Here’s an Amazon deal that will make minimalist warriors celebrate and Mac Mini loyalists have serious thoughts about crossing over to the dark side, aka Windows. The GMKtec G2 Plus Mini PC delivers incredible value from its teeny-tiny footprint, and easily outpunches its $230 regular price. But Amazon’s practically giving it away now for just $158, a sweet 31% off deal that will have you rethinking your desktop setup.
We’ve seen portable storage drives that cost more than the limited-time $158 price you can now grab the GMKtec G2 Plus Mini PC for, and while it wasn’t very long ago at all that we would shamelessly roll our eyes at a $158 PC, this one brings the goods. It has an Intel Twin Lake N150 processor that can hit up to 3.6GHz on the speedometer, a 512GB solid-state storage drive, and if you have three external 4K monitors that are sitting around in need of a connection, the tiny GMKtec G2 Plus Mini PC can run them all while hiding behind one of them.

Hide and Peak
One of the major selling points of the GMKtec G2 Plus or any other mini PC is the tiny amount of desk space it takes up. But there’s also the option of devoting no desk space to it — literally. Even if you can spare a modest footprint of 3.42 inches square by 1.55 inches tall, the GMKtec G2 Plus also comes with a vesa mount so you can securely anchor it to the back of an external monitor. With all the wired connections also hiding behind the display, you can make the GMKtec G2 Plus disappear.
What you can’t hide is the performance this mighty mite delivers. That upgraded Intel Twin Lake N150 processor is backed by 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and an Intel Graphics chip with a frequency of up to 1000MHz to keep things moving along at a brisk pace. If the 512GB of storage isn’t enough for you, it’s expandable to 2TB, or you can use its ample supply of USB ports for external storage.
Immense Bang for the Buck
Is the GMKtec G2 Plus going to replace a high-end gaming PC, or win benchmark contests against the Mac Mini? No. Will it give you more than enough processing power and speed to get all of your work and maybe some light gaming done, and make your browsing a breeze thanks to Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 connections, or the dual RJ45 Giga LAN ports? Absolutely.
Best of all, the GMKtec G2 Plus Mini PC will get all of that done and be an ultra-reliable everyday desktop PC while stuffing a pile of money back into your checking account compared to the big PC desktops and the Mac Mini. While Amazon’s limited-time deal is still delivering a 31% discount, the GMKtec G2 Plus Mini PC is just $158.
