Asus has some interesting computers but their recent announcement regarding a potential Steam Machine is for all Steam gamers. Here is the official press release:
“ROG GR8 is full-on PC gaming with high style and fantastic convenience. With an Intel Core i7 processor and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750Ti graphics, GR8 packs immense PC power into sleek console dimensions for gaming experiences that push far beyond your expectations. From the outstanding SupremeFX audio output to 4K/UHD graphics and no-lag Gigabit Ethernet networking, along with a design allowing easy upgrades of storage devices and memory, GR8 is hardcoded for gaming. The slimline design is as at home in the living room as it is in a bedroom, and occupies hardly any space. It also has a built-in Miracast™ receiver, allowing HD content from supported Android smartphones and tablets, Windows 8.1 PCs and WiDi 3.5+ devices to be streamed straight to the big screen.
The first GR8 runs Windows 8.1 and is fully compatible with SteamOS and the Steam Controller. A SteamOS-powered ROG GR8 will be launched at a later date, in alignment with Valve’s Steam Machine schedule”.
Basically the new ROG GR8 is a Steam Machine. For a PC the aesthetics resembles more of a home console than a computer. Asus is also releasing a new gaming mouse, keyboard and notebook. For the latest game news and more, come back and visit BagoGames!
