There are only a few hours before Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sales end, and I've curated the most powerful mini PCs out there like the Minisforum 795S7 - the fastest of them all. It offers fantastic value for anyone looking for a mini workstation under $1000, a deal made sweeter thanks to the Ryzen 9 7945HX and a dedicated RTX 4060 GPU - but hurry up though, as there are only 10 left at this price!

The best mini PCs are ideal for small desks, home workstations, or for anyone needing reliable computing power in a tiny footprint.

All of the pocket-sized PCs I've chosen here deliver desktop-class performance for heavy usage, AI training, rendering, AEC and even a bit of gaming on the side. It's not too late to save on your tech purchases - and who doesn't love a bargain - if you browse our Amazon Prime Day hub.

Today's top powerful mini PC October Prime Day deals

I have been reviewing and following the rise of mini PCs for almost a decade now - so much so, they're now genuine contenders to replace desktop PCs entirely.

The Minisforum 795S7 is the perfect embodiment of that, offering the best value under $1,000. It delivers incredible value for money with a 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX processor, 32GB DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Oh and let's not forget the RTX 4060 GPU with 8GB GDDR7.

No other mini PC comes close to offering its versatility for the price. Despite its size, it has a 400W PSU built in and a dozen I/O ports including dedicated audio connectors, a rarity amongst mini PC products.

And perhaps to highlight how close AMD works with Minisforum, the Chinese brand is the only one that has produced a mini PC based on either the 7945HX or the 9945HX (AMD's most powerful mobile CPU).
