ASRock has introduced during this CES 2022 its new 8-liter desktop barbs, the DeskMeet B660 and X300. Two small cases ideal for mounting a powerful mini PC with multiple expansion options.
The ASRock DeskMeet B660 model supports the latest 12th generation Intel Core processors, while the ASRock DeskMeet X300 supports the full range of AMD AM4 desktop processors. Two mini PC builds with the option to mount a discrete GPU and multiple hard drives, a compact solution for our desktops.
The DeskMeet is a revolutionary design of the Mini-ITX platform. ASRock not only optimizes its motherboard to minimize internal cables, but also optimizes its power supply for better cable management and airflow. Most striking is DeskMeet’s chassis design. Users can easily build a small form factor PC in just minutes. DeskMeet’s incredible scalability offers plenty of room to expand or upgrade your build.
