Looking to the outside chassis designs for small form factor PCs have been limited in their diversity and general aesthetic. PCDIY builder likes myself who have large hands find it even more difficult especially due to the generally cramped interiors. While it is possible to build your own small form factor PC, SSF builds are some of the more challenging builds to take on due to the tight dimensions and number of restrictions that exists due to significantly reduced total usable space. Generally here on the PCDIY website I focus on DIY or do it yourself. I have been lucky enough to spend some time with this new desktop and put it through it paces and see what it is all about. Unlike traditional desktops it is considerably slimmer and smaller. ASUS and its ROG desktop team have been hard at work over the last year to design and develop a uniquely styled performance oriented gaming desktop. Through advancements in PC architecture and efficiency which translate into lower power consumption and improved thermal characteristics we have entered an era of having a small form factor PC that can offer truly desktop class performance. As the DIY community has shown along with gaming oriented system integrators small form factor does not have to compromise on performance. It has also meant that you compromise on the features and functionality you may want. Historically going with a smaller PC and defiantly a slim PC has meant lower performance. One of the biggest trends over the last couple of years in the desktop space has been a diversification of form factors and a serious push for high performance small form factor PCs.
