Asus is going all out at Computex 2016, and as an evidence to that, it showcased the new ROG G31 Edition 10, a slim desktop that's crammed with two — count 'em — Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 in an SLI configuration.
Just take a moment to let that sink in and imagine the beast that the hardware maker is unleashing unto the world.
Now that the drooling is done, Asus is going to roll out the ROG G31 to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of its gaming lineup.
Going right for the rest of the specs, it's expected to sport a one-click CPU overclocking feature along with the aforementioned GeForce GTX 1080 with a two-way SLI setup cased in a 20-liter chassis. Thanks to that, it can deliver an impressive 4K UHD gaming experience.
Design-wise, it's fashioned with Mayan-inspired markings, but more than just aesthetics, it features 3D vapor-chamber thermal technology with dual hidden-airflow channels that are exclusive to ROG. According to Asus, the setup will not only dissipate heat effectively, but it will also keep things quiet.
Meanwhile, it will also house an Intel Core i7 chipset, which is likely the 6700K. On top of that, it'll bring up to 64 GB worth of RAM to the table, but it's still unclear whether it's going to be DDR3 or DDR4.
To continue listing the goodies it has in store, the gaming desktop is also going to come with four M.2 PCIe SSDs plus a Blu-Ray disc drive to boot.
Considering the hardware components jammed in the slim ROG G31, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the 600W power supply to keep the lights on is loaded in a secondary case. That shouldn't be much of an issue if Asus delivers the package well with a trusty and lengthy cable.
Also, it's equipped with a dedicated ESS audio DAC and an amplifier headphone jack, allowing gaming headsets to push out high-quality sound.
Asus hasn't given out pricing and availability details yet.
