- The Retro X3 mini PC combines vintage design with Zen 4 Ryzen power
- Integrated Radeon 780M GPU delivers smooth graphics without the need for a separate card
- Dual DDR5-5600 SODIMM slots enable memory upgrades up to 128GB easily
Acemagic has officially launched its Retro X3 mini PC, bringing back a beige plastic case reminiscent of older systems while adding modern hardware upgrades.
The device retains the big red power button from previous models and adds a wide array of ports for modern connectivity.
The design intentionally reflects classic PCs from the 1980s and 1990s, with the gray casing and square silhouette evoking nostalgia for older desktop setups.
Updated hardware and modular expansion
The Retro X3 is powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 H 255, an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 4 architecture.
The CPU boosts up to 4.9 GHz and is paired with an integrated Radeon 780M GPU with up to twelve compute units.
This mini PC supports modular RAM installation via two DDR5-5600 SODIMM slots, allowing for up to 128GB of memory, and two M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 SSD slots offer up to 4TB of storage.
Acemagic emphasizes a tool-free upgrade process and uses slide release buttons that provide easy access to storage and memory without specialized tools.
On the front, users can access two USB 3.2 ports, a 3.5mm audio jack, and a USB4 Type-C port capable of transferring data at 40Gbps, ensuring high-speed access for mobile workstations.
The rear panel includes one HDMI 2.1 port, one DisplayPort 2.0 port, 2.5G LAN and four USB 3.2 ports, supporting external displays, peripherals and high-speed wired networks.
For wireless connectivity, the Retro X3 includes Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and 2.5GbE, offering flexible network connectivity.
A dedicated air cooling system draws cold air from the top of the chassis and expels heat through the side and rear vents, keeping the internal temperature stable even under load.
At just 128.2 x 128.2 x 44mm, the mini PC is compact enough to fit on a desk without taking up too much space.
The Retro
The device follows the previous Retro X5 but offers a slightly simpler exterior design while maintaining strong internal specifications.
This retro appearance does not affect its internal components, allowing users to enjoy the charm of vintage design without compromising current computing standards.
