The Geekom brings a 16-core Core Ultra 9 185H, DDR5 at 5600 MT/s, a 1TB SSD, dual 2.5G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7 and two USB4 ports. The Beelink EQR7 is the quieter, more affordable option and still a strong small server, with a built-in 85W power supply, dual 2.5G Ethernet and two M.2 slots, but its 16GB of LPDDR5 is sealed and video is HDMI only. Both carry a three-year warranty and both are integrated-graphics machines. Pick the Beelink EQR7 for a quiet, low-power box that handles everyday work and a small home lab, and the Geekom GT13 Max when you want more speed, more ports and a larger drive.

What the differences mean

Memory

The Geekom GT13 Max uses DDR5 at 5600 MT/s in SODIMM slots and reaches 64GB, while the Beelink EQR7 (7735U 16GB + 500GB) seals 16GB of LPDDR5 with no upgrade. Future-proofing leans to the Geekom despite the Beelink feeling quick for everyday work.

Storage

The Geekom GT13 Max has a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD and a free M.2 2242 SATA slot, while the Beelink EQR7 (7735U 16GB + 500GB) has 500GB and a free M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 slot. More capacity out of the box on the Geekom, similar room to add.

Ports

The Geekom GT13 Max adds two USB4 ports, a Mini DisplayPort, five USB 3.2 Type-A ports and an SD 4.0 reader. The Beelink EQR7 (7735U 16GB + 500GB) has four USB Type-A ports but no USB4, no DisplayPort and no SD slot, and its USB-C carries data only.

CPU

A 16-core Core Ultra 9 185H in the Geekom GT13 Max against an eight-core Ryzen 7 7735U in the Beelink EQR7 (7735U 16GB + 500GB). For heavier multitasking the Geekom is ahead, while the Beelink stays efficient and quiet.

Power and warranty

The Beelink EQR7 (7735U 16GB + 500GB) runs from a built-in power supply, while the Geekom GT13 Max needs an external 120W adapter. Both are covered by a three-year warranty, so cover length does not separate them.
