Let’s be honest—most “stealth launches” in the PC world are forgettable. A slightly faster SSD here, a refreshed cooler there. But every once in a while, a company drops something that makes you do a double-take. That’s exactly what OneXPlayer just did with the OneXStation, a new AMD-powered gaming mini PC that seems to have materialized out of thin air.
And it’s an absolute beast.
Meet the Ryzen AI Max+ 395: Strix Halo’s Heavyweight Champion
At the heart of the OneXStation sits the Ryzen AI Max+ 395, the current top-dog processor from AMD’s Strix Halo lineup. This isn’t your typical mobile chip. We’re talking about a Zen 5 CPU paired with an absolutely absurd 128GB of LPDDR5X RAM running at 8,000MHz. Yes, you read that right—128 gigs in a mini PC.
But here’s where things get really interesting. OneXPlayer lets you allocate up to 96GB of that system memory to the integrated Radeon 8060S iGPU as dedicated VRAM. Think about that for a second. Most gaming laptops are still shipping with 8GB or 12GB on their discrete GPUs. This little box can throw 96GB at a game if you want it to.
Radeon 8060S: RTX 4070 Laptop Performance – No Joke
You might be skeptical about integrated graphics challenging a dedicated laptop GPU. I was too. But our in-depth analysis of the Radeon 8060S shows that this iGPU delivers gaming performance on par with the Nvidia RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. That means 1440p gaming at high settings, smooth frame rates in AAA titles, and even respectable 4K performance in many games.
And because you can feed it up to 96GB of VRAM, AI workloads—think running large language models locally, training small diffusion models, or heavy video editing—are handled with surprising ease. This isn’t just a gaming box; it’s a portable AI workstation.
Storage, Cooling, and Power Modes: The Nitty-Gritty
On the storage side, the OneXStation comes with two PCIe 4.0 x4 slots, each supporting up to a 4TB SSD. The base configuration ships with a 1TB drive, but you can easily upgrade. If you’re looking to max things out, consider grabbing a 2TB Samsung 990 EVO Plus on Amazon (currently $375.73) – it’s a fantastic match for this system’s speed.
Cooling is often the Achilles’ heel of tiny PCs, but OneXPlayer claims a dual-fan system with one internal downward-blowing fan that keeps things in check even at full tilt. Speaking of which, the TDP is fully adjustable. You get three presets:
- 55W mode – Silent, efficient, great for everyday tasks and lighter gaming
- 85W mode – The sweet spot for most AAA gaming
- 120W mode – Unleash the full beast. This is where the 8060S really sings
Ports Galore (With One Small Caveat)
OneXPlayer didn’t skimp on connectivity. Here’s what’s packed onto the back and front of the OneXStation:
- 3x USB 3.2 Type-A
- 2x USB4 (support eGPU and DisplayPort 1.4)
- 1x 3.5 mm audio jack
- 1x DisplayPort
- 1x HDMI
- 1x SD 4.0 card reader
- 1x second 3.5 mm audio (yes, two – handy for separate mic and headphones)
- 1x 2.5G Ethernet
One important note: the USB4 ports do not support Power Delivery. So if you’re hoping to power the mini PC over USB-C, that’s a no-go. You’ll need the included power brick. But they do support eGPUs, which is a nice touch if you ever want to bolt on an even more powerful graphics card down the line.
Design: Familiar but With a Little Flair
Visually, the OneXStation doesn’t reinvent the wheel. It shares a similar footprint to other Ryzen AI Max+ 395 mini PCs like the Corsair AI Workstation 300. But OneXPlayer added a subtle LED strip around the front corners that gives it just enough personality to stand out on your desk. It’s not RGB overload – more of an accent light. Classy, not tacky.
The build quality feels solid from the press renders, and the downward-blowing fan intake is cleverly positioned to avoid choking on carpet or crowded desks.
Price and Availability: One Configuration, One Big Number
Here’s where things get real. The OneXStation is available right now on the official store, but only in a single configuration: 128GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The price? $2,999.
That’s not a typo. Three thousand dollars for a mini PC.
Before you close the tab, consider what you’re getting: a machine that can game like an RTX 4070 laptop, run 96GB of VRAM for local AI models, and fit in a backpack. Comparable workstations with that much RAM and a discrete GPU often cost much more. Still, it’s a niche product for enthusiasts, developers, and AI tinkerers – not your average Steam gamer.

Final Thoughts: Who Is This For?
The OneXStation isn’t trying to compete with a $600 budget gaming desktop. It’s aimed at three specific crowds:
- AI enthusiasts who want to run LLMs locally without spending $5,000+ on a workstation
- Portable power users who need serious compute in a tiny footprint for travel or cramped setups
- Weird PC geeks (I say that with love) who just love seeing what happens when you shove 128GB of RAM into an integrated graphics system
If you fall into any of those camps, the OneXStation is genuinely exciting. For everyone else? It’s a fascinating glimpse of where integrated graphics are headed. The fact that an iGPU can now match an RTX 4070 laptop chip is nothing short of incredible.
OneXPlayer may have launched this one quietly, but the OneXStation is already making noise.
