The Acemagic S3A mini PC measures 5 inches square and 1.6 inches thick, similar in size to the latest Mac Mini M4 and more compact than earlier Mac Mini models. Its RAM and storage are neatly arranged on one side, easily accessible by removing the side panel for future upgrades.
This S3A model is powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS processor with integrated Radeon 780M graphics. For a low-power integrated solution, the 780M delivers impressive gaming performance. While integrated GPUs were once limited, today's versions can smoothly run games like Fortnite and Minecraft at 1080p, and even more demanding titles such as Red Dead Redemption 2, Apex Legends, or Cyberpunk at reduced 720p/1080p resolutions using FSR performance mode, maintaining a steady 30fps. While a dedicated graphics card offers better performance, it comes at a higher cost and requires a larger chassis.
In addition to the powerful CPU, this mini PC includes generous memory and storage. It comes with 32GB (2x16GB) of DDR5-5600MHz RAM and a 1TB PCIe Gen 4 M.2 NVMe 2280 SSD with transfer speeds up to 7,000MB/s—significantly faster than what's typically found in budget mini computers.
The Acemagic S3A offers extensive connectivity options, including one USB4 Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, four USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, DisplayPort 2.0, HDMI 2.0, a 3.5mm audio jack, and an RJ-45 2.5GbE Ethernet port. It supports video output up to 4K @ 120Hz via USB4 or DisplayPort 2.0 (though gaming at these settings is not recommended). Internally, it features Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless connectivity.
