30 x 30 x 10 centimetres are the official measurements of this tiny 4K gaming PC, according to a report by Gizmodo.
The size isn’t the biggest surprise however, it’s the fact that the custom-built case costs more than all of the $3,500 (R49,267) worth of components included in the box.
“Built for an Australian hardcore PC enthusiast and engineer, it’s a prototype for what could well be the smallest 4K gaming PC that money can buy.”
“The case is designed so that the 2 hottest components in the case, the CPU and graphics cards, are separated and have access to fresh air directly from outside the case.”
“As you can see from the photos below, the CPU is accessing fresh air from the left side of the case, and the dual graphics cards are accessing fresh air from the right side of the case.”
It is not he world’s smallest 4K gaming PC however, that honour belongs to “The Sentry” by Dr Zaber with dimensions of 340 x 310 x 66mm.
It is nowhere near as powerful as this PC however, with just enough room for a single full-sized graphics card, whereas this chassis can hold two GPUs.
