Asus has launched its latest All-in-One PC, borrowing somewhat from Apple's gorgeous iMac design while claiming its AiO is twice as fast, twice as camera-laden, and twice as golden.
The Taiwanese PC maker known for its outlandish designs has gone all out on the internals of the Z24OIC all-in-one Windows 10 PC, giving it a Core i7 processor (the highest class of Intel processor you typically see in a PC designed for the home), an Nvidia GeForce graphics processor, a whopping 32 gigabytes of RAM and even Intel's new 3D camera, the Real Sense.
If this AiO can't run an app for you, the app is probably broken. Or it's a MacOS app you installed by mistake because you thought you were sitting at an iMac.
On stage at the Computex geek fest here in Taipei, Asus' flamboyant chairman Jonney Shih said the Nvidia graphics processor, a GTX 960M, benchmarked at roughly twice the speed of the GPU in Apple's iMac.
It also comes with USB 3.1 Type-C ports which run twice as fast as regular USB 3.0 ports, he said. Type-C, my personal favourite type of USB, is the USB plug that can go in either way. It first appeared in Apple's recent MacBook, which as co-incidence would have it comes in the same champagne gold colour as the Asus AiO.
Obviously it differs from the Apple products, in that it will run Windows 10 rather than MacOS. Microsoft has just announced that Windows 10 will be available on July 29, so don't expect to see the Asus AiO before then.
No idea about the price just yet. Looking at those high-end specs, it won't be cheap.
