Nvidia’s much-anticipated
GTX Titans are on the loose and high-end system builder
AVADirect is loading its gaming PCs with Nvidia's new graphics powerhouses. As a matter of fact, we have an AVADirect Mini Gaming PC (complete with a GTX Titan) in house right now and we’re putting the system through its paces, so today we’re giving you a quick preview ahead of the deep-dive.
Our review system is the Mini Gaming PC, which is housed in the LAN party-friendly BitFenix Prodigy chassis. It’s a small, tough-looking case, and it’s packing some noteworthy horsepower, including an Intel
Core i7-3770K quad-core processor, the Nvidia GTX Titan, and 8GB of Crucial
Ballistix Tactical Tracer RAM (DDR3 1866MHz), all on an
Asus P8Z77-I Deluxe motherboard.
As we mentioned, more info and the benchmarks will come soon, but for now, you can check out the Mini Gaming PC’s guts and get a first impression. Keep an eye out for our full review.

Josh cut his teeth (and hands) on his first PC upgrade in 2000 and was instantly hooked on all things tech. He took a degree in English and tech writing with him to
Computer Power User Magazine and spent years reviewing high-end workstations and gaming systems, processors, motherboards, memory and video cards. His enthusiasm for PC hardware also made him a natural fit for covering the burgeoning modding community, and he wrote
CPU’s “Mad Reader Mod” cover stories from the series’ inception until becoming the publication editor for
Smart Computing Magazine. A few years ago, he returned to his first love, reviewing smoking-hot PCs and components, for
HotHardware. When he’s not agonizing over benchmark scores, Josh is either running (very slowly) or spending time with family.
