This $390 Intel Core i7 mini PC is great for home offices (29% off)

Tired of clunky desktop PCs and expensive laptops? Wish you could upgrade your computer without spending a ton of cash or having to sacrifice performance? Your wish can be granted… with a mini PC! The GMKtec M2 Pro S mini PC is Intel-powered with sufficient RAM to handle all your home office tasks, plus a little more. It’s now on sale for $389.99 on Amazon (29% off its original $549.99 price)!

That’s a great price for a device with a solid configuration. Inside, you get an Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor and 16GB of DDR4 RAM, which is the minimum we’d recommend for a Windows 11 machine these days. That should be enough to handle common daily tasks without slowing to a crawl. The 512GB SSD on board offers adequate capacity, plus fast startups, app launches, and file transfers.

Despite its size, the GMKtec M2 Pro S is a capable workstation for multitasking productivity. The mini PC supports triple 4K displays via dual HDMI ports and a USB4 video port. You also get four fast USB-A ports (two in front, two in back) plus Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2 for connectivity. The only thing it can’t do well is gaming, but the Intel Iris Xe G7 96EU integrated GPU should handle simple games okay.

This is a stunning deal in the face of the current RAM shortage, so you’d be smart to take advantage of it. It may not be the lowest price it’s ever been, but I don’t expect we’ll return to those prices anytime soon.
