Compact Fanless Computers

The 'Chromebox Fanless' Offers Powerfully Silent Processing Performance

— January 14, 2021 — Tech
ASUS has unveiled a compact and rugged fanless computer that is designed to make it easier than ever for business users, home computing enthusiasts and gamers alike to enjoy high-quality computing in a silent and unobtrusive package.

Dubbed the Chromebox Fanless, this computer looks like a modem but is in fact a high-powered computer that can be obtained with either a 10th Generation Intel Core i3/i7 processor or a Celeron variant, with up to 256 GB of solid-state storage and a speedy 16 GB of RAM also available.

What's great about the Chromebox Fanless computer is that it can be stowed on a desk like a traditional computer but can also be mounted to the back of a monitor to keep it out of sight and out of mind.

Set to be sold for $399, the ASUS Chromebox Fanless computer features a welcome evolution in computer design.
Trend Themes
1. Fanless Computers - Innovative processors that don't require fans to cool them down open up new possibilities for portable, silent computing.
2. Rugged Computing - Designing powerful computers that can withstand harsher environmental conditions creates opportunities for applications in fields such as military, construction and transportation.
3. Mountable Computers - Making computers that can easily be mounted to the back of a monitor frees up desk space and allows for more flexible computing arrangements.
Industry Implications
1. Computer Hardware Industry - Manufacturers of computer hardware can improve their competitive edge by investing in fanless technology, allowing for smaller and quieter designs.
2. Gaming Industry - Developers of gaming hardware can cater to a growing market of players who value performance and portability by creating fanless devices that can be easily transported to gaming events.
3. Surveillance and Security Industry - Creating rugged, fanless computers that can operate in a range of physical environments can benefit surveillance and security companies in creating discreet and durable monitoring systems.
