BOSGAME M5 Max Packs 192GB of RAM for $6,199
BOSGAME has opened orders for the M5 Max, a mini PC built around AMD’s Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 with 192GB of soldered memory. It undercuts AMD’s own 192GB Ryzen AI Halo, but ships with no date and no noise or heat data yet.
In short
The BOSGAME M5 Max costs $6,199 with 192GB of memory and a 2TB SSD, about $1,100 less than AMD’s $7,299 Ryzen AI Halo. The chip is the same class, so the question is whether the cooling and support hold up. Wait for noise, heat and warranty details before ordering.
What BOSGAME announced
A compact workstation with the Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495, 192GB of soldered memory and an OCuLink port, priced at $6,199.
TechRadar reports a 2TB PCIe 4.0 SSD with one free M.2 2280 slot, two USB-C ports rated up to 40Gbps, DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, two 10GbE ports, Wi-Fi 7 and an OCuLink 4i connector. It has three fans. According to TechRadar, orders are open, but BOSGAME has not published a shipping date, thermal figures or noise measurements.
| Machine | Chip | Memory | Price | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BOSGAME M5 Max | Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 | 192GB | $6,199 | TechRadar, Nov 8 |

What the chip offers
A 16-core, 32-thread processor with 40 graphics compute units, up to 192GB of unified memory and up to 160GB usable as video memory.
HotHardware lists AMD’s figures for the platform: boost up to 5.2GHz, a Radeon 8065S with 40 compute units, 55 TOPS from the NPU and LPDDR5X-8533 memory. AMD says it runs models of more than 300 billion parameters at 4-bit. These are AMD’s claims, not independent tests, and TechRadar describes the BOSGAME memory only as LPDDR5, so confirm the exact type before buying. Memory is soldered, so the capacity you buy is the capacity you keep.
What it means for buyers
This is a niche purchase for people who already know they need models that do not fit in 128GB; everyone else should look at cheaper tiers.
My daily PC is a GMKtec K8 Plus with a Ryzen 7 8845HS and Radeon 780M. I tried local AI on it and found it too weak, so I understand the pull toward more memory. At about $32 per gigabyte (our arithmetic: $6,199 divided by 192GB), this is still a professional tool, not a home upgrade, in a year when memory prices keep climbing. Our analysis of AMD’s 192GB Ryzen AI Halo covers the reference design, and our guide to the best mini PCs for local AI compares the 128GB machines that suit most people. For the other extreme, see Apple’s $22,299 512GB Mac Studio. Current offers are on our mini PC deals page.
