Clink-X xCraft is a mini PC with a modular, customizable design
Most desktop PCs are modular by nature: you can remove and replace memory, storage, and even the processor and motherboard. But small desktop PCs often sacrifice some of that versatility in order to take up less space. So while many mini PCs have user-replaceable memory and/or storage, you’re usually stuck with the other hardware that comes with your system.
The Clink-X xCraft is a modular mini PC that takes a different approach. Expected to ship as a DIY kit that lets you snap a chassis together around a set of key components, it should be a snap (literally) to swap out components including fans, memory, storage, and even the case itself. Theoretically you could even upgrade the motherboard… assuming the company behind this mini PC continues to offer compatible upgrades in the future.
WinFuture’s Roland Quandt got a look at a pre-release version of the hardware at CES 2025, and reports that manufacturer Emdoor plans to launch a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign in March with barebones models priced around $500.
