Republic of Gamers has been somewhat of an icon in the Gaming World because of the raw powered gaming laptops and desktops they create. This time Asus launched its new ROG gaming desktop and when you look at the specifications, you could see that it is a true beast. the first thing you notice is the liquid cooling system of it. Asus has also included a one click overclocking feature to the liquid cooled Core i7 processor of this beast. This is of course a behemoth in power and also in size with dimensions of 11.8 x 20.8 x 24.8 inches (We could see why it's called TYTAN). It is powered by a 6 Core Ivy Bridge Core i7-3960X processor on an intel X79 chipset. The one-click turbo over clocking allows you to dynamically overclock this ROG TYTAN up to 4.2 Ghz without restarting. The ROG logo on the case and bottom grill lights indicate the three different system readiness states blue for 3.8 GHz (Startup mode), and red for both 4 GHz (Turbo Gear mode) and 4.2 GHz (Turbo Gear extreme mode) clock speeds.
When you turn the machine into the Turbo Gear mode the case of this ROG transforms (Yes you read it right. It transforms!)by automatically opening up its top and side panels to reveal its cooling fans that exhaust hot air and redirect cool air into the system. The CG8890 has a Rampage IV Formula motherboard which has four PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16*2 and two PCIe 2.0 x1 expansion slots, four 3 Gb/s SATA and four 6 Gb/s connections and this comes with a choice of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 (with 2 GB of dedicated DDR 5 video memory) or 690 (with 4 GB VRAM and supporting up to four screens) GPU options.
The CG8890 is capable of having up to 15TB HDD and 256GB SSD storage. It also has dual channel DDR3 memory that is given upto 16GB. The in-built sound card is a Realtek ALC892 one but there is the option of selecting a ASUS Xonar DX sound card. Optical drive options include a SuperMulti DVD burner and a Blu-ray writer (with space for a second drive if required). A 16-in-1 media card reader, two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 ports have been included on the front and to the rear there are two 6 Gb/s eSATA ports, four USB 3.0 and six USB 2.0 ports, an optical S/PDIF out and a 8-channel audio I/O, a Gigabit Ethernet LAN port, a Clear CMOS button and a ROG Connect On/Off switch. All of these features are powered by a 900W power supply. The ROG Tytan CG8890 comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit edition pre-installed. It also comes with a USB ROG keyboard and a ROG 4000dpi gaming mouse. The pricing of this gaming powerhouse is yet to be revealed.
