The Ultimate Active Cooling and WiFi Signal Upgrade for High-Performance GEEKOM A7, A8, and A9 Max Mini PCs.
Eliminate thermal throttling and heat-induced crashes with the custom-engineered Active Cooling Base. This precision 3D-printed solution solves the "heat-soak" issues common in RAM and NVMe SSDs by forcing constant, active airflow through the chassis.
Paired with our optional high-gain antenna system, this is the definitive performance overhaul for your GEEKOM workstation.
***KEY BENEFITS:
INTEGRATED ACTIVE COOLING: Features a built-in, silent 80x10mm USB fan providing direct-strike airflow to the high-stress RAM and NVMe SSD zones. This targets the primary heat-soak source that the stock GEEKOM chassis leaves uncooled.
15°C COMPONENT TEMPERATURE DROP: Proven to reduce NVMe and RAM thermals by an average of 15°C. By keeping these components cool, you eliminate the "heat-saturated" conditions that lead to data errors and system-wide instability.
TOTAL THERMAL RECOVERY: While the fan targets the bottom-side, the resulting reduction in PCB heat-soak provides massive thermal headroom for the APU/Chipset on the opposite side. This allows the entire system to shed heat more effectively, preventing the thermal throttling that kills performance.
MISSION-CRITICAL STABILITY: Specifically engineered to stop heat-induced crashes. This is a vital upgrade for power users, video editors, and gamers who demand 100% stability and peak clock speeds during sustained, heavy productivity sessions.
PRO-GRADE CONNECTIVITY: Precision-molded with integrated internal routing channels to accommodate stock antennas or our upgraded 8dBi leads for a clean, snag-free installation.
Exclusively engineered for the GEEKOM A7 Max, A8 Max, and A9 Max chassis.
IMPORTANT: This base fits the larger 135mm x 132mm "Max" series housing. It is NOT compatible with the standard (smaller) A7, A8, or A9 models, as those utilize a significantly smaller 112mm footprint with different mounting points.
***COOLING SYSTEM:
Integrated high-efficiency, quiet 80x10mm USB-powered fan (plugs directly into rear USB port).
***ANTENNA OPTIONS (CHOOSE FROM DROPDOWN):
NO - REUSE INTERNAL: Includes cooling base and fan. You will transfer your original factory antennas to the new base using the integrated internal mounting points.
YES - INTERNAL 8DBI: Includes high-gain 2.4GHz/5.8GHz dual-band antennas. These come PRE-INSTALLED and cleanly routed through built-in cable channels designed into the base for a sleek, hidden look.
YES - EXTERNAL 8DBI: Includes dual 8dBi Omni-directional antennas. Cables are pre-routed through dedicated internal channels and secured tightly to gold-plated leads. Simply screw on the antennas upon receipt for maximum signal penetration.
***INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
PREP: Remove the four rubber feet and corner screws (keep screws for reassembly). Set aside the stock plastic bottom plate; it is no longer used.
INTERNAL FRAME: Un-tape and unscrew the two stock WiFi antennas. Remove the four screws on the internal metal frame and set it aside; this frame is no longer used.
***ANTENNA SETUP:
IF REUSING STOCK: Peel the double-sided tape and place antennas near the "ANTENNA 1" and "ANTENNA 2" inscriptions. Utilize the built-in routing channels to keep cables clear of the fan and internal components.
IF UPGRADING (8DBI KITS): Your antennas arrive PRE-MOUNTED and professionally routed through the base's integrated channels. To connect, unscrew the M.2 SSD and lift the clear WiFi module cover. Swap the stock connectors for the new ones.
NOTE: Use the "M.2 KEY WI-FI" inscription inside the base to perfectly align your cable slack. Apply gentle pressure until they snap firmly into place, then replace the cover and SSD.
***FINAL MOUNT:
Align the side inscribed "BACK" with the rear ports of the PC. Secure the base into place using your four original factory screws.
POWER: Plug the fan into any available rear USB port.
PRO TIP: For maximum thermal efficiency, ensure your PC is placed on a hard, flat surface to allow the base fan to pull fresh air without restriction.
***NOTE: This is a 3D-printed performance accessory; the GEEKOM Mini PC is not included. Each unit is printed with high-strength material and may display minor surface variations—a hallmark of the manufacturing process.
