Khadas Mind Pro Intel Panther Lake mini PC tested: Core Ultra X7 358H manages solid gaming performance inside portable chassis
Khadas unveiled the world’s first Intel Panther Lake-powered mini PC at CES 2026. Called the Khadas Mind Pro, the mini PC packs a Core Ultra X7 358H APU with a 65 W TDP, up to 64 GB of RAM, and up to 4 TB of storage. ETA Prime has now tested the Khadas Mind Pro mini PC with synthetic benchmarks and AAA games, and the results are pretty awesome.
Starting with the Geekbench and Cinebench performance, the Core Ultra X7 358H earned:
- 2,862 in Geekbench and 124 in Cinebench single-core tests
- 16,461 in Geekbench and 1,205 in Cinebench multi-core tests
These single-core and multi-core results are in line with our testing of the Core Ultra X7 358. This puts the performance of the Core Ultra X7 358H inside the Khadas Mind Pro mini PC at the same level as the flagship Core Ultra X9 388H.
Moving on to the GPU, the Arc B390 iGPU of the Core Ultra X7 358H managed a 3DMark Time Spy score of 7,564, with a 6,984 GPU score. This 3DMark GPU score roughly matches the fastest Arc B390 sample in our database, meaning that the 12 Xe-core iGPU is running optimally inside the Khadas Mind Pro.
As we’ve come to expect from the Arc B390, the Khadas Mind Pro once again demonstrates the gaming prowess of the X-series Intel Panther Lake APUs. In ETA Prime’s testing, the Mind Pro mini PC plays:
- Read Dead Redemption 2 at 90 FPS at 1080p/high settings
- Cyberpunk 2077 at over 60 FPS at 1080p/high settings/XeSS Quality
- Japanese Drift Master at over 70 FPS at 1080p/high settings/XeSS Quality
- Spider-Man 2 at over 60 FPS at 1080p/high settings/Xess Quality
The Arc B390 also benefits from XeSS 3 Multi-Frame Generation. ETA Prime reports that, with 4x MFG enabled, the Core Ultra X7 358H can play Black Myth Wukong at over 120 FPS at 1080p with high graphics. Cyberpunk 2077 can also be pushed above 100 FPS with XeSS 3 MFG. A good thing about XeSS 3 MFG is that Intel’s latency-reducing XeLL works great. So, you can use 4x MFG in supported games without worrying about latency.
Finally, the Khadas Mind Pro Intel Panther Lake mini PC can also be combined with the Khadas Mind Graphics 2 Dock. The eGPU dock features a desktop RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and connects to the Mind Pro through the proprietary Mind Link PCIe Gen 5 connector. This transforms the Mind Pro from a mini PC featuring a mobile APU to a full-blown workstation that you can use for gaming, content creation, and AI.
Khadas is currently accepting pre-orders for the Mind Pro mini PC and the Mind Graphics 2 Dock.
