Looking for the best value mini PC deal for Prime Day - then this is it. The GMKtec K13 just dropped to $540 (was $950) at Amazon.

I've checked, and that's its lowest ever price. I was price-checking my live Prime Day home office deals hub when I spotted the change - previously it was priced at $570 before it got the new $540 tag.

The system itself comes equipped with Intel Ultra 7 256V process, 16GB LPDDR5, and 512GB SSD that's expandable up to a massive 16TB thanks to dual Gen4 NVMe slots. When we benchmarked the AI mini PC in our review, we found it "a thoughtfully engineered slice of modern computing" that showcases the best of what Intel does.

During tests, the K13 from the ever reliable GMKtec proved to be a powerful little system, especially for local AI. It's a uniquely portable and compact design, too, coming in a rectangle rather than the usual square box.

In my guide to the best mini PCs, I included the K13 in the 'Also Tested category, where I highlighted its particular excellence as a mini PC for local AI and data speeds. The system is capable of 115 TOPS total AI.

There's also an ultra-fast 5 GbE LAN port and dual USB4 ports capable of daisy-chaining accessories like eGPUs, storage arrays, and capture cards.

With the RAM soldered to the board, expandability it limited to the storage - which supports dual 8TB lanes. Still, for anyone who needs 16TB total SSD capacity, this is golden.

In the final verdict of our review, we said: "if your use case is modern, efficiency-focused desktop computing, perhaps content creation, AI experimentation, clean-desk professional work, or a powerful behind-monitor media machine, then K13 makes a compelling argument. There is plenty to like here, and relatively few reasons to avoid this machine, not least the price."

Doubly so now the K13 hits a new low $540. I don't expect this one to stay at that price for long.
