Geekom AX8 Pro AI NUC PC review: AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS with 32 GB DDR5 RAM and 2 TB SSD in a 0.47L chassis

New paint and new SoC! Geekom took the opportunity of the recently upgraded NUC design and is now also shipping AMD SoCs in compact housing. The manufacturer is not afraid to install the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS. We took a closer look at the Geekom AX8 Pro and classified its performance based on numerous measurements and benchmarks in this review.

Mini PC Desktop AMD Ryzen (Zen) Radeon

Visually, the Geekom AX8 Pro is certainly an eye-catcher. Geekom draws on its own portfolio and installs an AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS. The AMD SoC should bring a significant increase in performance in terms of 3D performance, as Geekom has not yet used Meteor Lake processors. In the top configuration, 32 GB DDR5 RAM and a 2 TB SSD are installed. We have already seen several times in the past that Geekom does not necessarily market inexpensive devices. This is also the case with the Geekom AX8 Pro, which costs 999 euros in the best configuration. This is already an offer, as the manufacturer's RRP is 1,099 euros - a proud price that Geekom is charging for this device. At 879 euros, the Geekom AX8 Pro with AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS, 32 GB RAM, and 1 TB SSD is slightly cheaper, but still no bargain.

Geekom itself is probably its biggest competitor, as there are often attractive offers among slightly older devices that are technically on par with the Geekom AX8 Pro. The Geekom AX8 Pro also has to prove itself against devices from other manufacturers in this review.

Case - Sturdy chassis with new color top processing

The basis of the Geekom AX8 Pro is identical to the Geekom XT13 Pro which in turn shares the housing with the Geekom XT12 Pro. As an AMD counterpart, the Geekom AX8 Pro gets the chance to prove its performance with the same compact base. The devices only differ visually, as the housing of the Geekom AX8 Pro is painted blue. The silver and white components of the in-house counterparts are, as usual, of excellent quality and fit together perfectly. However, there are differences in color due to the different materials. The casing is predominantly made of metal, although the lid and underside are made of plastic. At just 548 grams, our test device is lightweight, and the Geekom is also very space-saving in terms of its footprint (11.7 x 11.2 centimeters). The Geekom AX8 Pro can be attached directly to a monitor using the VESA bracket supplied.

Size comparison

Equipment

When it comes to external interfaces, the Geekom AX8 Pro can't quite compete with its Intel counterpart aka Geekom XT13 Pro. At first glance, there are hardly any differences, but on closer inspection, it becomes apparent that the Geekom AX8 Pro only has a USB4 interface. This is not too bad, as the expansion options are still there. Thunderbolt functionality is also omitted. The Intel models (e.g. Intel NUC 13 Pro Desk Edition Kit), which was once launched as the NUC series and is now marketed by Asus, does however offer Thunderbolt support. The interface layout is identical, and the Geekom AX8 Pro also scores points in terms of numbers despite its compact design.

Communication

The Geekom AX8 Pro gets a familiar wireless module that we have already found in other Geekom mini PCs. The MediaTek Wi-Fi 6E MT7922 WLAN module can also handle the newer 6 GHz frequency range if the router offers this option. According to our test results, this is also recommended, as the transfer rates are noticeably better than with a connection in the 5 GHz frequency range. We used the Asus ROG Rapture GT-AXE11000 router for the test. Alternatively, an RJ45 socket with 2.5 Gbit/s is also available to the user.

Accessories

The Geekom AX8 Pro comes with a 120-watt power supply unit and a VESA mount including mounting material. The manufacturer does not include any other accessories such as a keyboard or mouse.

Maintenance

The Geekom AX8 Pro can be opened from the underside without any major obstacles: Only four small screws need to be loosened. The base plate also serves as a passive cooling element for the SSD. The RAM and mass storage can be replaced if necessary. However, the Geekom AX8 Pro no longer offers any upgrade options. If you want to clean the CPU fan, you have to remove the board and cooling unit. With a little dexterity, however, this is not a problem.

