Press Release: MINISFORUM today announced their UM560 mini PC, which is listed in their new mini PC series, the Venus series, to provide ultimate performance and work flexibility with AMD Ryzen 5 5625U processor and Radeon Graphics. UM560 is the first AMD mini PC with Alt-Mode USB-C and the world’s first mini PC that comes with a GaN power supply. It is a multi-purpose mini-computer designed for use in a variety of solutions, such as a home office, media center/HTPC, printer management PC, digital signage, or mass-deployment enterprise IT solution.

The AMD Ryzen 5 5625U is a 15W processor manufactured on the modern 7nm TSMC process. It has 6 cores and 12 threads with a base clock 2.3GHz and a boost clock 4.3GHz. It has 16MB of L3 cache. The APU also comes with an AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 integrated graphics card with 7 CUs at up to 1800MHz.

The computer body is only 12.8cm long, 12.66cm wide, and 4.65cm tall. It supports totally up to 64Gb of DDR4 dual-channel memory. It has one M.2 2280 PCIe slot and one 2.5-inch SATA HDD slot for storage expansion (SATA 3.0 6.0Gb/s).

Four monitors can be connected at the same time to the Minisforum UM560 Venus Mini PC using 2xHDMI ports and 2xUSB-C ports. One of the USB-C ports on the back of the computer supports ALT-Mode. Alt-Mode allows USB-C ports to transfer data/video via multiple interfaces, including the increasingly popular DisplayPort video interface. If the monitor support USB PD (USB Power Delivery), users can use this port to power the computer and transfer video signal to the monitor at the same time which makes the whole setup cleaner.
