Maxsun Unveils a Powerful & Compact AI Workstation, The ARL-HX Mini Station: Equipped With Dual Arc PRO B60 24 GB GPUs, 256 GB Memory & Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, All For Under $2800 US
Today, Maxsun sent us an announcement of its brand new product, the ARL-HX Mini Station. This PC was revealed a few months ago, but now, Maxsun is going in for the formal unveiling. The positioning of this Mini PC is within the AI Workstation market, and it happens to be one of the most powerful designs in such a compact space.
A powerful 20L compact system purpose-built for AI professionals:
- Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX (24 cores, up to 5.4GHz)
- Dual PCIe Gen5 GPU support – accelerate your AI workflows
- 4x 64GB DDR5 up to 7200MT/s (OC) – massive bandwidth
- Thunderbolt 5 + M.2 + SlimSAS +PCIe x4 + 10G LAN + Wi-Fi 7
- Independent CPU & GPU thermal chambers – cool under pressure
Starting with the design, the Maxsun ARL-HX Mini Station makes use of a full metal chassis, which has been designed with lots of cooling potential. The chassis includes vents and mesh grills on the front & sides, while the independent thermal chambers for the CPU and the GPU make sure that each hardware component gets adequate cooling. The chassis also supports standard ATX power supplies, which is a big plus.
For the internals, Maxsun has gone with Intel's Core Ultra 9 275HX, a desktop-grade mobility chip, with a total of 8 P-Cores and 16 E-Cores. This chip operates at up to 5.4 GHz with a maximum TDP of 160W. The chip is a soldered design that is featured on a MoTD motherboard.
There's support for up to 256 GB SO-DIMM DDR5 memory with up to 7200 MT/s OC speeds. Maxsun states that they have designed the board for the ARL-HX Mini Station with an innovative T-Shaped design with enhanced wiring to support the OC speeds. It will be interesting to see if this MoTD option is sold separately.
For the GPU, Maxsun has integrated dual PCIe Gen5 slots on the ARL-HX Mini Station. This allows for two individual graphics cards (each up to 2 slots) or a single RTX 5090 (3 slots). In its default configuration, the Mini PC will be equipped with two Intel Arc PRO B60 graphics cards, each with 24 GB VRAM, for a total of 48 GB VRAM for AI Workloads. Maxsun also has a dual Arc PRO B60 48 GB graphics card, so it will be very interesting to see if that is also supported by the chassis.
Besides the main components, you are also getting some high-end IO capabilities such as four Thunderbolt ports (2 TB5 + 2 TB4), a 10G LAN + 2.5G LAN with WIFI7 integration. Finally, we have the storage side where the ARL-HX Mini Station is positioned as a SlimSAS product, offering 3 M.2 slots, 2 SFF 8654-4i ports with 8x SATA interfaces, and a single PCIe x4 slot. There are also two DP-In ports with four Type-A ports on the front and 4 Type-A ports on the back.
As for launch, the Maxsun ARL-HX Mini Station is expected to be shipped in September 2025 with a base price of close to $2800 US. The Mini PC is perfect for running LLMs up to 671B with its large 256 GB memory pool and 70B models on the Arc GPUs. It is also optimized for Qwen-32B models on DeepSeek.
