NZXT Launches H2 Mini PC with 9800X3D and Intel 285K Configurations

NZXT has expanded its compact PC offerings with the launch of the H2 Mini PC, featuring high-performance AMD and Intel configurations, alongside new components for DIY builders. The H2 Mini PC comes equipped with either an AMD Ryzen 9 9800X3D or Intel Core 285K processor, paired with Gigabyte motherboards and RTX 5080 graphics.

H2 Mini PC Specifications

The pre-built H2 Mini PC offers two distinct configurations:

AMD Configuration:

Market Positioning

NZXT's H2 lineup represents a strategic move into the growing compact gaming PC segment. By offering both pre-built and DIY options, the company caters to different customer segments while maintaining its premium brand positioning.

The choice of high-end components like the 9800X3D and 285K processors, paired with RTX 5080 graphics, positions the H2 Mini PC as a premium offering in the compact gaming space. The separate release of the H2 Flow case and C850 SFX power supply also allows NZXT to capture DIY builders who want to create their own compact systems using the company's design language and quality standards.

All three products are available immediately through NZXT's retail channels, marking the company's most comprehensive entry into the compact PC market to date.
