ACEMAGIC Ships Retro X5 Mini PC

ACEMAGIC has launched the Retro X5, a compact Windows 11 Pro mini PC styled like a 1980s console and available for pre-order at $959. It includes an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (12 cores, 24 threads), Radeon 890M, 32 GB DDR5 and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe, plus USB4, dual 2.5 GbE, HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.0. ACEMAGIC positions the Retro X5 for local AI inference, citing support for DeepSeek R1 70B and LLaMA, though 70B-model performance depends on quantization and shared memory limits.
