Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 5 vs Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 9

Full Mini PCs comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official Geekom site.
2026 verdict
Same body, two very different Core Ultra chips: the Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 9 wins on rating and storage, stepping up from the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H in the Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 5 to a Core Ultra 9 185H and doubling the SSD to 2TB.
The Ultra 5 model answers with a lower price, making it the value pick if you don't need the extra CPU headroom or storage. Everything else matches: both run 32GB of DDR5-5600 memory (expandable to 64GB), Intel Arc graphics, an NPU, Wi-Fi 7, dual 2.5G Ethernet, an SD card slot, a Kensington lock, an included VESA mount, a bundled HDMI cable and a 3-year warranty. Choose the Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 9 if you want the stronger CPU and double the storage out of the box; choose the Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 5 if your workloads don't need either and you'd rather save money.
