Winner

GMKtec NucBox M2 Pro S (16GB + 1TB)

$499.98

Buy on Amazon USA

Both ship 16GB of DDR4 and a 1TB drive, but the GMKtec adds a four-core Core i7-1185G7, Iris Xe graphics for three 4K 60Hz displays, and a 361g metal chassis. The Geekom A5 Pro 2026 Edition (16GB + 1TB) still holds the longer three-year warranty, plus an SD card reader, a Kensington lock and four-display output via two HDMI 2.0 and two USB-C ports. Buy the M2 Pro S for the better-reviewed, lower-cost everyday desktop; buy the Geekom when coverage and extra ports matter more than the invoice.
