Over the past two months, BGR readers have enjoyed several exclusive mini PC deals from GEEKOM. The brand is quickly becoming a fan favorite for our audience, and it’s easy to see why. We gave our readers opportunities to get the GEEKOM IT13 mini PC for $724 and the GEEKOM A7 mini PC for $649. Then, another exclusive sale slashed the GEEKOM Mini IT11 to just $399.

This week, BGR readers have a chance to get a new GEEKOM A5 Mini PC at an even cheaper price than any of those earlier deals.

We’re offering our audience a rare opportunity to buy this best-selling model at the lowest price ever. Normally priced at $399, BGR readers can pick up a new GEEKOM A5 Mini PC for just $329 in the US or £329 in the UK. The same promotion is also available in GEEKOM’s Canadian and Australian stores, for readers in those regions. This is an exclusive deal that’s available only from May 27 through June 4.

We’ve heard from several readers who took advantage of the GEEKOM deals we’ve been sharing since early April. They’ve reached out to let us know how impressed they are with the power and performance offered by these awesome compact computers. We’ve tested several models ourselves, so we’re not at all surprised that our readers have been blown away. These tiny little PCs pack some serious punch.

Unfortunately, however, we’ve also heard from a few people who said they missed out on an exclusive deal because they were too late. If you’re one of the people who didn’t get in on that action, we have great news for you today: BGR has another exclusive sale to share, and it’s the cheapest one yet!

The GEEKOM A5 Mini PC offers some seriously impressive specs for such an affordable model. At its core, the A5 is powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H processor. It has 8 cores, 16 threads, 16MB of L3 cache, and a clock speed of up to 4.4GHz with max boost. Suffice it to say that this powerful processor can handle some serious computing.

The GEEKOM A5 build on offer in this deal comes with 32GB of ultra-fast DDR4 RAM preinstalled, and the A5 supports up to 64GB of RAM if you want to upgrade it. You also get a 512GB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 3×4 NVMe SSD drive, with support for up to 2TB of internal storage.

As far as video performance goes, this model packs AMD Radeon Vega 8 graphics, with support for up to four 4K displays. That’s crazy for a compact mini PC that only weighs 1.44 pounds.

For connectivity, you’ve got Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 radios built right in. There’s also a 2.5Gbps LAN port along with all the other ports you could possibly need.

On the front, the GEEKOM A5 Mini PC has two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports along with a 3.5mm audio jack. There’s also an integrated SD card reader on the side. Then, around back, you get two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, one USB 2.0 Type-A port, one HDMI 2.0b port, and the aforementioned RJ45 LAN port.

Here’s an example of just one test that was run on the GEEKOM A5. It opened Autodesk CAD, which is a 2GB piece of software, in under four seconds. Can your current PC open a 2GB app that fast? That’s already remarkable, but it gets even better. While working with files in CAD, the response time of this mini PC was just 0.1-0.5 seconds during all of the operations that were tested.

That’s incredible real-world performance for an ultra-compact mini PC with a retail price that’s less than half of what you’d spend on a new iPhone.

How small is the GEEKOM A5 Mini PC, you ask? The case measures just 4.6 x 4.4 x 1.9 inches. Here’s a picture of this model on a desk so you can get an idea of just how compact it truly is:

Look at the iPhone or the mouse for scale. It’s crazy how small this mini PC is!

Whether you’re working with Word files, browsing the web, streaming 4K movies, or working with a full-fledged video editing suite, the GEEKOM A5 Mini PC can handle it all. And right now, you can get this beast of a compact PC at its best price ever.

BGR readers can follow this link to the US store ($329) or this link to the UK store (£329) to get the exclusive deal. Just remember, this offer is only available until the end of the day on Tuesday, June 4.
