CYBERPOWERPC Debuts the FANG Mini Series Compact PCs
CyberPower Inc., a global manufacturer of custom gaming PCs, today announced its FANG Mini series - an ultra-small form factor computer that literally puts Intel or AMD quad core gaming rig power in the palm of your hand.
By focusing on compact, efficient design, the FANG Mini series delivers desktop-level performance in a system that measures just 4.5 x 4.3 x 2.4 inches. This tiny PC will fit comfortably in a crowded entertainment center in your living room, tucked away on the back of your computer monitor via the included VESA bracket, or unassumingly sit on your desk next to your keyboard and mouse.
CyberPower used clever engineering to stuff everything into the FANG Mini series. Equipped with an Intel Core i7-4770R on the FANG MINI Pro or AMD A8-5557M CPU on the FANG Mini R9, the lines provide four powerful processing cores to tear through any workload, from office productivity to 3D gaming.
The FANG Mini Pro's Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200 GPU can output to dual 4K resolution displays and provide acceleration for a variety of tasks including video encoding and light gaming without putting added stress on the cooling system. The AMD Radeon R9 M275X in the FANG Mini R9 can handle high-definition, high-fidelity gaming and use AMD's App Acceleration technology to provide improved performance across the board in all applications.
The FANG Mini line includes the needed connections to hook up all your performance gaming peripherals. Standard features include HDMI and Mini DisplayPort graphics outputs, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, four USB 3.0 ports, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack with SPDIF support.
You can also lock down your FANG Mini using the integrated Kensington Security Slot. The FANG Mini is no toy, but a fully-functional PC with plenty of ports to support all of your devices in a footprint that's smaller than the power supply of a traditional desktop system.
The FANG Mini series can also be customized. Two SO-DIMM DDR3L slots can be configured with up to 16 GB of memory for heavy multi-tasking workloads. An mSATA slot can accommodate lightning-fast SSDs to provide quick boot times. A high-volume mechanical hard drive or an additional SSD can also be mounted to the available 2.5" expansion bay to meet any storage requirement.

FANG Mini R9: $799

edit..except that Steam OS doesn't support AMD GPUs yet.
