Minisforum T5 Max-388 lists at $1,559 with AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388 and 48 GB RAM

Minisforum has now put its T5 Max-388 mini PC on sale in the US. These tiny PCs are a great way to get your hands on the latest in high-end mobile APU from AMD. This is significant as it gives consumers a taste of what all the Ryzen AI Max+ 388 has to offer in a small form factor without compromising on processing muscle. This means anyone who wants a high-end home server or a mini-game PC now has a solid option to aim for.

Mini PC features AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388 APU and 48 GB soldered RAM

The star of the T5 Max-388 is the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388 APU which includes the Radeon 8060S iGPU right on the chip. This opens the door to performing heavy tasks while occupying much less space than a full-tower PC. The system is using soldered RAM as opposed to user-upgradeable DIMMs, which makes it more straightforward on the inside, but makes it harder to expand in the future.

Specifications

• Processor: AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 388
• Graphics: Radeon 8060S
• Memory: 48 GB LPDDR5 6400 MT/s
• Storage: 1 TB SSD
• Price: $1,559

The system comes with 48 GB of LPDDR5 RAM clocked at 6400 MT/s and a 1 TB SSD. The AMD chip also contains the Radeon 8060S iGPU. The power supply is rated at 350 W to keep up with the heavy demands of the system. The system offers a wide range of connectivity options with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, 2.5 Gbps Ethernet, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1, USB4 ports and more.

The T5 Max-388 will retail for $1,559 in the US. The first shipments are expected in early December 2026. There are some differences between the US listing and the one on the Hong Kong store when it comes to RAM type, port options, and size.

The US store page mentions LPDDR5 RAM and a single USB4 port. The Hong Kong listing mentions LPDDR5x RAM and dual USB4 ports.

This makes it seem like there are some differences in the regional specs or even the final product they will produce. According to the US store, the T5 Max-388 has a footprint of 225x96x228 mm while the Hong Kong page mentions 230x93x288 mm. So, before buying, make sure to double-check which ports and memory speeds you're getting. The system you end up with might not match the initial listing online.
