If you ever wondered what’s inside Asus’ Transformer Prime now is your chance to find out as the tablet was the subject of a detailed image teardown.

Published by AnandTech, the teardown goes to great length to show us the insides of the Prime, including the tablet’s quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 SoC.

Of course that this isn’t the only thing that one would find inside the Transformer Prime as the chip is also accompanied by 32GB of Hynix e-NAND memory (basically a single chip SSD), 1GB of Elpida LPDDR2 DRAM an Azurewave WiFi controller as well as other bits and pieces.

The Broadcom BCM4751 GPS receiver and that troublesome GPS antenna are also packed in there, together with a large battery that takes out most of the available space.

For more pictures and detailed tear down instructions for the Transformer Prime head on over to the AnandTech website.
