Despite the 495‑processor being highlighted as the engine for local 300‑billion‑parameter AI, tech‑insider.org reports a Ryzen AI Max PRO 400 achieving the same 300B LLM run on 192 GB memory. wccftech.com first detailed that AMD’s Ryzen AI MAX+ PRO 495 powers GMKtec’s EVO‑X5 PRO to run 300B+ models on a unified 192 GB pool. Tom's Hardware announced at IFA 2026 that Minisforum’s AI Agent NAS N5 and AI Mini Workstation MS‑S1 use the 495 chip for on‑device inference.
TechPowerUp noted Acemagic’s F2A and F7A mini PCs offering both Intel “Panther Lake” and AMD “Gorgon Point” options, while igor´sLAB pointed out pricing up to €8,000 for Gorgon‑Halo units equipped with 192 GB RAM. Coverage shows multiple manufacturers adopting the Ryzen AI 495 (and possibly the Max PRO 400) to deliver local inference for models exceeding 300 billion parameters, with 192 GB unified memory becoming a benchmark spec.
