My reviews of products, tools, and everything in between.https://reviews.bbhoss.io/https://reviews.bbhoss.io/reviews/gmktec-evo-t2s/https://reviews.bbhoss.io/reviews/gmktec-evo-t2s/The EVO-T2S is the first mini PC built on Intel's 18A process, and as a general-purpose machine it's excellent: 16 modern cores, 10GbE + 2.5GbE, OCuLink, dual USB4, and official Linux support in a 54W box. As a local AI machine it's good-but-bounded, and the boundary is exactly one number: ~136 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Modern sparse MoE models are built for precisely this constraint, and on those it delivers a consistent, genuinely usable 31–36 tokens/sec. Dense models pay full price. The "AI SSD" is, as shipped, a marketing designation — nothing on the system uses it. Buy it for what it measurably does, not for the AI branding.Sat, 11 Jul 2026 04:00:00 GMT
