China’s Abee launches high-powered mini PC with built-in AI engine
Chinese tech manufacturer Abee has unveiled a compact AI workstation powered by AMD’s most powerful AI-focused processor to date, the Ryzen AI Max 395, at the AMD Industry Solution National Conference.
Dubbed the Abee AI Station, the desktop-class device features a 16-core, 32-thread APU with boost speeds reaching 5.1GHz, supported by a dedicated NPU rated at over 50 TOPS and a combined AI throughput of 126 TOPS.
Designed for developers, AI engineers, and edge-computing professionals, the machine delivers enterprise-grade performance in a chassis measuring just 21 x 22 x 15 cm.
Despite its compact form factor, the system includes a platinum-rated 400W Flex ATX power supply, liquid cooling via an internal radiator and pump assembly, and dual 92mm fans to ensure thermal stability during sustained workloads.

The AI Station integrates an AMD Radeon 8600S GPU clocked at 2900MHz, supporting up to 96GB of shared memory for compute-intensive tasks, as reported by Tech Radar.
It also features 128GB of LP-DDR5X RAM running at 8000MT/s, although this memory is soldered and non-upgradeable.
Storage includes dual 56GB modules and a 1TB DOGE SSD, rounding out a system clearly intended for heavy local inference workloads.
The AI Station's hardware is complemented by a custom ATX12VO motherboard and modern networking options including dual Ethernet ports, one 2.5GbE and one 10GbE, for high-speed data transfer.
The package supports a 27-inch AOC Q27P3U display with 2K resolution and a 75Hz refresh rate, and ships with additional accessories such as the V700 958FI webcam and a VT60 wireless mechanical keyboard and mouse set.

AMD has unveiled the abee Ai Station, a compact workstation powered by the Ryzen AI MAX 395 (16C/32T @ 5.1 GHz) and Radeon 8600S with 96 RDNA 3.5 CUs. The system delivers up to 126 TOPS, aimed at high-density edge inference workloads.

Abee joins a growing list of Chinese vendors like GMKTec and SDUNITED to build mini-PCs around AMD’s Strix Halo-class silicon.
However, global brands such as Asus and HP have so far confined the chip to larger workstation-class desktops.
Whether this mini PC form factor will catch on outside China remains to be seen, but the Abee AI Station’s specifications place it among the most ambitious compact AI systems available today.
Real-world performance testing, however, will determine if it can deliver on its considerable promise.
