The
Asus Essentio CS5110 is the smallest desktop PC that has embedded discrete graphics.
The unit is capable of displaying high definition media better than anything in its size class and fully supports 7.1 surround as well as Blu-ray media through its Blu-ray SuperMulti drive. The CS5110 uses the worlds first two-in-one thermal module which gives the unit the best and most reliable thermal solution for a computer of its size. The CS5110 is 7.8"
x 11.4"
x 3.1" which isn't all that small compared to other SFF
(small for factor) computers but as previously mentioned it is the smallest computer with its current set of features. The unit supports Intel Core2 Duo processors, up to two sticks of DDR2 800 memory with a maximum size of 4GB, and One hard drive from 250GB-1TB. The most important piece of the computer is of course the fully integrated discrete graphics cars which is a
MXM MN8600M GT 256M.
(MXM isn't the brand by the way, it stands for "Mobile PCI Express Module")
