Beelink GTR9 Pro for local AI

The Beelink GTR9 Pro is a 128 GB Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 mini PC in a 180 x 180 mm metal case, with two 10 GbE ports, a 230 W power supply inside, a 3-year warranty, and a microphone array, speakers and a fingerprint reader built in.

$4,349, ships in about 35 days

One version: 128 GB, a 2 TB drive and Windows 11 Pro, on Beelink’s US store on 3 November 2026. Beelink opened orders at $1,985 in August 2025.

3 years of warranty

The longest standard cover of the 395 boxes we compare. Tom’s Hardware notes that most lower-cost Strix Halo boxes on Amazon give one year.

Two 10 GbE ports, with a catch

Owners and ServeTheHome report the Intel E610 ports crashing under heavy load, and Beelink says its fix has only partly helped.

GTR9 Pro specs: what is inside?

The Beelink GTR9 Pro runs AMD’s Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 with 128 GB of LPDDR5X-8000 at 256 GB/s, in an all-metal case of 180 x 180 x 91 mm and 2.3 kg with a 230 W supply built in.

GTR9 Pro ports and the 10 GbE problem

The back has two 10GBase-T ports on an Intel E610 chip, two 40 Gbps USB4 ports, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1 and two USB-A 3.2 ports; the front has an SD card reader, a 10 Gbps USB-C port and a headset jack. Owners and ServeTheHome report the E610 ports crashing under load, and Beelink’s forum notice says BIOS and driver updates only partly fix it; owners report BIOS P108 did not, and some turn the ports off. Beelink pitches the ports for linking several units, but has published no guide or results for it.

Microphones, speakers and a fingerprint reader

Beelink built in a four-microphone array with its own AI chip that picks up voices within 5 m, two DSP speakers, and a fingerprint reader in the power button. The USB4 ports drive four displays up to 8K60 but give no power to a laptop or monitor.

GTR9 Pro cooling and noise

Two blower fans push air from the bottom to the top through a vapor chamber and a 137 mm fin stack, at 120 W sustained and 140 W peak. Beelink claims 32 dB in normal use and about 37 dBA in games, and no lab has published its own dBA figure. The ServeTheHome reviewer called it the quietest of the four Strix Halo systems he had tested, while one reader reported 52 dBA on a unit he sent back.

Storage, and no PCIe slot

Two M.2 2280 slots at PCIe 4.0 x4 take up to 8 TB each. There is no PCIe slot or OCuLink port, so a graphics card can only sit outside the case on a USB4 port.

Which models fit in the GTR9 Pro 128 GB?

The GTR9 Pro’s 128 GB holds Qwen3.8-27B (15.2 GB), DeepSeek V4 Flash (101.5 GB) and Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (106.3 GB), one big model at a time; DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, at about 191 GB, does not fit.

How much of the 128 GB goes to the GPU?

Owners report the GTR9 Pro arrives with 96 GB set aside for graphics and 32 GB for the system. DeepSeek V4 Flash needs more than 96 GB, so on Linux raise the graphics share as AMD’s ROCm guide describes, and check which of Beelink’s two board revisions you have before you flash a BIOS.

How fast is the GTR9 Pro on 100B-class models?

The Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 inside the GTR9 Pro wrote DeepSeek V4 Flash at 41.9 tok/s with drafting in our lab and 30.75 tok/s without it on LocalMaxxing, and Qwen3.8-27B at 104.32 tok/s with drafting on LocalMaxxing. These were run on other boxes with the same chip; the rest are in the full Strix Halo speed table.

GTR9 Pro price history

Beelink opened orders in August 2025 at $1,985, marked down from $2,399, and ServeTheHome wrote in October 2025 that it often sold for $1,999 or less. The price on 3 November 2026 is more than twice that. Prices in older reviews and Reddit threads date from before the rise.

Is there a GTR9 Pro with the PRO 495?

Beelink launched a GTR9 Pro 495 in China at about $4,470, per Guru3D, still with 128 GB at most but on faster LPDDR5X-8533. No sale outside China has been announced.

Beelink GTR9 Pro alternatives

For the GTR9 Pro’s money, the GMKtec EVO-X2 is the closest box on the same chip and the Lucebox Zero 495 adds an R9700 graphics card to a newer AMD chip. All the machines we compare are on the hub.

Lucebox Zero 495, 128 GB

  • Holds DeepSeek V4 Flash (101.5 GB) across the 32 GB card and 128 GB of unified memory.
  • Writes it at 51.1 tok/s on our earlier 395 build, drafting on (our lab).
  • $5,999, right at your budget.

Also consider

GMKtec EVO-X2, 128 GB

  • Holds DeepSeek V4 Flash (101.5 GB) in 128 GB of unified memory.
  • Writes it at 41.9 tok/s on another box with the same chip, drafting on (our lab).
  • $3,500, $2,499 under your budget.

We make the Lucebox. It is ranked by the same rule as every other row; a run marked “on our earlier 395 build” comes from the previous Lucebox, with the same R9700 card.

Beelink GTR9 Pro review: who should buy one?

The Beelink GTR9 Pro suits someone who wants a 128 GB Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 box on the desk for years: it has the longest warranty of the group, no power brick, and microphones and speakers for calls.

Buy one if

  • You want 3 years of warranty on a 395 box.
  • You will use it at your desk for calls as well as models: microphones, speakers and a fingerprint reader are built in.
  • You want no power brick on the floor: the 230 W supply sits inside the case.

Look elsewhere if

  • You need both 10 GbE ports to stay up under heavy traffic today: owners report crashes that Beelink has only partly fixed.
  • You want the 128 GB box on this chip at the lowest price: the GMKtec EVO-X2 was $3,500.
  • You want a PCIe slot as well as 10 GbE: see GTR9 Pro vs MS-S1 MAX.
  • You need it this week: Beelink quotes about 35 days to ship.

GTR9 Pro vs Lucebox Zero 495: where each fits

Next to the GTR9 Pro, the Lucebox Zero 495 is a larger, dearer workstation: AMD’s newer PRO 495 chip plus a 32 GB R9700 graphics card, faster on the models that fit on that card.

We make the Lucebox Zero 495, so read this box as ours.

Where it fits

  • Qwen3.8-27B on the R9700 card: 303.38 tok/s with drafting on a short code prompt (36.7 without) on LocalMaxxing, 2.9x the 395 chip in the GTR9 Pro on the same engine and file (2.6x without drafting).
  • DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, which the GTR9 Pro’s 128 GB cannot hold: the 192 GB Lucebox wrote it at 33 tok/s with a 32K prompt.
  • Two models loaded together, one on the card and one in the unified memory.

Where it doesn't

  • The GTR9 Pro costs less: $4,349 against $5,999 for 128 GB.
  • You want two 10 GbE ports and 3 years of cover; the Lucebox has one 10 GbE port and 1 year.
  • You want a small box: the GTR9 Pro is 2.3 kg, the Lucebox 6 kg.
