GMKTec pairs the fastest laptop CPU ever launched with a desktop RTX5070 GPU in an impressive Neo-X1 workstation PC

GMKTec combines AMD's fastest mobile processor with desktop RTX 5070 graphics hardware
Compact 14.6L desktop packs liquid cooling and sustained 160W processor performance capability
GMKTec Neo-X1 Pro pairs Ryzen 9 9955HX3D with GeForce RTX 5070 graphics

GMKTec has introduced the NEO-X1 series, a compact MoDT gaming desktop that squeezes serious desktop-class hardware into a 14.6-liter chassis.

The company pairs an AMD Ryzen 9000HX series mobile processor with a full desktop-class NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series graphics card.

With this configuration, this device is somewhere between a traditional laptop and a full-sized desktop tower system.

Chassis and power delivery for sustained performance

The chassis integrates a built-in liquid cooling loop alongside an 850-watt fully modular power supply with an 80 Plus Gold rating.

Built-in liquid cooling becomes especially relevant given the processor's ability to sustain such elevated power draw continuously inside a relatively compact 14.6-liter enclosure.

Its motherboard uses a 13-phase...
