It's supposed to be a multimedia PC with gaming support on the side

If you're in the market for a gaming PC, you'll probably want to look at CyberPower or Razer, or any other boutique system maker. Or just make your own from retail parts. If you're just looking for a multimedia PC with a bit of decent prowess for some occasional gaming though, ASUS has introduced the M32.

Put simply, ASUS M32 is a desktop computer that, while not ridiculously overpowered, does have all it needs to let you play anything you want, although maybe not in Full detail at 4K resolution.

It's all owed to the CPU (up to an Intel Core i7 central processing unit) and the add-in graphics card.

That's right, unlike other full-featured desktops (not counting the aforementioned boutique models), the ASUS M32 does not limit itself to the integrated graphics chip in the CPU.

Instead, you'll get to choose between a number of AMD and NVIDIA graphics adapters.

Sadly, ASUS did not provide a list, and didn't really go into details about memory, storage and pricing either.

It did mention SonicMaster audio technology though, as well as HDMI video output, USB 3.0, a 6-in-1 memory card, ASUS Ai Charger (50% faster recharge for mobile devices via USB, even when the PC is turned off) and minimal noise (a fourth of other PCs of this sort).

Finally, the ASUS M32 should have an “affordable” price as well, but no sum was provided. At least the 32 GB of ASUS WebStorage are for free (for three years anyway).
