MINISFORUM UM680/UM760/UM870 Slim

The MINISFORUM UM680, UM760, and UM870 Slim are the same compact chassis sold with three different AMD Ryzen chips. The UM680 Slim uses the Ryzen 7 6800H (Radeon 680M), the UM760 Slim the Ryzen 5 7640HS (Radeon 760M), and the UM870 Slim the Ryzen 7 8745H (Radeon 780M), the fastest of the three.

All three share the rest of the spec: 16GB or 32GB of DDR5 (expandable to 96GB across two SODIMM slots), dual M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSD slots with RAID 0/1, and display output over HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB4 (which also supports an eGPU). Networking is Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and a 2.5GbE port. The reviews below cover the UM760 and UM870 sub-models, plus written feedback from Amazon owners.

Design and Expansion

All three Slim models share one roughly 5-inch-square, 1.48-pound plastic chassis with a VESA bracket in the box. Cooling uses copper heatsinks and low-RPM fans that stay quiet in normal use, though the fans get louder in the UM870’s performance mode. The two M.2 PCIe 4.0 slots take up to 4TB with RAID 0 or RAID 1, and the DDR5 runs on two SODIMM slots to 96GB. The trade-offs reviewers and owners flag are the plastic build, the lean port set (no SD reader, a couple of USB 2.0 ports), and disassembly made fiddly by glued-on feet.

What Reviewers Found

ETA PRIME on the UM870 Slim

ETA PRIME found the UM870 Slim (Ryzen 7 8745H) a strong 1080p gaming box, getting smooth frame rates in Overwatch 2, Red Dead Redemption, and Forza Horizon at medium settings, with noise staying under 35 dB even under load. He liked the silver finish (a change from the usual black Minisforum boxes) and the USB4 port. He said the 8745H is a good deal but does not match the pricier HX370-based mini PCs (for example the MINISFORUM AI X1 Pro), which carry more cores at a higher price. He called it a budget pick for gaming and multitasking.

Family Pop TV on the UM760 Slim

Family Pop TV held playable frame rates in Forza Horizon at 1080p and 2K on the UM760 Slim, and credited it for light gaming and video editing. Family Pop TV called it a versatile and affordable option for gamers and creators, competitive for everyday tasks at its price. The design is functional rather than flashy, and the included VESA bracket puts the box behind a monitor. Family Pop TV also found the machine cool-running and quiet, but ruled out 4K gaming as beyond its performance.

ETA PRIME on the UM760 Slim

In a separate video, ETA PRIME recorded competitive Geekbench and 3DMark scores on the UM760 Slim, plus smooth performance in Fallout 4 and Cyberpunk 2077 at 900p or 1080p with FSR enabled. He rated its gaming, emulation, and general productivity value excellent, and said the plastic chassis keeps costs down without hurting build quality. The USB 4 port takes an eGPU, which is the only route past the integrated Radeon. He wanted an SD card reader. He summed the UM760 Slim up as a capable Mini PC at an affordable price.

Robtech on the UM760 Slim

Robtech found the UM760 Slim’s GPU slightly behind the previous-generation Radeon 680M in some benchmarks, while the CPU handled multitasking, emulation, and even 4K video editing. The chassis is all plastic, and he flagged the glued-on rubber feet and tightly secured panels as inconvenient for upgrades. He also pointed out a couple of USB 2.0 ports in the port set. For buyers who don’t need high-end gaming performance but still want a capable, compact Mini PC, Robtech called it a strong mid-range option and good value.

Chase Brogan on the UM760 Slim

Chase Brogan called the UM760 Slim a “powerhouse mini PC” for its size and price. He said it handles retro game emulation, AAA gaming, and video editing on the AMD Ryzen 5 7640HS processor and Radeon 760M graphics, and he rated it an easy recommendation for gamers and creators. He liked the compact design, the included VESA mount, and the internal layout for upgrades. He asked for a front USB-C port: “I’d like to see a USB-C port here on the front, but it’s not a deal breaker for me.”

Robtech on the UM870 Slim

The Ryzen 7 8745H came close to higher-end AMD parts in single-core and multi-core benchmarks in Robtech’s testing, and he rated the UM870 Slim’s CPU and GPU performance strong for the price. Gaming holds up at 1080p low settings, though newer AAA titles may require FSR for acceptable frame rates. He praised the USB 4 eGPU support and the Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, and called the machine cost-effective for its performance at that size. He complained about the fan noise in performance mode and the difficult disassembly.

Customer Reviews

Amazon pools the owner reviews across this product family (the same listing has carried different sub-models over time), so the star average is not a reliable number for any one configuration. A verified buyer, kdp, edited 360 dual-sport footage in DaVinci Resolve on the Ryzen 7 6800H (UM680) and reported that “the speed of the 6800 is fine for our purposes, and the onboard graphics can handle the simple editing also,” while upgrading to 32GB of RAM and noting that “w11 is wonky sometimes.”

Verified buyer Gary Byron titled his review “Fast but…” and wrote that the “Unit is fast, but lacks WIFI, and while supporting a 2nd NMVe drive, lacks a SATA drive interface,” noting it shipped with only one memory stick installed (the second slot open) and calling it a “mixed bag here…” Minisforum also sells the chassis barebone, so a listing can arrive without the memory, storage, or wireless card the full spec sheet lists. Read the owner reviews on Amazon directly, and confirm the exact processor and configuration of the listing you are buying, since Minisforum sells several sub-models under the same Amazon listings.

Quiet and upgradable, with the UM760 as the value pick

These Slim models fit home-office users, casual gamers, and creators working at 1080p or 2K who want a quiet, compact box with room to grow. Socketed DDR5 to 96GB and two M.2 slots keep them upgradable, while many rivals at this price fall into the soldered RAM trap that locks buyers into their launch configuration. Pick the UM760 (Ryzen 5 7640HS) for the best value, or the UM870 (Ryzen 7 8745H) if you want the most CPU and GPU headroom.

Skip the series if you need out-of-the-box 4K gaming or heavy workflows, since the integrated Radeon graphics are the ceiling (a USB4 eGPU is the only way past it), and if you want a metal build or a richer front-panel port set. To compare models, use Starry Hope’s Mini PC Comparison Chart.
