AMD Ryzen – MINISFORUM EliteMini HX90 is a tiny Windows 11-ready PC with an AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX

MINISFORUM is a computer manufacturer that has been gaining a lot of fans lately. Its PCs are looked upon favorably by many consumers that like the diminutive desktop form factor. Not only are its computers well-made and small, but often quite powerful too. These machines can be good servers, retro-gaming machines, office workstations, home theater PCs, and more.

Many MINISFORUM computers are powered by capable Intel processors, but understandably, AMD fans want to get in on the small desktop action too. I am happy to say MINISFORUM does cater to those that prefer AMD. In fact, the company does have several AMD-powered options. Today, MINISFORUM launches its latest desktop, and it is powered by the impressive Ryzen 9 5900HX APU. And yes, the company says it will be Windows 11 compatible.

Called “EliteMini HX90,” it does not have Thunderbolt 4 like the EliteMini TL50, but it does have a regular USB-C port. TheRyzen 9 5900HX APU which powers the diminutive PC is an octa-core APU with integrated Radeon graphics. It even supports DDR4 3200MHz, which can make a big difference if you want to squeeze the most performance out of the integrated GPU.
