GMKtec Evo-T2 mini PC with Intel Core Ultra X9 "Panther Lake" CPU and monstrous Arc B390 iGPU arriving soon

Almost every major player in the mini PC segment has announced products with Intel Panther Lake CPUs. For instance, GMKtec has revealed many interesting details of its upcoming refreshed Evo-T2 mini PC, featuring up to the Core Ultra X9 388H CPU with the powerful Arc B390 iGPU.

Now, the company has teased that the mini PC will be launched on the 12th of March. The capable mini PC was previously showcased at CES 2026, and as mentioned earlier, we already have a pretty decent idea of the system's specifications. Apart from the highest-end variant with the Core Ultra X9, configurations with the Core Ultra 5 338H, Core Ultra X7 368H will also be available.

The Core Ultra X9 388H is an extremely capable chip, and trades blows with the Apple M5 in multi-core benchmarks, The Ryzen 9 8945HS found in the Geekom A8 Max (currently $899 on Amazon) is also left behind, albeit by a small margin. Of course, the star of the show happens to be the Arc B390 iGPU, which is almost twice as fast as the Radeon 890M found in many premium mini PCs.

That said, considering just how expensive the recently leaked Asus NUC 16 Pro turned out to be, there is no doubt that the GMKtec Evo-T2 will also command a pretty penny. Other details of the Evo-T2 include up to 128 GB of RAM, 16 TB of storage, dual Ethernet, USB4, as well as OCuLink support for speedy eGPU setups.
