The X51 uses a Mini-ITX motherboard with an Intel Core i3 base processor, but it can be configured up to Core i7 with 8GB RAM, NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 555, 1TB HDD and an optional Blu-ray drive.
With a chassis similar in size to the original Xbox, it sports a matte black finish with three customisable lighting zones and can even be placed horizontally or vertically as if it were a console.
Measuring 13.5in high, 12.5in deep and 3.7in wide, it’s been labelled as the smallest gaming desktop ever produced, but still looks to provide everything you need for the complete gaming experience with USB 3.0, Wireless-N technology and HDMI 1.4.
