As the title says. I'm in the market for a new Mini PC and I've been looking at the Ryzen mobile chips and their integrated graphics. I feel like I've been scouring for hours doing research and I've landed on these two, the Beelink SER9 Pro with the Ryzen H 255 and the Minisforum (updated) UM790 Pro with the Ryzen 9 7940HS.

The price difference is a negligible, and I'm not concerned about storage. What I am looking for more input on are the processors and RAM.

The Beelink has LPDDR5X 6400 MT/s. Its soldered, but the amount is perfectly fine for what I intend to use this for. I know the 780M would benefit from the faster RAM speed, but the H 255 has the 780M clocked lower at 2600 MHz. The H 255 is also clocked lower but the graphics are the bottleneck, so it shouldn't be a concern.

The Minisforum uses standard RAM modules and they max out at 5600 MT/s, but the 7940HS has the full 2800 MHz for the 780M. The 7940HS maxes out at 5.2GHz as well.

What I need help with is if the 6400 MT/s would have a larger benefit on performance in game than the 200MHz on the 780M? Basically, at this price point and only these two machines, which of these two would be the better pick to eke out the most performance?
