With the recent generation of desktop-class mobile graphics cards manufacturers can pack even more power in a small form factor, as seen by the prevalence of backpack VR PCs, gaming console upgrades, and mini gaming rigs.
Zotac has followed this trend with its ZBOX Magnus mini gaming PC lineup, which boasts VR Ready Nvidia GTX 10 Series graphics in a tiny form factor.
The Zotac ZBOX Magnus is smaller than most gaming consoles and packs the power of a high-end gaming rig.
The ZBOX Magnus EN10 Series is a barebones mini gaming PC available in a number of configurations depending on the pre-installed GTX 10 Series graphics card.
The devices are fully customisable and do not ship with any pre-installed storage, memory, or operating system.
