2026 verdict
AMD's newer platform undercuts Intel's veteran chip in this one: the Geekom A8 Max (Ryzen 7) wins on price, owner rating and memory, running DDR5 at a higher speed than the Geekom IT13 (1TB)'s DDR4, all built around an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS versus Intel's Core i9 13900HK. The IT13 (1TB) doesn't top any measured category here, but it isn't outclassed either, its i9 still handles 4K editing, DAWs and Plex duty according to owners, and it ships with an included HDMI cable the A8 Max skips. Both pack 32GB of RAM (expandable to 64GB), a 1TB SSD, dual HDMI, Wi-Fi, an aluminum chassis and a 3-year warranty, and the A8 Max adds a second 2.5G Ethernet port for anyone running dual-NIC setups. For most buyers the Geekom A8 Max (Ryzen 7) is the easy pick on value and platform; the Geekom IT13 (1TB) still makes sense for anyone who specifically wants Intel's i9 for editing or DAW workloads with a longer public track record.
