ASRock Preps Mini PCs for Computex

With a certain international electronics show on the way, it would be odd if various hardware maker's didn't already start showing off their upcoming products, and it looks like ASRock is one of those that did.

Much like CES (Consumer Electronics Show) and CeBIT, Computex is a gathering that happens once every year in Taipei, Taiwan.

Basically, IT Companies from all over the world come together and start showing off their current, best products, as well as future projects.

The DIS Display Week can be seen as a sort of prequel, being more focused on displays, like the super-LCD that Sharp created.

At the next event, there will be many motherboards, systems and all other sorts of hardware parts on show.

ASRock will have a full collection of such things, from high-end motherboards down to even small form factor computers.

More specifically, the company will bring forth a pair of Mini PC series, one of which will employ Intel central processors and NVIDIA discrete graphics, complete with 3D Vision.

Basically, the Vision 3D Mini PC will have an Intel Core series Sandy bridge CPU and an NVIDIA add-in board, while the other one settles for the chip's built-in graphics.

WiFi is, of course, supported (802.11n) as is USB 3.0. Also, a 6 Gbps eSATA connector is ready and waiting (only on the CoreHT), as is THX TruStudio audio.

As one would expect, there isn't really a fountain of knowledge in regards to either machine, so prospective buyers will have to wait until the event itself before they can get a good grip on what each of the two can do.

In the meantime, ASRock also has such things as the 990FX Extreme4 AMD Bulldozer motherboard and the Fatal1ty 'Performance' LGA 1155 Motherboard on their way to mass availability, so users can definitely keep their minds occupied.
