The Geekom GT1 Mega Mini PC has been an impressive addition to my setup. Straight out of the box, it felt premium with its sturdy metallic build and compact design. Setup was seamless, and I appreciated the wide range of ports, including USB-C, HDMI, and Ethernet, making it highly versatile for different uses.Performance-wise, it delivers snappy multitasking, fast boot times, and smooth performance for work, media editing, and general use. While it’s not a gaming powerhouse, it can handle casual and eSports gaming well, and there’s even an option for an external GPU (eGPU) for those needing extra power.Cooling is another highlight—the fan stays quiet, and even under heavy workloads, the PC remains cool without thermal throttling. Overall, the GT1 Mega is an excellent choice for professionals, casual gamers, and those looking for a powerful, compact PC. If you don’t need a dedicated GPU, this is one of the best mini PCs available.

I am giving this PC five -stars, against my better judgement. It's five despite the W11 image being flaky from the onset of initialization. After the third attempt, followed by multiple updates, all went well. The hardware continues to amaze me. Extremely fast, plenty of configuration ports, and dual LAN that I am using for 2.5 Gb file transfer to my server, as well as data redundancy. Despite it's small size, from photo editing to other intensive gaming and illustration demands, this PC CPU & innards barely breaks a sweat and remains extremely cool. The fan (for the few times it turned on) is extremely quite and efficient. A definite recommended buy.

We just got some of these at work (sign company) to replace some aging computers that were not compatible with Windows 11 (it was time to upgrade to remain compliant with security updates, etc.). I’m a designer there and use Adobe apps on them. InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. Coming from an iBuyPower Slate MR gaming PC circa 2018/2019 with a 9th gen Core i7 processor with 16 GB RAM and an Nvidia 2080 Super graphics card (8 GB).I haven’t noticed any issues and it seems to perform identically, except I am now on Windows 11 Pro, and this sucker is a fraction of the cost of many gaming PCs these days. I did a TON of research before suggesting these to work (and getting our IT guy’s stamp of approval).As others have mentioned, this is not a dedicated graphics card, so be aware of that. What you are getting is onboard graphics that are much better than the old UHD 770 standard. This type of graphics processor *shares* RAM with the system. So, while it shows 128 MB VRAM for the “graphics card,” that’s not really all you’re getting. Remember that it uses the system RAM to complement that. And this thing has 32 GB of RAM out of the box. That is more than I had in my previous system, which had 16 GB of physical RAM and 8 GB on the graphics card. And it supports up to 64 GB of RAM, so the more you throw in there, the happier it’ll be.While not a gaming PC by hard-core gaming standards (you really need a dedicated graphics card for that), I have a feeling this thing could handle some casual games (you might need to check or adjust some settings to make sure you’re maxing out your RAM utilization in-game — another comment on here mentioned a performance mode; I suspect enabling that would be what is needed to allocate enough RAM to those hungry apps). I have not tested that because this is my work computer. I don’t play games on it.However, there is also the option of connecting a graphics card externally via USB 4, from what I understand.For what I use it for — graphic design work — it works great so far, out of the box. Navigation has been smooth and seamless, my Adobe apps open pretty quickly, and there’s no delay or lag, as I’m working, even in high-quality display mode. I do see a possibility of wanting more RAM before long, as I start to work with it more and put it through its paces, but so far I’m very happy with it.

I picked up this mini PC to replace my aging home computer.I typically use my home computer for browsing, office related tasks (Microsoft 365), running virtual machines, software development, video streaming, etc. It's performed all of these tasks quickly and smoothly. I'm not into gaming, so I don't have a need for a high-powered GPU and the Intel Arc graphics card has worked well.After a few days of usage, here's what I've noticed.Pros:* Extremely fast, even when I run VMs (each with 8GB memory and multiple cores)* Quiet, even when the fan is running (when compared against my HP Z820)* Runs Fedora Linux 41 on bare metal* Successfully upgraded to 64GB using Crucial 64GB DDR5 RAM 5600MHz (search for CT2K32G56C46S5)* Support team is responsive to emails within a 48 hour periodCons:* Limits on the secondary internal SSD. It comes with a 2 TB 2280 NVMe SSD which is excellent. There's also a port for an internal secondary SSD, but it only supports M.2 2242 SATA SSD (they keyword here is SATA and not NVMe). Most of the reliable name brand SSD vendors do not produce M.2 2242 SATA SSDs any longer. However, if you're willing to go the external SSD routes, you can hook up anything you want to the fast USB 4.0 ports included.I really appreciate the high performance (specifically the Intel U9-185H processor + 32 GB RAM + 2 TB SSD) and small form factor of this mini PC. It can be successfully upgraded to 64 GB of RAM. If you want to extend drive capacity and get maximum performance, you'll need to use an external SSD with the USB 4.0 ports.
