The Asus ROG NUC has a new rival in town. Equipped with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU and a 24-core Intel processor, the Minisforum AtomMan G7 Pro can be purchased for significantly less than its Asus counterpart, too.

Minisforum has now released the AtomMan G7 Pro globally. Previewed last September during IFA 2025 in Berlin, the AtomMan G7 Pro rivals other gaming-oriented mini-PCs like the Asus ROG NUC 2025 (curr. $2,349 on Amazon). For reference, the G7 Pro is one of many AtomMan G7 mini-PCs that Minisforum has launched too, with the G7 PT, G7 Ti and G7 Ti SE all debuting during 2024.

Currently, Minisforum offers the AtomMan G7 Pro in two configurations. However, both feature the same Core i9-14900HX CPU from Intel's Raptor Lake-HX Refresh generation. A 24-core and 32-thread CPU, the Core i9-14900HX falls only slightly behind the newer Core Ultra 9 275HX in many benchmarks despite being a 10 nm processor.

Additionally, the AtomMan G7 Pro can only be configured with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU, all of which Minisforum keeps cool with six heat pipes, dual fans and a three-sided exhaust system. Apparently, this cooling system allows the AtomMan G7 Pro to pull up to 200 W during stress tests with Game Mode activated. Otherwise, the mini-PC will draw up to 150 W in 'Office Mode'.

The AtomMan G7 Pro is not shy of ports either, as the image above shows. Minisforum has priced its latest mini-PC at $1,359.90 as a barebones unit for those who wish to bring their own RAM and storage, of which the AtomMan G7 Pro supports up to 96 GB DDR5-5200 and 8 TB split across two M.2 2280 slots. Alternatively, Minisforum also sells a preconfigured unit with 32 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage for $1,679.90.
