The IT13 pairs a Core i9-13900HK with 32GB of faster DDR4 and a 1TB SSD, a genuine small workstation that owners run for 4K editing, DAWs and local AI, while the G3 Pro's Core i3-10110U and 16GB of memory target lighter browsing and office duty. The G3 Pro's advantage is price, and it still offers a second free M.2 SATA bay for anyone who wants to add storage gradually rather than pay for it all up front. Both run Windows 11 Pro out of the box and include a VESA mount, but the IT13 adds USB4, Wi-Fi 6E and an SD card reader that the G3 Pro does not have. Buyers who need serious CPU performance for creative work, local AI or server duty should choose the Geekom IT13 (1TB), while anyone shopping strictly on price for a basic desktop should go with the GMKtec NucBox G3 Pro (16GB + 512GB).
