AMD Ryzen 4000-U series 15W processors were announced in January 2020, and by the end of the year, we covered some mini PCs with Ryzen 3/5/7 processors from the new family with products such as ASRock Mars 4000U and ASROCK 4X4 BOX-4800U.
MINISFORUM has now announced its own Ryzen 4000-U series mini PC with MINIXFORUM HM50 mini PC powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 4500U hexa-core processor that offers three 4K display output ports (HDMI, DP, and USB-C), as well a 2.5GbE and Gigabit Ethernet ports, six USB 3.0/3.1 ports and more.

Despite being a fairly little-known company, MINISFORUM decided to host a crowdfunding campaign on its own website, where you can pre-order HM50 mini PC for $699 with a 256GB SSD, or $739 with a 512GB SSD. Using A-9XGB0DP6XZEG discount code will bring that down by $100. Shipping was free when I tried, but it’s “calculated at check out” so YMMW. Deliveries are scheduled to start at the end of April.
Thanks to Linuxium for the tip.
