GEEKOM has two configurations of the AE8, with the only difference being a slightly less powerful Ryzen 7 CPU with half the storage (512GB). This knocks $90 off the price compared to the $799 (MSRP) Ryzen 9 configuration. In both instances, a Windows 11 Pro license is also pre-loaded.

The packaging is completely white, with the AE8 sitting in a foam cushion above a small envelope that contains a Thank you card and booklet that has guidance on all of the controls, how to access the AE8 to swap out the SSD or memory, and safety information in several European languages. Upon removing the foam cushion, you can find a cardboard compartment that contains the power lead, HDMI cable, VESA plate, and a bag of screws.
