AMD has quietly expanded its processor lineup with 11 new "Hawk Point" APUs by adding seven SKUs to the Ryzen 200 series and four to the Ryzen 100 series. In the Ryzen 200 series, the seven new models feature six- and eight-core configurations: Ryzen 3 205, Ryzen 5 216, Ryzen 7 217, Ryzen 5 224, Ryzen 5 225, Ryzen 7 249, and Ryzen 7 253. The lineup combines standard Zen 4 cores and hybrid Zen 4/Zen 4c designs, paired with Radeon 740M, 760M, or 780M integrated graphics. AMD also added four processors to the Ryzen 100 series: Ryzen 9 180, Ryzen 7 165, Ryzen 7 155, and Ryzen 5 125. The new Ryzen 100 processors offer four, six and eight CPU cores with integrated Radeon 740M, 760M, or 780M GPUs.

Although the existing Ryzen 100 family was initially associated with Zen 3+, these new models are based on "Hawk Point", featuring Zen 4 CPU cores, a 4 nm process, and Radeon 700M integrated graphics, indicating AMD's earlier website listing was incorrect, as Videocardz noticed. As with previous "Hawk Point" releases these are expected to appear primarily in upcoming OEM laptops and Mini-PCs. This "Hawk Point" lineup expansion from AMD follows the recent addition of "new" processors based on older Zen2 and Zen+ architectures, namely Ryzen 7 4700LE, Ryzen 5 3501U and Ryzen 3 3100U.

MSI introduces the new PRO MAX Series, a unified high-end platform shaped by Modernity, Acceleration, and eXperience for the evolving rhythm of everyday work. Guided by a consistent design language of color, hierarchy, and structure, PRO MAX keeps the focus on what matters most-the content itself. Performance is tuned for multitasking, image processing, data-driven workloads, and out of office collaboration, while an intuitive and predictable user experience ensures a smooth and uninterrupted flow across different work environments.

As work expands across shared, and hybrid settings, PRO MAX maintains continuity wherever work happens. The PRO MAX Series debuts with a complete product lineup spanning Monitor, Desktop PC, All-in-one PC, Motherboard, Power supply, Chassis and Liquid cooler-forming a fully integrated ecosystem for everyday work.

With the recent barrage of AMD-powered mini PCs coming to the market, it was only a matter of time before manufacturers started dipping into peculiar form factors and niche gimmicks in order to set themselves apart from the vaguely Mac Mini-shaped crowd. GTBox has apparently decided that its new take on the mini PC would take shape as a PC disguised as a navy blue Bluetooth speaker. Not coincidentally, the mini PC also includes two 5 W stereo speakers, which GTBox claims deliver "precise localization, a wide soundstage, and deep immersion," although it's more likely something akin to a sound bar, given how much of the PC's internals are taken up by the actual PC components.

Questions about the speaker quality aside, the internals boast some decent specifications, including an AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS, with its Radeon 780M, 32 GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1 TB PCIe SSD. The port selection isn't bad either, with the T1 equipped with 3× USB 3.2 ports, 1× USB 2.0, 1× USB4, an RJ45 port for 2.5 Gbps Ethernet, a DisplayPort 2.0 port, and an HDMI 2.1 port. All of the ports are located on the rear, alongside the exhaust for the single fan, all in an attempt to maintain the clean design with its fabric cover. The mini PC also features a backlit GTBox logo and an LED ring on the top of the case, which can be adjusted to green, blue, or yellow. It also comes with Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi 6 on-board.
