2026 verdict
Newer memory and double the storage put the Geekom A6 (Ryzen 7 16GB + 1TB) ahead of the GMKtec NucBox M5 Ultra (32GB + 512GB) in this matchup, with a higher owner rating, DDR5 memory against the GMKtec's DDR4, and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 drive against 512GB. A 3 year warranty on the Geekom against the GMKtec's 1 year adds further weight. The GMKtec NucBox M5 Ultra (32GB + 512GB) answers with a lower price and double the memory capacity at 32GB against the Geekom's 16GB, which matters for anyone running memory-hungry virtual machines. Both use 8-core AMD processors, 2.5G Ethernet and Wi-Fi 6E. Pick the Geekom A6 (Ryzen 7 16GB + 1TB) for storage headroom and warranty length, and the GMKtec NucBox M5 Ultra (32GB + 512GB) if 32GB of RAM out of the box matters more than either.
