Origin PC Chronos review: A 4K gaming monster in a petite package

 

An RTX 3080 card makes this a high-resolution player.

Surfaces don't get hot

Like most mini-ITX motherboards, there's only one slot, occupied by the graphics card

Origin PC Chronos review: The Chronos is a compact powerhouse for VR gaming

 

Oculus and Vive VR setups will take up a lot of space, but this small desktop won't.

The Origin PC Chronos packs a lot of power into a small, well-designed case. This is one of the most space-efficient ways to get a VR-ready PC, and the company is known for excellent service and support.

With high-power components in a small case, the fans can get loud. The expensive configuration tested here has an Nvidia 970 graphics card -- upgrading to the top of the line will cost extra.

One of the most premium-feeling (and premium-priced) of the first generation of VR-ready gaming desktops, the Origin PC Chronos is compact but powerful.

Origin PC Chronos review: The Chronos is a compact powerhouse for VR gaming

Origin PC Chronos review

 

This pint-sized gaming PC delivers great performance, but be ready to pay for the privilege.

Strong performance ; Very quiet ; Small, unobtrusive case

Pricey ; Limited upgrade potential

This machine isn’t going to be for everyone, and if you’re not strapped on space a larger machine will give you more room to grow and expand, while costing about as much or less — Origin’s own Millenium line is a good place to start looking.

Origin PC Chronos: Two GeForce GTX 780 Tis In A Mini Gaming Cube

 

Origin PC proves you can get two GeForce GTX 780 Tis and a heavily overclocked Core i7-4770K into a microATX form factor using BitFenix's popular Phenom M chassis. Yes, the combination is expensive, but it's also oh-so fast. We deconstruct it for you.
