Minisforum MS-A2 review: Compact AMD mini PC with workstation ambitions and GPU upgrade option

Desktop-level performance in a compact form factor

The Minisforum MS-A2 is a small-form-factor mini PC equipped with the AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX, delivering strong performance for demanding workloads such as video editing, 3D rendering, and multitasking. It supports multiple SSDs and includes a full PCIe x16 slot for adding dedicated graphics cards, making it suitable for users who need a compact yet upgradeable workstation.

Verdict – Compact workstation potential with some limitations

The Minisforum MS-A2 provides strong overall system performance with the AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX, but its weakest area is 3D performance, which limits its suitability for graphics-intensive tasks without additional hardware. It stands out with versatile connectivity options and the ability to install a dedicated low-profile GPU, though Minisforum does not supply pre-configured versions that include a graphics card.

The noise level is a notable drawback, as the powerful processor quickly pushes the cooling system to its limits. While the case stays cool, the SoC must be throttled during prolonged heavy loads. Overall, the Minisforum MS-A2 stands out for its strong performance, flexible configuration options, and compact design, making it suitable for users who need high computing power in a small footprint and are willing to accept thermal trade-offs. However, it cannot be recommended as a full-fledged mini workstation in its standard configuration and only achieves that role when paired with dedicated graphics power.

Pros

+ sturdy housing
+ can be opened without tools
+ AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX (16 cores, 32 threads)
+ fast WLAN
+ Dual 2.5G LAN
+ 2x 10G SFP+(Intel X710)
+ up to 4 SSDs can be installed
+ physical PCIe x16 interface

Cons

- nervous fan control
- Fan present throughout
- very low 3D performance
- Cooling unit quickly works at its limit
- only a fully-fledged workstation with a dedicated GPU
- no USB4 or Thunderbolt
- SSD performance unstable under load

Case & equipment

The Minisforum MS-A2 shares a similar design with the MS-01 and MS-A1, evoking the look of industrial PCs like Lenovo’s ThinkCentre series. Its metal case with a plastic front panel feels sturdy and well-built. Weighing 1.5kg (plus a 788g power supply), it is heavier and larger than typical mini PCs, taking up more desk space.

Connectivity is extensive, featuring seven USB ports, including two USB-C, along with an HDMI port. The system also includes enhanced networking capabilities, supporting its role as a compact workstation. A notable feature is the PCIe x16 slot, connected via PCIe 4.0 x8 with support for lane splitting.

Test conditions

Testing was performed on the Minisforum MS-A2 in its factory configuration, using the pre-installed Windows operating system along with current drivers and BIOS. All settings remained at their default values to provide a realistic assessment of performance under standard conditions. The UEFI offers options to adjust SoC performance, but out of the box, the SoC operates at its full power limit of up to 100 watts.

Cinebench R15 Multi endurance test

The Cinebench R15 continuous loop highlights the thermal and power limitations of the Minisforum MS-A2. The AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX cannot sustain peak performance over extended periods, as reflected in the benchmark results. Under stress testing, the SoC’s power consumption gradually drops to around 75 watts, leading to reduced performance during prolonged heavy workloads.

System performance

The Minisforum MS-A2 generally delivers strong overall system performance, but in certain individual benchmarks it falls behind competing devices, primarily due to the limited capability of its integrated GPU. Additionally, the AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX lacks a dedicated NPU, which restricts AI-related performance. Using a separate GPU can mitigate these shortcomings and significantly enhance its capabilities in graphics and AI workloads.

DPC latencies

The Minisforum MS-A2 exhibits minor weaknesses in DPC latency, with the highest readings already appearing during simple web browsing with the Edge browser. However, 4K video playback and stress testing do not cause the DPC values to rise any further.

Mass storage

1 TB SSD from Kingston
1 TB SSD from Kingston

The Minisforum MS-A2 exclusively supports NVMe SSDs, including drives in the extended 22110 format. In testing, the included 1TB Kingston SSD delivers solid performance, though speeds decrease during sustained workloads. When no dedicated GPU is installed, the system can accommodate up to four storage devices, offering considerable expansion potential for its size.

Graphics card and gaming performance

The AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX in the Minisforum MS-A2 includes only the basic Radeon 610M iGPU, which delivers minimal graphics capability and is largely limited to image output. It is unsuitable for 3D applications or demanding graphical workloads. To address this limitation, users can install a low-profile dedicated GPU or connect an external graphics solution via OCuLink.

Minisforum MS-A2 performance check with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090

The Minisforum MS-A2 supports external graphics cards, including through Minisforum’s own DEG1 eGPU dock using an OCuLink connection. OCuLink provides greater bandwidth than USB4, enabling slightly improved 3D performance. When paired with a GeForce RTX 4090, the MS-A2 performs far closer to the level expected of a workstation, making it far more capable for demanding professional tasks.

Emissions

Noise emissions

With the Minisforum MS-A2, the compact cooling fan operates at high speeds under load to keep the powerful processor in check, making the device clearly audible. Even when idle, it is louder than many comparable systems at 41dB(A). Under full load, it reaches 48.4dB(A), only slightly quieter than the Minisforum MS-01, which may be distracting in quieter environments.

Energy management

The Minisforum MS-A2 is not a power-efficient mini PC, as its energy consumption remains above average even when idle. However, paired with its high-performance processor, it still delivers good overall efficiency. Power draw peaks at almost 150W, well within the capacity of the included 240-watt power supply, which also provides sufficient headroom for adding a dedicated graphics card and additional storage devices.

Notebookcheck overall rating

The Minisforum MS-A2 stands out with strong CPU performance, versatile connectivity, and sturdy build quality. Its primary shortcomings lie in the limited integrated graphics and a cooling system that struggles under heavy loads. Despite these drawbacks, it remains a capable and compact workstation solution for demanding tasks, particularly when paired with a dedicated graphics card.
