A 12-core M4 Pro with a 16-core GPU against a 16-core Core Ultra 9 185H with Intel Arc graphics. The Mac runs very fast unified memory for its GPU, while the Geekom GT13 Max is a general-purpose Windows desktop with a dedicated AI Boost NPU instead.
24 GB of unified LPDDR5X at 8533 MT/s on the Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro 24GB + 512GB), against 16 GB of DDR5 at 5600 MT/s on SODIMM slots that reach 64 GB on the Geekom GT13 Max. The Mac is faster and fixed; the GT13 Max starts smaller but grows.
The Geekom GT13 Max ships 1 TB on a Gen4 drive and leaves an M.2 2242 SATA slot free. The Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro 24GB + 512GB) has 512 GB that cannot be replaced, so extra capacity means an external Thunderbolt drive.
Three Thunderbolt 5 ports, two USB-C ports and one HDMI on the Mac, against two USB4 ports, five USB 3.2 Type-A ports, two HDMI 2.0 outputs, a Mini DisplayPort and an SD 4.0 reader on the Geekom GT13 Max. The GT13 Max covers more device types, the Mac offers the fastest links.
The Geekom GT13 Max carries a three-year warranty and ships Windows 11 Pro. The Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro 24GB + 512GB) carries one year and runs macOS, so software needs are the first filter between them.
Final Cut, Xcode and the Mac creative stack run natively on the Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro 24GB + 512GB), with three Thunderbolt 5 ports for the desk.
The Geekom GT13 Max takes DDR5 to 64 GB and adds a second drive bay, which the Mac cannot offer.
1 TB plus a free M.2 2242 SATA slot on the GT13 Max against 512 GB of soldered storage on the Mac.
Both are on the Geekom GT13 Max, where the Mac has one Gigabit port and no card reader.
The Geekom GT13 Max carries three years against one year on the Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro 24GB + 512GB).
Apple Mac Mini (M4 Pro 24GB + 512GB) owners describe a machine that stays quiet and effortless through professional work: video timelines, Xcode and Android Studio builds, database work and local language models. They like the compact aluminium footprint, the three Thunderbolt 5 ports for multiple large displays and fast storage, and the fact that the money goes into silicon rather than a bundled screen and keyboard. The warnings are about permanence and ports: the 24 GB of memory and the 512 GB SSD are soldered and cannot be upgraded, there is no USB-A, SD reader or Kensington lock, Ethernet is Gigabit unless configured at purchase, and no HDMI cable or VESA option is included.
Every price change of both, in the same store, so the gap between the two lines is what one costs more than the other.
