ASUS - ROG Compact 10L Chassis Gaming Desktop - Intel Core i7-13700F - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 - 1TB SSD - Black

A quality build, came in a big box protecting another smaller box that contained the computer in a sleeve. When unboxing I couldn’t helped by being impressed with the overall package. The computer itself if a compact 10l case with an i7, 16gb ram, 1tb ssd and a 3060 with 12 go vram. The chipset supports 32 gb ram maximum so if you need 64+ gb of ram this is not for you. I plan a 32gb ram upgrade in the future. The computer is very responsive, exuding quality, and is running all the software I tried without problems. I have a very small, limited crowded space available for my computer needs, and you can see the size compared to my old 13”Alienware laptop in the attached pictures, and I can fit it anywhere. I think it will fit into a bigger backpack and would be easy to transport if you go on a trip. I ordered an HDMI portable monitor just for this. GPU temp stays at 28 degrees Celsius, going up to 44-45 under heavy load, the system is just chugging along, power settings are balanced. Very little noise comes from the fans. Overall impression is very good, I don’t know how they managed to pack so much power in such a small case. Things I will add in the future. 32gb ram, another NVME drive, maybe a 4060 with 16gb vram, or an rtx 4000 sff with 20gb vram that will lower the power consumption even more. Main use for this computer is Ai and inference but is also handling games with no problem. Overall I am happy with my purchase.

Fantastic computer! I use this for AutoCAD to make engineering documents and play games, when I can. I got the 12gb RAM 3060 13th gen i7 and I love it. Could’ve gotten the 3070 or even 4070, but for my use of Civil 3d, even a 3060 is overkill for for AutoCAD. Very fast and responsive for computer design. Played a few games and have had no issue. Graphics look great even at 1080 resolution and games play smooth. If you have the extra cash, a 3060ti or 3070 is totally worth it. My concern was that a graphics card over a 3060 may be too hot. The computer does get hot in the office desk furniture I have, but when I open the little desktop door it cools down very fast. When it isn’t in enclosed furniture it stays cool and the fans are relatively quite. I love how small it is and how I can make upgrades to it in the future. Buy it on sale and you won’t regret it!

I have owned mine since Dec 2023. I paid 1199 for it and at the time I thought with an I5 and 3060 was reasonable price. Only 2 months later was on sale for 899 and now 849 on Amazon and this was hard to swallow. Such a great deal at these prices. The best thing about this is the Size, quality of case and feel and Led lighting, also that it comes from a major company Asus Rog Division. Really my 2 main negatives are this If there is a problem with Hardware or needs to be returned a problem to send back to Asus vs someone that does repairs onsite like Dell, Hp, Lenovo etc. 2. The fans go at one speed and that is high and loud even at Idle, tried numerous ways to quiet them like Armor Crate Bios etc and called tech support. No luck so going to move it undermy desk to knock out some Decibels. This is loud even at Idle or surfing Web same sound as when gaming. 3. IF the fan noise was less and I could get at current sale prices would buy again. Otherwise would probably get a quieter larger Case like Dell Xps, Hp Omen 25L, Predator 3000, Lenovo LoQ or even Msi Workstation /Gaming Pc which is under 20 litres also... case was easy to open and clean out with Air Blower.
