2026 verdict
Both wear the Geekom badge, but they are not the same tier of mini PC: the Geekom A9 Max (HX 370) is the overall winner over the Geekom A5 Pro (Ryzen 5 16GB + 512GB), running newer DDR5 memory with more memory capacity and more storage capacity. The Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 inside the A9 Max also brings a 50 TOPS NPU and dual USB4 Type-C ports that the A5 Pro's six-core Ryzen 5 7430U and Radeon Vega 7 graphics do not offer, since the A5 Pro has no NPU and no USB4 at all. The A5 Pro answers with a lower price and a higher owner rating, and it is the smaller, lighter machine of the two, built specifically for quiet office and browsing duty rather than AI workloads. Both carry the same three-year warranty, so buyers who need on-device AI acceleration, more memory headroom or USB4 expansion should pick the Geekom A9 Max (HX 370), while anyone who wants a quieter, cheaper everyday desktop should choose the Geekom A5 Pro (Ryzen 5 16GB + 512GB).
