HONG KONG — Minisforum, the innovative leader in compact computing solutions, has just expanded its flagship MS-A2 mini-PC lineup with jaw-dropping new memory configurations. The highlight? A staggering 96GB RAM option—pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in a palm-sized workstation.
Targeted at developers, content creators, and power users, the MS-A2 packs a 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX CPU (Zen 4 architecture) with 32 threads, clocked up to 5.4GHz. This isn’t just a minor upgrade—it’s a quantum leap for mini-PCs traditionally constrained by memory limitations. Users can now tackle 4K video editing, AI model training, or virtualized environments without breaking a sweat.
Why 96GB RAM Matters
- Multitasking Monster: Run multiple virtual machines, heavy IDE tools, and Chrome tabs (we’ve all been there) simultaneously.
- Future-Proofing: Ideal for memory-hungry applications like Blender, Docker containers, or large datasets.
- Discrete GPU Support: Thanks to an OCuLink port (PCIe 4.0 x4), users can add an external GPU for gaming or GPU-accelerated workflows.
Beyond raw power, the MS-A2 features:
- Dual DDR5 SO-DIMM slots (user-upgradable)
- Radeon 780M integrated graphics
- 4x 4K display support via HDMI 2.1, USB4, and DisplayPort
- 2.5G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6E, and abundant USB ports
Pricing and Availability
The base model starts at $871 (32GB RAM + 1TB SSD), but the new 64GB and 96GB variants cater to professionals needing extreme headroom.

The Verdict
Minisforum’s MS-A2 redefines "small but mighty." With 96GB RAM, it punches far above its weight class, offering desktop-tier performance in a 0.6L chassis. As remote work and compact setups dominate, this could be the ultimate desk-side (or backpack-friendly) powerhouse.
Price note: 96GB models are expected to ship by late August 2024.
