Singapore — ASUS today announced
that VivoMini VM65 Series mini PCs are now available with the latest 7th Generation
Intel® Core™ i7 processors for faster performance and
stunning 4K UHD visuals. These mini PCs feature DDR4 memory, discrete NVIDIA®
GeForce® graphics and ASUS SonicMaster-enhanced audio — making them
ideal as powerful home entertainment hubs for casual games and smooth 4K UHD video
playback.
7th Gen Intel Core performance and up to 16GB
DDR4 memory
VivoMini VM65 Series mini PCs are powered by a
choice of the latest 7th Generation Intel Core[1] i7, i5 and i3 processors. These quad-core
processors use an energy-efficient microarchitecture, advanced process
technology and silicon optimizations to deliver improved performance over
previous-generation processors. The updated VM65 Series mini PCs deliver an 11 percent
performance increase[2] for productivity tasks. In addition, these PCs
can be specified with up to 16GB DDR4 memory to provide users with fast and efficient
performance for daily multitasking computing.
The Good
Design Award-winning VivoMini VM65 Series mini PCs are a striking addition to
any home. These mini PCs can be VESA-mounted on the back of a monitor or TV to
create a custom all-in-one PC. They operate almost silently too, with a noise
level of just 24dB at idle — even quieter than a library.
Discrete NVIDIA graphics and
SonicMaster-enhanced audio
The
higher-specification VivoMini VM65N has discrete NDIVIA GeForce 930M Optimus™
graphics and 4K UHD display support to allow users to enjoy stunning videos,
play casual games at their highest settings, or view incredibly-detailed
photos. NVIDIA graphics cards deliver a performance boost of up to 56 percent
over PCs with integrated graphics, making VivoMini VM65N an ideal photo or
video editing platform.
VivoMini
VM65 Series mini PCs come with built-in SonicMaster speakers — doing away with
the need for external speakers. This gives VivoMini VM65 Series deep rich bass
and crystal-clear vocals, even at the highest volume levels.
ASUS-exclusive Vivo DualBay storage
VivoMini
VM65 Series mini PCs feature Vivo DualBay, a unique dual-storage design that
can accommodate a combination of up to two 2.5-inch SSDs and HDDs for added
storage flexibility. This gives users the option to mix and match SSD or HDD
options for an ideal balance between larger storage capacities or faster data
access speeds. Models without Vivo DualBay will have a single 3.5-inch HDD.
A single
3.5-inch HDD, or two 2.5-inch HDDs via Vivo DualBay, would be sufficient to
store entire movie or music libraries; while a combination of a 2.5-inch HDD
and an SSD would be a perfect choice for fast operating system boot times and
lightning-fast application launches.
