- Favm unveiled its FA-EX9 mini PC with AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 Chip
- 96GB GPU memory and 128GB total RAM makes it ideal for creative professionals
- Compact AI-centric mini PC Nvidia is a challenger for DGX Spark
Chinese hardware manufacturer FAVM has announced FA-EX9, a compact AI-focused mini PC operated by AMD’s latest Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor. Depending on the Strike Halo platform, the chip contains 16 Zen 5 CPU core and 40 RDNA 3.5 compute units (Radone 8060S).
The decreasing device measures just 192 x 190 x 55 mm and with a total amount of just 2 liters with a total chassis volume, FAVM claims that the system is the smallest in its own way.
The purpose of FA-EX9 is targeted for AI professionals and deployed as a challenging for platforms such as DGX sparks of NVIDIA. It supports the maximum+ 395 processor in a continuous 120W power draw, which provides a performance equal to a ryzen 9955hx that has been paired with GeForce RTX 4070 laptop GPU.

The system uses LPDDR5 memory in a 256-bit bus, which provides 128GB of total memory. Up to 96GB can be allocated as GPU memory, so it can handle large language model workload without the need for discrete GPU.
FAVM claims that the AI of the AI of RTX 4090 in LM studio is 2.2 times higher at the LM studio while moving locally. The system uses dual turbine fans and phase-trans-thermal materials to manage heat while keeping the noise levels during high-load functions.
Connectivity of FA-EX9 includes HDMI 2.1, displayport 2.1, and two USB4 ports, with support up to four 8K displays. It also has an Oculink connector with a bundle adapter for high -performance external GPU expansion.
However no release date or pricing has been confirmed, Videocardz Teaser campaigns are currently going on in China.
