Priced at 14,999 yuan (around $2,170), the Evo-T2S is designed for users seeking a powerful desktop replacement with strong AI capabilities and versatile connectivity options.
The Evo-T2S is powered by Intel’s latest Core Ultra X7 358H processor, built on the advanced 18A 1.8nm process node. This hybrid CPU features 16 cores: 4 performance, 8 efficiency, and 4 low-power cores, with turbo speeds up to 5.1GHz. It delivers impressive 180 TOPS of INT8 AI performance through its integrated Intel NPU 5 engine, boosting AI inference and enhancing cooperation between CPU and GPU tasks.
Graphics are handled by the Intel Arc B390 GPU, equipped with 12 Xe3 cores clocked up to 2.5GHz. The B390 supports ray tracing and is capable of 1080p gaming, video editing, and 3D rendering. It also includes 96 XMX AI cores, compatible with Intel’s XeSS upscaling and AI-driven frame generation technologies to improve visual quality.
Memory is provided by 64GB of LPDDR5X RAM running at 8533 MT/s, paired with an 853GB SSD. The device also includes two M.2 2280 slots supporting PCIe Gen5 and Gen4 drives, allowing storage expansion up to 16TB. Gmktec incorporates Phison’s aiDAPTIV+ technology to offload AI workload data to the SSD, reducing RAM load and enhancing overall system efficiency.
