Asrock Nettop with NVidia Ion and Bluray

Looks like Asrock also made their own nettop and it’s souped up with an NVidia Ion graphics with an optional Blu-ray drive.

The form factor is similar to a Mac Mini though I think it’s much closer to the HDX1000 NMT player (see here).

  10. oo nga what’s without the wifi? or hindi lang nalista? why can’t they put slot-loading DVD drives for cool things such as these?

    65watts power consumption… SWEET!

    Too bad all the jacks are positioned too closely at the rear. Investing in a good USB hub is really recommended.

    I wonder how far will the gfx processor let me play slightly retro games (current MMOS and 2-9yr old games)

  12. ‘slightly retro games’? Come on, what IS that? Do you even know what comes out on your screen whenever you type?
