Robust but watch the temps

Overall the small form factor and the surprising gaming performance makes this thing pretty awesome. And I do like the fact that you can run a RAID setup for even faster storage performance if you need. The temps it runs depends on the user if it's...

This thing is small, highly versatile, and looks great too. I primarily have it set up for use as a portable gaming PC and it handles just about anything I throw at it pretty reasonably. (Mostly LAN games like Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, League of Legends,...

Heat...this thing gets hot! I suppose technically it stays within safe temps but it gets way too hot for my liking. Typically around idle the CPU can clock up to around 40C, while the GPU sits around 45C, but under light to moderate loads things heat...
