It brings a 16-core Core Ultra 9 185H, DDR5 at 5600 MT/s, a 1TB SSD with a free second M.2 slot, dual 2.5G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7 and a three-year warranty, where the Beelink SER5 Pro (16GB + 480GB) settles for an older six-core Ryzen 5, DDR4 and a one-year warranty. The SER5 Pro is the more affordable option, and its memory is not sealed: two DDR4 SODIMM slots take it to 64GB, and HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C drive three monitors. Neither includes a discrete GPU, so both are office, media and light-creation machines rather than gaming rigs. Pick the Beelink SER5 Pro if the budget and a memory upgrade path matter most, and the Geekom GT13 Max for the much faster platform, more ports and longer cover.

What the differences mean

CPU and memory

The Geekom GT13 Max runs a 16-core Core Ultra 9 185H with DDR5 at 5600 MT/s, while the Beelink SER5 Pro (16GB + 480GB) uses a six-core Ryzen 5 5500U with DDR4 at 3200 MT/s. The Geekom is the clearly faster machine for multitasking and heavier work.

Storage

The Geekom GT13 Max ships with a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD and a free M.2 2242 slot, against 480GB on the single M.2 2280 slot of the Beelink SER5 Pro (16GB + 480GB). More room to grow, and a larger drive from the start.

Networking

Dual 2.5G Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7 on the Geekom GT13 Max are a generation ahead of the single 2.5G port and Wi-Fi 6 on the Beelink SER5 Pro (16GB + 480GB). For a home lab or NAS, the second wired port and the newer wireless matter.

Ports

The Geekom GT13 Max adds a Mini DisplayPort, two USB4 ports, five USB 3.2 Type-A ports and an SD 4.0 reader. The Beelink SER5 Pro (16GB + 480GB) offers one HDMI, one DisplayPort, a USB-C output and three USB 3.2 Type-A ports, enough for an office desk but not for a busy lab.

Warranty

The Geekom GT13 Max is covered for three years against one year for the Beelink SER5 Pro (16GB + 480GB). On a machine that may run continuously, the longer warranty is a meaningful part of the price.
