At the end of the month, Medion will bring new hardware to the discounters Aldi Nord and Süd. Above all, two desktops and a notebook stand out for gamers who are supposed to meet the highest demands. The notebook combines AMD's mobile high-end CPUs with the GeForce RTX 3080, while the desktops use rare RTX cards.

Erazer Beast X25 with Ryzen 9 5900HX and RTX 3080

Medion positions the Erazer Beast X25 notebook as a desktop replacement. This comes with a 17.3-inch display with a correspondingly large footprint. In contrast, the overall height and weight are comparatively compact in view of the equipment. The case measures 395 × 262 × 26 mm (W × D × H).

The display has a Full HD resolution, uses IPS technology and offers a refresh rate of 240 Hz. The model is powered by an AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX (Cezanne). The 7 nm CPU offers eight cores with multithreading at a base clock of 3.30 GHz (maximum 4.60 GHz). The 5900HX represents the spearhead of the mobile Ryzen processors with 45 watt TDP. The processor is assisted by 64 GB DDR4 memory with a clock speed of 3,200 MHz.

The editors have requested more information and will update the article when more details are known.

Additional features include a 2 TB SSD (PCIe), Wi-Fi 6, an RGB-illuminated keyboard, a webcam with infrared for Windows Hello, a 6-cell battery with 91.2 Wh and pre-installed Windows 10 Home.

Erazer Engineer X10 with i7-11700 and RTX 3070

The Engineer X10 marks the entry point for desktops. Medion packs the Intel Core i7-11700 of the Rocket Lake-S generation in the In Win 301 (test). The CPU offers eight cores with 16 threads, the clock is 2.5 GHz (Turbo maximum 4.90 GHz). The processor can fall back on 32 GB DDR4-3200 and a 1 TB PCIe SSD for non-volatile data. For games, Medion installs a GeForce RTX 3070 (test) with 8 GB GDDR6 in the Engineer X10, which continues to shine on the open market with its lack of availability and high prices. The equipment also includes various USB connections, HDMI 2.1 and Windows 10 Home as the operating system.

Erazer Hunter X20 with i9-11900K and RTX 3080

Computing power comes from the Intel Core i9-11900K (test), Intel's top model in the Rocket Lake-S range. In the ComputerBase test, the processor impressed with its high gaming and application performance, but bought it with very high power consumption and high temperatures; the limitations of the 14 nm production become apparent. In the case of the X20, an Alphacool Eisbaer 240 takes over the cooling with water, which is ventilated by fans of the type In Win Saturn aRGB (120mm).

As in the Engineer X10, Medion also uses 32 GB DDR4-3200 in the large model, here of the Kingston HyperX Fury RGB type. A 1 TB SSD (PCIe) and a 4 TB HDD are available for non-volatile data. With the graphics card, Medion goes one step higher with the GeForce RTX 3080, but it is not known which specific model from which manufacturer is used. The hardware is installed on an MSI MPG Z490 Wi-Fi Edge, the power supply is provided by a Seasonic Focus GX-750. The case is an In Win 103.
