Asus have recently announced a new Mini PC with powerful specifications. Despite being a small-form computer, it can surely compete with a lot of other PCs out there. Whether it’s because of it’s HDMI output, or the 7.1 audio, this computer gives you more than one reason to pick it up.

This new Essentio CS5110 will come with Core 2 Duos or slightly older processors (on cheaper models), supports up to 4GB of RAM, has a slot-in Blu-Ray drive or a DVD multi-drive and even has room to fit an Nvidia chip onboard, the MXM MN8600M GT 256M. It won’t be enough to play Crysis at a decent framerate, but it can certainly handle most modern games.

Regardless of what devices they are releasing, Asus seem to be at an all-time high. Their motherboards are some of the best, and their laptops are some of the most reliable (they even assemble (or assembled) the ever popular Apple Macbooks, and their ultra-small (and cheap) EEE laptop is having tremendous success. So if you’re picking a similar device to this one, the time has never been better than now.
