Xe G7 with 96 EUs. However, the Intel Arc 7-Core iGPU bites its teeth out at the outstanding performance of the AMD Radeon 780M. Only the top model, the Intel Arc 8-Core iGPU, can close the gap somewhat. The Intel iGPU copes perfectly with Affinity Photo 2. We have already observed this in several of our test devices based on the new Intel iGPUs.

Further comparisons and benchmarks can be found in our GPU comparison table.

Gaming performance

Games can only be enjoyed to a limited extent with the Minisforum UH125 Pro. Although the performance of the iGPU is now significantly better than with the Intel Iris Xe G7 iGPUs, you have to accept some significant compromises. However, the Intel Arc-7 iGPU masters some games: even the new F1 24 delivers surprisingly good frame rates, which allow a smooth gaming experience. However, we cannot make a blanket statement on gaming suitability at this point. To classify the performance of the Intel Arc-7 iGPU more precisely, we refer you to our GPU game list.

Minisforum UH125 Pro paired with Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti

The Minisforum UH125 Pro can be used with external graphics cards without any problems. The 3D accelerators can be connected to the device either via USB4 or OCuLink. Without influencing the overall rating, we carried out some tests with the Razer Core X and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. Basically, the 3D performance can be noticeably increased with this combination. The Minisforum UH125 Pro has to take a back seat to its competitors, which we also tested with the same external GPU solution. The slightly lower single-core performance of the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H compared to the comparison devices is very evident in low resolutions. Nevertheless, the Minisforum UH125 Pro can handle the most modern games in this configuration without having to sacrifice too much detail.

Emissions - No optimal fan curve

Noise emissions

The noise emissions of the Minisforum UH125 Pro are inconspicuous when idling. Nevertheless, we document a sound pressure level of 35 dB(A). We have seen better results with other Minisforum devices. Under load, the volume increases, and at the peak, we record a clearly audible 43.9 dB(A). These values are the result of the preset fan profile (Balanced) in the UEFI and are also included in the overall rating, as this is the default setting. We also carried out the same measurements with the Silent and Performance fan profiles. The differences in terms of volume are clearly measurable and audible. If you want to buy the Minisforum UH125 Pro, we recommend activating the Silent profile in the UEFI. The volume decreases in all scenarios, although the CPU performance is not affected.

Power consumption

The Minisforum UH125 Pro surprises with high idle power consumption values: 11.9 to 15.4 watts are more than most of the other Mini-PCs we have compared here. Under load, the tide turns in favor of the Minisforum UH125 Pro. Our measuring device only shows 48.3 watts under average load. The maximum we see is just under 90 watts, which is a significantly better result compared to the competitors. In the efficiency overview, however, our test device does not manage to outperform the Geekom AE7 and the lead over the Geekom GT13 Pro is only wafer-thin.

We are already familiar with the 120-watt power supply unit, which is included with many Minisforum mini-PCs. We never had any problems with the power supply in any of our tests. If you want to run the SoC in performance mode with 65 watts permanently, you still have enough reserves.

The Minisforum UH125 Pro in test: provided by Minisforum

The Minisforum UH125 Pro is a mini-PC equipped with Intel's latest Meteor Lake processor. Until now, the Minisforum UH125 Pro has only been available with the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H, which is ideally suited for most tasks. The Minisforum UH125 Pro scores points with stable performance, which is not affected by excessively high temperatures in relation to the cooling unit installed.

In terms of design, Minisforum does not draw from the portfolio we have already seen and equips its UH125 Pro with a new case. In terms of dimensions, the Mini-PC is slightly larger than other Mini-PCs. Nevertheless, the device does not appear bulky and the size benefits the cooling unit, which we definitely approve of. Speaking of cooling, this brings us to the biggest criticism of the Minisforum UH125 Pro: The preset fan profile is not optimally set. However, it would offer enough leeway to reduce the fan speed. In quiet mode, the device is noticeably quieter without any loss of performance. The choice of external interfaces is outstanding. In addition to two USB4 ports, there is also an OCuLink port, and there are two 5G interfaces for the network connection. This sets the Minisforum UH125 Pro apart from the masses, which usually only have two 2.5G network connections.

The Minisforum UH125 Pro has what it takes to be a really good mini-PC. The connectivity is perfect, and with an adapted fan curve, the mini-PC remains quiet even under load.

The performance of the Minisforum UH125 Pro is consistently good, but not outstanding. With the UH125 Pro, Minisforum has created a good mini-PC for a variety of purposes, which could be used for home office use or as a multimedia device in the living room. In terms of price, you have to be a little more critical, because if we take the RRP of 879 euros for the device in our test configuration as a basis, then we cannot give a purchase recommendation here. The current pre-order price of 699 euros is also a lot of money. A Minisforum UM790 Pro costs only 649 euros and can beat the Minisforum UH125 Pro in almost all respects.

Note: We have recently updated our rating system and the results of version 8 are not comparable with the results of version 7. Further information can be found here.

Price and availability

The Minisforum UH125 Pro can now be pre-ordered directly from the manufacturer's store. Alternatively, users can purchase the device via online stores such as Amazon.

I was already interested in technology from an early age, and I was able to study for my dream job as an IT Systems Electronics Engineer. Subsequently, I started 12 years of military service, during which I learned a lot about technology and constantly kept my knowledge up to date with the latest developments. As I like to share my knowledge, I found Notebookcheck was a very good opportunity for this. In addition, I also work a lot with water cooling and network security.
