Title: Minisforum MS-A1 is an AMD-powered high-end mini PC with up to 96 GB of memory, OCuLink support
Post by: Redaktion on June 14, 2024, 21:23:33
Minisforum recently unveiled the MS-A1 at Computex 2024, featuring up to an 8-core Ryzen 7 8700G APU, up to 96 GB of DDR5 memory and OCuLink support. Its Intel-based sibling, the MS-01, was launched in late 2023, and rocked an i9-13900H and up to 64 GB of memory, but did not feature OCuLink support. For AMD fans, the MS-A1 sure is a welcome addition to Minisforum's family of mini PCs.

A very similar device will also be sold by AsRock: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXQyTNsVxI4

One of the differences I found between them, is that Minisforum has headphone/microphone combo jack while ASRock has them separated. I also believe that the ASRock has 1-2 more USB ports.

Quote from: usacomputer on June 15, 2024, 12:42:41But the star product of this company for many computer experts is the MINISFORUM V3, with worldwide sales success, they have been able to provide an excellent product in quality/price.

Customers have been complaining that Minisforum does not deliver enough MINISFORUM V3, and yet keeps announcing new products, which makes customers even more angry. What's your response to that?

The MS-01 supports 96GB of DDR5 RAM in 2 DIMMs. The specs say it maxes out at 64GB. They are incorrect.