Sustainability

The Geekom AX8 Pro is a very compact mini PC. Nevertheless, the manufacturer packs the device with manageable accessories in a comparatively large box. The dimensions are very similar to the packaging of the Geekom XT13 Pro. The Geekom XT12 Pro, on the other hand, was delivered in much smaller packaging. The approach taken by Geekom with our test model is not in line with sensible sustainability in terms of the space required for shipping. The device itself is predominantly made of metal and plastic. However, we do not know whether the manufacturer uses specially recycled materials for its production. Geekom receives praise for the 36-month warranty period.

Performance - Plenty of power thanks to AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS

The AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS is a high-end processor and offers more than enough power for most applications. If you only have rudimentary office tasks to complete, you can also opt for a less powerful device. Alternatively, the Geekom AX8 Pro can also be equipped with the slightly weaker AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS is also available. Both SoCs are native 8-cores and offer 16 logical computing units. When it comes to RAM, 32 GB DDR5 RAM is always a good choice, although at least 1 TB is installed for mass storage.

Test conditions

We use the "Balanced" energy profile for all performance tests with the Geekom AX8 Pro. There were only deviations from this in the power consumption and noise measurements according to our Test criteria. In accordance with the manufacturer's specifications, Geekom allows the SoC to operate at the lowest power consumption. In figures, this means a power limit of 45 watts under continuous load, although up to 60 watts are allowed for short periods. The BIOS itself is very simple and allows practically no changes. Changes to the power limits of the SoC and the allocation of RAM for the iGPU are not possible. Only the fan presets can be changed. Performance mode is activated here by default.

Processor

The Geekom AX8 Pro is equipped with a AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS, which is also found in the Geekom A8. In a direct duel, however, the AX8 Pro has to admit defeat to the A8. However, with a performance difference of only two percentage points in the performance rating, we can state that both devices offer almost identical performance. In the individual tests, the Geekom AX8 Pro cannot always prevail against its competitors. The Meteor Lake-powered devices in particular (Minisforum AtomMan X7 Ti and Acemagic F2A) can clearly set themselves apart in the multi-core tests due to the higher number of physical cores. In terms of single-core performance, however, the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS is on par with an Intel Core Ultra 9 185H.

Cinebench R15 Multi loop

The Cinebench R15 endurance loop is an extreme scenario and stresses the processor with recurring endurance tests to determine how well the cooling system works. Geekom itself specifies a TDP of 45 watts. This can only be achieved at the beginning and drops from the second run onwards. The continuous load reduces the performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS is reduced even further. Compared to the competitors, the final result is very sobering.

DPC latencies

The Geekom AX8 Pro is not convincing in terms of latency. We document similarly high values to the Geekom XT13 Pro. Even simply surfing the Internet results in high DPC values. The playback of the 4K test video and the short stress test have no negative influence on the DPC values. The utilization of the iGPU is noticeably high at over 60 percent during video playback. The iGPU of the Geekom A7 was only utilized to 30 percent in the same test. A similar result to the Geekom AX8 Pro was already delivered by the Geekom A8, which we also tested in the configuration with the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS.

Mass storage

The Geekom AX8 Pro gets an SSD with 2 TB of storage space in the top configuration. More precisely, Geekom has installed an Acer N7000 here. Physically, the mass storage is optimally connected, resulting in high transfer rates in the test. Nevertheless, the SSD in the Geekom AX8 Pro cannot deliver the performance that we achieved with the Geekom XT13 Pro. There is no noticeable difference in performance during normal use. The stress test shows excellent performance. With one small exception, we documented a stable read performance. The passive cooling unit is sufficient to dissipate the heat quickly enough. Only one mass storage device can be installed in the Geekom AX8 Pro. This distinguishes our test sample from the Intel-based Geekom XT13 Pro, which can be equipped with a total of two mass storage devices.
