Computex is held every year in Taipei exhibition, which presents technological innovations from all over the world. It is the largest event of its kind in Asia and the second, after Cebicie, in the world. From 31 May to 4 June more than 1,600 exhibitors will present their solutions and themes, will be Internet stuff, innovations, business solutions and gaming.
While all elements are very interesting, we will focus on what the readers and editors of Polygamii most interested in, or just for gaming. These types of events are to each other, they attract a whole bunch of exhibitors offering various, sometimes strange solutions. So instead disintegrate producers glowing pads mouse with a USB hub, we will concentrate on the major ones, namely on the ASUS-ie.
At yesterday’s conference, preceding the proper event the company introduced eight new products from the Republic of Gamers , which is the department responsible for the equipment to play. It is also worth noting that it has been ten years since the Republic is on the market.
I am very proud of the achievements of the Republic of Players during their first 10 years of existence, and today’s launch and announcement shows that our commitment to deliver extreme performance for gamers unabated. I guarantee that the second decade ROG will be just as spectacular.
He said the conference Jonney Shih, chairman of ASUS. Among the illustrated device will find a new version of the board Rampage V, 180-hercowy monitor Swift PG248Q, whose frequency can further tweak, headphones 7.1 Centurion cooled steam and equipped with two GTX-y 1080 desktop G31, a docking station for connecting an external graphics card for laptops and two interesting facts, one of which does not make much sense out of pure marketing.
First let it be just that little sense, or laptop for gamers GX800. It is the successor to the GX700, also cooled with liquid on board which we find two graphics chips Nvidia and running at 4,4GHz Intel processor series K. For this, it features a mechanical keyboard, able to change the color of the backlight.
everything is good, but for whom it is the product? ASUS advertises it as gamingowy most powerful laptop on the market and a little of that – it has to enable hassle-free overclocking thanks to the docking station with additional cooling. It can therefore safely assume that this is the offer for hardcore gamers. But if you prefer not to make the same computer? At another, can easily customizując housing?
Not to mention the issue of playing on a laptop, because it misses the target. This type of device to be small, lightweight, and long battery life. Meanwhile, we get a mare that would fully show what he could do need additional equipment, which makes the GX800 desktop computer. Anyway, to comfortably play even FPS-y and so you need to connect additional peripherals to your laptop. At the end there is still the issue price, which will probably be staggering.
Why this arrangement bother producing this type of equipment? The answer is simple: Because we can. Creating GX800 ASUS showed that we can do not only powerful gaming laptop, but also one that is more powerful than most currently available in the desktop market. And that hardly anyone buy it? So what, it’s important that people talk.
Another interesting option is to Avalon – integrated with housing motherboard allows easy expansion or modification of a computer on the basis of interchangeable modules. A similar solution was presented in 2014 Razer Project Christine died but because component manufacturers have not expressed interest in making him the modules. Probably the same fate awaits Revo from Acer, which is based on the same concept.
the difference between the ideas of competition, and the Avalon is that ASUS is also a manufacturer of components, so that is not dependent on other performers and can guarantee a constant supply of modules throughout the product life cycle.
there is only one problem – the motherboard is based on chipset Z170, which in itself is not bad and quietly serve a couple of years, but when it comes time to exchange the component will be forced to buy a new box, and the manufacturer may try to be clever, and the way to change also joints in all the modules, which will force us to replace all.
Then there’s another issue. I do not know about you, but I like to poke into your computer, and how to submit the new is doing fine in the housing takes me more time than installing individual components. There is something incredibly engaging in laying coupleth and all cables and components, so that the whole looked neat.
Does modular PCs are the future of the industry? Probably not. One issue is just guarantee delivery of additional modules, the second is the fact that when the aging of the whole motherboard is suitable for the trash, because this does not replace. In the end, this is what I wrote above paragraph. It seems to me that the players prefer to do everything yourself from beginning to end, and the other, and so are not interested in burying your computer, just mention it, when it comes to this time.
This could however see the consoles. The buy to have a relative calm on the whole, lasts a long time generation. Meanwhile, the PS4 NEO seems increasingly likely, and also circulate rumors of Scorpio, which is a stronger version of the Xbox One planned for 2017 years. As pecetowiec I do not mind speeding up the whole process, but I also understand sentient person is injured. If the console was based on easily replaceable modules, the problem would not be.
At the end of another, very cool design. Watching the following presentation I got the impression that the guests of Skynet in a very similar manner showed humanity your product …
