- Thunderobot Mix G2 offers 17% GPU increase over ROG NUC 2025
- Top configuration includes Core Ultra 9 275HX and RTX 5090 GPU
- Night Owl cooling system maintains high performance under sustained workloads
Chinese company Thunderobot has launched the Mix G2, a compact mini gaming PC positioned as a direct competitor to Asus’ ROG NUC 2025.
The system combines Intel Core Ultra HX processors with Nvidia RTX 50 laptop GPUs, delivering performance previously limited to full-sized desktops or mobile workstations.
The top configuration pairs a Core Ultra 9 275HX with a GeForce RTX 5090 laptop GPU, delivering up to 230W of total system power in a 3.2-liter chassis.
Compact size with Night Owl cooling
This device offers a 17% GPU performance improvement over the most powerful ROG NUC 2025, making it suitable for gaming and professional workloads.
At 332 × 212 × 45mm, the Mix G2 is slightly larger than the ROG NUC, but still compact enough for desktop or desktop use.
Its “Night Owl” cooling system integrates a large heatsink with dual fans covering both the CPU and GPU, supporting sustained high-performance workloads.
The case also features a backlit logo, blue light strip, and Penrose triangle-style power button, giving it a distinctive aesthetic.
Inside, the Mix G2 supports two DDR5 SO-DIMM slots and includes one PCIe 5.0 slot and one PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot.
Wireless connectivity comes from Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 modules, while the front I/O offers USB Type-A and Type-C ports as well as a 3.5mm audio jack.
The rear panel includes an RJ45 Ethernet port, HDMI 2.1, a 10Gbps USB-A port, and Thunderbolt 5 support.
These features allow the mini PC to function as a versatile hub comparable to business laptops or even smaller mobile workstations.
Three configurations of this device will be launched in China on November 20.
The Thunderobot Mix G2 starts at 14,999 RMB (~$2,110) for the Core Ultra 7 255HX with RTX 5070 Ti and 32 GB of RAM, and goes up to 18,999 RMB (~$2,670) for the Core Ultra 9 275HX with RTX 5080 and 32 GB of RAM.
The flagship model tops out at RMB 26,999 (~$3,790) with the Core Ultra 9 275HX, RTX 5090, and 64GB of RAM.
The Asus ROG NUC starts at less than $2,000, which could be a deal-breaker for buyers considering the Thunderobot Mix G2.
