Great news for those shopping for a new mini PCBlack Friday has arrived at Amazon, and there are a couple of AceMagic mini PCs enjoying steep discounts.

AceMagic Mini Gaming PC
Core i9-13900HK
Save 30% ($257)
AceMagic Mini Gaming PC: was $856 now $599 at Amazon


AceMagic's Mini Gaming PC with an Intel Core i9-13900HK CPU has the juice to run lighter games, and it'll absolutely crush any homework, streaming, browsing, and productivity tasks. Port selection is generous, and you can upgrade the RAM and storage after purchase.

AceMagic M1 Mini PC
Core i9-11900H
Save 43% ($340)
AceMagic M1 Mini PC: was $799.99 now $459.99 at Amazon


AceMagic's M1 mini PC has an Intel Core i9-11900H CPU, 32GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD, giving you plenty of performance for everyday productivity tasks, web browsing, email, and streaming. Give the code "O9WQI9VY" a shot at checkout for another 10% off the sale price.

Mini PCs have become all the rage lately, and PC users are finding that they really don't need a full-size desktop with an inflated price when they can get so much power from a tiny box next to a monitor.

Although AceMagic's Mini Gaming PC is, well, labeled as a gaming PC, it's best to temper expectations. There's no discrete graphics card in this mini PC. Instead, it relies on the integrated graphics that come with the Intel Core i9-13900HK processor (CPU).

It's an Intel Iris Xe chip that can do a solid job of running competitive titles — Counter-Strike 2, Fortnite, Apex Legends, DOTA 2, etc. — as well as lighter games like Minecraft or Roblox. If you're hoping to run something like Cyberpunk 2077 with high settings, you'll quickly find the chip's limitations.

The Core i9 CPU is going to make short work of any productivity tasks, especially with 32GB of RAM on board as support. Storage is also a non-issue, as the PC comes with 1TB installed with the ability to upgrade after purchase.

Port selection is also quite generous, and you shouldn't have any problems connecting all your accessories and screens. It has six USB-A 3.2 (Gen 2), USB4, 2.5Gb Ethernet, DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

The regular price of $856 has been cut down to $599 at Amazon for a limited time, and it's the PC that I recommend to most users. However, those hoping to spend less can certainly enjoy what the AceMagic M1 has to offer, especially when it's only $459.99.
