G1 RTX 4060 Mini PC - Compact Water-Cooled i9 Gaming Desktop

In this review the G1 RTX 4060 Mini PC is judged as a high-performance compact desktop for gamers and creators who need desktop-class graphics in a tiny chassis. The single biggest reason to consider it is the combination of an Intel Core i9-13900HK and an RTX 4060 mobile GPU inside a water-cooled mini chassis, which delivers sustained performance for gaming, 3D work, and 8K playback without the bulk of a tower. It arrives with Windows 11 Pro and a sensible set of I/O that makes it ready for both home and studio use.

Key Features

• RTX 4060 Mobile: Provides desktop-capable ray tracing and DLSS 3 acceleration so demanding titles run smoothly at high settings.
• Intel Core i9-13900HK: A 14-core, 20-thread CPU with up to 5.4GHz turbo that speeds through multithreaded editing and gaming scenarios.
• Advanced liquid cooling: Pure copper heatsink and dual silent fans keep CPU and GPU temperatures low for sustained heavy loads and quieter operation.
• Expandable storage and memory: Up to 4TB of combined expansion with M.2 and 2.5in SATA slots plus DDR5 dual-channel memory upgradable to 64GB.
• OCuLink eGPU support: The OCuLink port enables external GPU expansion to boost graphics performance beyond the internal mobile RTX 4060.
• Rich connectivity: Fifteen ports including eight USB, HDMI 2.0, 2.5G LAN and Wi-Fi 6E cover gaming, streaming and peripheral needs.

Who It's For

The G1 is aimed at gamers who want near-desktop GPU performance in a compact form factor and creators who need a powerful CPU/GPU mix for video editing or 3D work without dedicating a full tower. Its quiet liquid cooling and small footprint make it well suited for desks, apartments, and shared spaces where cooling and noise matter.

It is less appropriate for users who need fully desktop-class, upgradeable GPUs internally (the internal GPU is a mobile RTX 4060) or for those who expect hot-swappable external GPU setups, since the OCuLink port does not support hot-swapping and external GPU use requires a powered eGPU enclosure.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High sustained performance thanks to the i9-13900HK and liquid cooling, which keeps thermals stable during long sessions.
• Strong graphics for a mini PC with RTX 4060 mobile, DLSS 3 and ray tracing support for modern games.
• Flexible expansion with M.2 and 2.5in SATA slots plus upgradable DDR5 memory and many ports for peripherals.
• Compact design with real-time display and RGB lighting that fits tight spaces without sacrificing connectivity.

Cons

• Internal GPU is mobile-class; users seeking full desktop GPU power will need an eGPU via OCuLink and an external enclosure.
• OCuLink does not support hot-swapping, which adds complexity to external GPU workflows.

Our Verdict

The G1 RTX 4060 Mini PC is a smart choice for gamers and content creators who need a compact machine that punches above its size. It pairs a high-end i9 mobile CPU with an RTX 4060 mobile GPU and robust liquid cooling to deliver sustained performance and low noise in tight spaces. For anyone who values upgrade paths and connectivity in a small footprint, it represents strong value, though users wanting full desktop GPU power will need an external eGPU setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the G1 support internal GPU upgrades?
Answer. The internal GPU is a mobile RTX 4060 and is not a typical user-replaceable desktop card; external GPU expansion is available via OCuLink.

Is the cooling system quiet and effective?
Answer. Yes; the liquid cooling system with a copper heatsink and dual silent fans is designed to keep thermals low and noise modest under sustained loads.

What expansion options are available?
Answer. The G1 supports M.2 2242 and a 2.5in SATA drive for storage expansion, DDR5 memory upgradable to 64GB, and eGPU via OCuLink for added graphics power.
