Haha, I really dont like the naming of this. It seems really unproffesional.

750ti and an i7? who came up with the specs? Alienware?

I know its supposed to be a LAN/steam pc but really, it'll probably cost less to build a better spec'd RVz01 based pc.

I think the i7 will be 899

I think the i7 will be 899

Ah right, so basically it would be possible to get a better rig in the RVZ01 for the same.

Yeah, I don't think I'm the target audience...

 

[tinytomlogan]

Its meant for people that just want to buy and run. Prebuilt wont ever be an option for people that like to build their own. This is a shit load smaller than the RVZ01 though, when I first saw this I thought it was a wifi router ffs!

Looks Ideal for when I was back at uni squeezed into my dorm room. I can see there will be a nice target audience for people who want to game with confined space.

could be better used for a Nv gamestream box, let your triple 980 monster or what ever, stay in your closet and hook that thing up your TV

so where would i put my rads??

But i guess it does have a nice audience of the console guys who say "pc's are just to big"

i wonder how the 750 ti stacks up against a 980M though.

With a 120watt power brick I can't see heat dissipation becoming an issue, that's like half a gaming laptop.

[Wraith]

Literally looked at the specs and thought about my rig :huh: I must say though, I do prefer this over any of the current consoles.

 

[Greenback]

It does look nice though ASUS know how to design stuff

 

[NeverBackDown]

I love how they are careful to claim "4k support". Sure it supports 4k but not 4k gaming

Don't think its that possible anyway with a 750ti.. for 4k movies or streaming it would be fine though.

Yes, and Republic of Gamers sounds very professional by point of contrast.

Its not that bad, as its become a well known name. I doubt people will go around wanting the "gr8" console...

 

[shambles1980]

im not a fan of "rog" to be fair lol.. reminds me of little devil things from a mmorpg
come to think of it im not that keen on the word "gaming" or "gamers" on any pc related stuff.
but funny enough i do like the word EXTREEME! or OVER CLOCKED. i even like MAXIMUS.
some how its better than standard or lesser.
