GMKtec Unveils EVO-X5 Pro at IFA 2026, Bringing Fully Local 300B-Parameter AI to the Agentic PC Era

New desktop AI computing platform combines AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495, up to 192GB unified memory, and enterprise-grade remote management for fully offline AI workloads

BERLIN — September 5, 2026 — At IFA 2026 in Berlin, global computing brand GMKtec today unveiled the EVO-X5 Pro, a new flagship desktop AI computing platform designed for the emerging era of Agentic PCs.

Built around AMD’s Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 processor and up to 192GB of unified memory, the EVO-X5 Pro is designed to run large language models locally and fully offline, including models with up to 300 billion parameters. The system brings together CPU, GPU and NPU computing in a compact desktop form factor, enabling users to deploy AI models, orchestrate agentic workflows and run multi-agent applications without relying on the cloud.

Under the theme “The Agent Era Arrives,” GMKtec is positioning the EVO-X5 Pro as more than an incremental AI PC upgrade. The company sees the industry moving from PCs that can simply run AI applications toward Agentic PCs that can understand tasks, reason over information and take action on a user’s behalf.

From AI PCs to Agentic PCs

The EVO-X5 Pro is designed as a local AI computing platform for users who need greater control over their data, models and AI workloads.

With support for local LLM deployment, agent orchestration and multi-agent workflows, the system enables professional users to keep AI processing on the desktop rather than sending sensitive workloads to remote cloud infrastructure.

This approach is particularly relevant for organizations handling confidential or regulated information, where data privacy, security and local processing can be critical requirements.

CPU, GPU and NPU in One Platform

At the heart of the EVO-X5 Pro is the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495, combining three complementary computing engines:

CPU: 16 Zen 5 cores and 32 threads, with boost frequencies of up to 5.2GHz for demanding workloads and multitasking.

GPU: AMD Radeon™ 8065S graphics based on the RDNA 3.5 architecture, with 40 compute units and hardware-accelerated ray tracing.

NPU: AMD XDNA™ 2 architecture delivering up to 55 TOPS of AI performance for local AI workloads.

The combination allows the EVO-X5 Pro to handle conventional computing, graphics-intensive workloads and AI processing within a single desktop platform.

192GB Unified Memory for Local 300B-Parameter AI

The EVO-X5 Pro supports up to 192GB of unified memory, with up to 160GB configurable as dedicated VRAM.

Combined with LPDDR5X memory running at 8533MT/s and approximately 273GB/s of memory bandwidth, the platform is designed to run LLMs with up to 300 billion parameters locally and fully offline.

By keeping model inference and data processing on the device, the EVO-X5 Pro is designed to reduce reliance on cloud infrastructure while providing a more controlled environment for privacy-sensitive AI workloads.

Enterprise-Grade Security and Remote Management

For professional and enterprise deployments, the EVO-X5 Pro incorporates AMD DASH remote management technology, together with an RJ45 DASH network adapter and a dedicated dTPM 2.0 security chip.

The platform supports operating-system-independent out-of-band (OOB) management, allowing IT teams to remotely monitor, configure and manage systems across different platforms and operating environments.

The EVO-X5 Pro has also been validated for continuous 24/7 operation, supporting demanding business environments where reliability and availability are essential.

Compact Design, Thermal Performance and Expansion

The EVO-X5 Pro combines a CNC-machined all-metal chassis with an integrated smart function key. Its industrial design was developed by a designer recognized with a Red Dot Award.

For sustained workloads, the system uses a vapor chamber cooling system and three-fan active cooling architecture, with three selectable performance modes to balance performance and thermal efficiency.

The system also provides extensive connectivity and expansion options, including:

● Dual front USB4 ports

● Dual rear full-featured USB4 V2 ports

● External GPU dock support

● 8K video output

● Multi-system connectivity for distributed computing clusters

With USB4 V2 multi-system interconnectivity, multiple EVO-X5 Pro systems can also be combined into a distributed computing environment for larger AI and workstation workloads.

Designed for Professional and Privacy-Sensitive Workloads

GMKtec expects the EVO-X5 Pro to serve a broad range of professional applications, particularly workloads where local processing, data control and high computing performance are important.

Potential applications include government and public-sector systems, healthcare and life sciences, financial services, legal and compliance-related environments, confidential research laboratories and enterprise computing.

By combining local AI processing, high memory capacity, enterprise management and multi-system scalability, the EVO-X5 Pro is designed to bring AI computing capabilities traditionally associated with larger infrastructure closer to the desktop.

At a new inflection point in the evolution of personal computing, the GMKtec EVO-X5 Pro is redefining the desktop experience for the Agentic PC era with powerful edge AI performance, massive unified memory, and advanced thermal engineering. Building on its deep collaboration with AMD, GMKtec will continue working with developers and industry partners worldwide to unlock the full potential of local AI computing and help shape a new generation of AI-powered productivity.

Backed by high-performance hardware and recognition from leading industry awards, the GMKtec EVO-X5 Pro opens a new chapter for desktop systems capable of running large AI models locally. Looking ahead, GMKtec will continue to advance edge AI computing together with AMD, working alongside creators and developers around the world to explore new possibilities for productivity in the Agentic PC era.

Making its debut on the IFA 2026 stage, the EVO-X5 Pro is more than an award-winning flagship mini PC—it represents GMKtec’s vision for personal computing in the Agentic era. Powered by the AMD Zen 5 platform, GMKtec will continue to develop high-performance edge AI solutions designed to empower professionals and developers, helping bring the next generation of local intelligent computing to the desktop.

With a major IFA innovation award under its belt, the EVO-X5 Pro sets a new benchmark for local AI computing on the desktop. Together with AMD, GMKtec is continuing to build out the Agentic PC ecosystem, working with users around the world to advance the next generation of personal computing.
