ASUS debuts small form factor gaming PC

There are certain cases when you want to have a powerful gaming computer that can be taken anywhere yet you do not want to purchase a gaming notebook. If this is your case then ASUS has got you covered thanks to an innovative new gaming PC called ROG GR8.

As the brand name of the product suggests the new gaming PC belongs to the famous ASUS Republic of Gamers line but the more interesting fact is that it is miniature in size. The computer resembles a small-sized gaming console and has an internal volume of just 2.5 liters. The machine is based on an Intel Core i7 Haswell processor and offers 8 GB of dual-channeled DDR3L memory, a hybrid 1 TB hard drive, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11ac Wi-Fi and a GeForce GTX 750 Ti. If you run out of hard drive space then you can add an additional 2.5-inch storage device because the ROG GR8 fully supports it. As to sound the new ASUS PC comes with the high quality SupremeFX sound system.

The ASUS ROG GR8 runs Windows 8.1 and is fully compatible with SteamOS although a version with this OS will ship later this year. The PC is expected to be on the market in Q3 2014 but there’s no word on its price as of now.
