The GMKtec EVO-X3 has now been formally announced in China, and it's essentially a reshaped EVO-X2 with some notable upgrades. It's powered by the same AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, and has an OCuLink port.

GMKtech released the EVO-X2 as a flagship AMD Strix Point mini PC with the Ryzen AI Max+ 395. The EVO-X3 has now been formally announced, and it's more of a slight refresh than a proper successor.

As the company has confirmed in an announcement, the EVO-X3 will be powered by the same Ryzen AI Max+ 395 APU, but at Computex 2026, GMK shared that the system will be available with the AI Max+ 495 later in 2026. The latter would bring one notable upgrade, up to 192GB unified memory support.

For reference, the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 maxes out at 128GB. Another notable upgrade that will be available on the EVO-X3 from the beginning is the OCuLink port, which was missing on the EVO-X2. This will broaden the expandability options.

The new mini PC retains the two M.2 slots, each of which can hold up to an 8TB SSD, making the total system storage support stand at 16TB. At Computex 2026, GMK has also revealed that the EVO-X3 will sport WiFi 7, and there will be USB4 ports (4-feet USB4 Silkland cable curr. $16.99 on Amazon).

There's a noteworthy change in the design. Compared to the EVO-X2, which did relatively well in our review, the EVO-X3 is slimmer but taller. Given the form factor change, there should be a different cooling setup inside the mini PC.

Other details about GMKtec EVO-X3 are under wraps, but in the announcement, GMK shared that the EVO-X3 will launch on June 22, 2026, in China. Global launch should be around the horizon as well.
