The computer managed to achieve good and stable transfer rates in a real-life test with our reference router (Asus ROG Rapture GT-AXE11000). Right off the bat, you can see a large increase in performance over the previous generation AMD Mini PC offerings and even the competing solutions from Intel. Due to its compact dimensions, the Minisforum Venus Series UM690 doesn't take up much space on a desk. The CPU cores utilize the brand new Zen 3+ architecture that offers insane amounts of efficiency for the 6nm node they are based upon.

The barebones version does not include RAM and SSD; therefore, it does not have pre-installed Windows 11 Pro. In contrast, the SoC reached up to 76°C (169°F) under load during our testing, which is still far from the safe temperature limits for the laptop components inside.

Mit diesen bahnbrechenden Verbesserungen bietet AMD Ryzen™ 9 6900HX eine Leistung, die Ihre Vorstellungskraft übersteigt.

Power draw is actually quite a bit below the HM90, considering the TDP is slightly higher in each test but power consumption can be quite a bit lower. I originally planned to test the UM690 at 54W (for some reason the 65W setting in BIOS would revert to 30W immediately) however the system was already hitting the limit of the power brick at the default 40W, so 54W didn’t see much improvement in the few tests I measured.

I’m assuming a UM680 powered by a 6800U or 6800H will be offered at some point in the near future that would match those features, and if that is the case it’d be my recommended choice from the Minisforum lineup.

The barebones version does not include RAM and SSD; therefore, it does not have pre-installed Windows 11 Home. The company has no influence on this review and didn't receive any version of it before publication.The chassis is the same as the UM480, but unlike that budget system they’ve picked a more power hungry 6900HX processor rather than a 6800U. Gen 2 (10gbps), a pair of HMDI ports capable of 4k 60hz continues unchanged along with a single RJ45 2. However, the review unit was unable to hold its own against the other devices that we tested with the same eGPU setup. Minisforum has been around since 2012 and has offered some really innovative designs, mostly in the Mini PC segment.

This is awesome but when are we getting a 6900HS-only thin-n'-light laptop for mixed productivity and light 1080p gaming? Minisforum UM480XT is equipped with an AMD Ryzen™ 7 4800H integrated graphics card, DDR4 dual-channel memory, 512 GB PCIe 4. The Mac went from 80GB of software, on the PCIe4, to 32GB of software, it shows how much code bloatware you can get, by accumulation. Using a Razer Core X and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, we examined what kind of performance we can expect from an eGPU setup.

Minisforum recently introduced the UM690 in its Venus lineup, packing AMD's flagship Rembrandt Ryzen 6000 APU, the Ryzen 9 6900HX. Software-wise, the Mini PC will come loaded with Windows 11 which is configured on all pre-config units except the barebone version since it doesn't house any storage device. Featuring an AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX, the Minisforum Venus Series UM690 offers superb performance without consuming too much power.
