And the system supports up to 96GB of DDR5-5600 memory and has an M.2 2280 slot for PCIe 4.0 or PCIe 5.0 storage.All told, it should offer much better gaming performance than the Steam Machine. But if you thought Valve’s $1049 mini PC was expensive, the ROG GR70 takes things to another level. After launching in China earlier this year, the little gaming PC is now available in the US for $2399 and up.The starting price is for an entry-level model with a 60W AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor, NVIDIA RTX 5060 mobile graphics with 8GB of GDDR6 memory, 16GB of RAM, and a 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD.That price jumps to $2599 for a model with a 70W Ryzen 9 9955HX chip and RTX 5070 graphics or $2800 for a version with a Ryzen 9 995HX3D processor. Higher-priced configurations are also available with additional RAM – Amazon is selling a top tier model with 32GB of memory for $3700.If the ROG GR70 looks familiar, that’s because it uses the same chassis as the Asus ROG NUC. But Asus generally reserves the NUC brand for Intel-powered hardware, which makes sense since Asus took over the NUC line when Intel stopped making its own mini PCs and other NUC-branded hardware.The little computer has a chassis that measures 282.4 x 187.7 x 56.6mm (11.1″ x 7.4″ x 2.2″). Inside the case there are three cooling fans and a wireless card with support for WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4.Ports include:1 x USB4 Type-C (40 Gbps, DP 1.4 Alt Mode, 15W USB-PD)1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbps, 15W USB-PD)2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbps)2 x HDMI 2.12 x DisplayPort 2.11 x 2.5 Gigabit LAN1 x 3.5m audio1 x DC power inputThe system come with a 330W power supply.via NotebookCheck
