MINISFORUM UM680/UM760/UM870 Slim

Updated on January 26, 2026

The MINISFORUM UM680, UM760, and UM870 Slim are the same compact chassis sold with three different AMD Ryzen chips, so you pick the one that matches your budget and performance needs. 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 notes below come from trusted-channel reviews of the UM760 and UM870 sub-models, plus the page’s own Amazon owner reviews; each reviewer is matched to the exact sub-model they tested.

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

Reviewing the UM870 Slim (Ryzen 7 8745H), ETA PRIME found it 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. His framing of the trade-off was that the 8745H is great value 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. His take: a well-rounded budget pick for gaming and multitasking.

Family Pop TV on the UM760 Slim

Family Pop TV provides a detailed look at the UM760 Slim, describing it as a versatile and budget-friendly option for gamers and creators. The reviewer highlights its ability to handle light gaming and video editing, with games like Forza Horizon maintaining playable frame rates at 1080p and 2K resolutions. While the design is functional rather than flashy, the compact build and included VESA mount makes it practical for space-saving setups. The UM760 Slim’s efficient thermal management and quiet operation are also praised, though the reviewer notes that 4K gaming is not viable due to performance limitations. Overall, Family Pop TV finds the UM760 Slim a strong contender for users seeking a Mini PC that balances affordability with solid performance for everyday tasks.

ETA PRIME on the UM760 Slim

In another review, ETA PRIME examines the UM760 Slim and emphasizes its excellent gaming, emulation, and general productivity value. He notes that while the plastic chassis keeps costs down, the build quality is sufficient for its purpose. The UM760 Slim performs well in benchmarks, with competitive scores in Geekbench and 3DMark tests. Gaming tests reveal smooth performance in titles like Fallout 4 and Cyberpunk 2077 at 900p or 1080p with FSR enabled. Including USB 4 for eGPU support is a major advantage, allowing users to enhance graphical performance if needed. However, ETA PRIME mentions the lack of an SD card reader as a minor drawback. He concludes that the UM760 Slim is a versatile and capable Mini PC for users seeking strong performance at an affordable price.

Robtech on the UM760 Slim

Robtech provides a balanced review of the UM760 Slim, praising its solid CPU performance and value for money. He highlights its ability to handle multitasking, emulation, and even 4K video editing, though he notes that GPU performance is slightly behind the previous-generation Radeon 680M in some benchmarks. The all-plastic chassis is functional but not premium, and Robtech finds the glued-on rubber feet and tightly secured panels inconvenient for upgrades. He also points out that the port selection is adequate but not exceptional, noting a couple of USB 2.0 ports among them. Despite these drawbacks, Robtech concludes that the UM760 Slim is a strong mid-range option for users who don’t require high-end gaming performance but still need a capable and compact Mini PC.

Chase Brogan on the UM760 Slim

Chase Brogan is highly positive about the UM760 Slim, calling it a “powerhouse mini PC” for its size and price. He praises its ability to easily handle retro game emulation, AAA gaming, and video editing, thanks to the AMD Ryzen 5 7640HS processor and Radeon 760M graphics. He liked the compact design, the included VESA mount, and the internal layout for upgrades, and his one real wish was 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.” Overall he rated it an easy recommendation for gamers, creators, and anyone wanting a small, capable Mini PC.

Robtech on the UM870 Slim

In his review of the UM870 Slim, Robtech highlights its strong CPU and GPU performance, particularly for its price point. He notes that the Ryzen 7 8745H delivers near top-tier benchmark results, rivaling higher-end AMD chips in single-core and multi-core tasks. The UM870 Slim performs well in gaming at 1080p low settings, though newer AAA titles may require FSR for acceptable frame rates. Robtech appreciates the inclusion of USB 4 for eGPU support and the reliable Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, but he criticizes the fan noise in performance mode and the challenging disassembly process. Despite these drawbacks, he concludes that the UM870 Slim is cost-effective for users seeking solid performance in a compact form factor.

Customer Reviews of the MINISFORUM UM680/UM760/UM870 Slim

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 and is left out here. The handful of written reviews are useful qualitatively, and they share a pattern: the machine is genuinely fast, but each owner named a hardware caveat. 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.”

The caveats are worth weighing. 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…” Read the owner reviews on Amazon directly, and confirm the exact processor and configuration of the listing you are buying, since Minisforum reuses these ASINs across sub-models.

Conclusion: Who Should Consider the MINISFORUM UM680/UM760/UM870 Slim Series?

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. The headline strength is expandability: socketed DDR5 to 96GB and two M.2 slots, where a growing number of 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. One practical note when buying: Minisforum reuses these Amazon ASINs across sub-models, so confirm the exact processor on the listing before you order.
