Acer has announced a gaming desktop computer of small form factor, which contains powerful gaming components in a relatively small body of 15.4 liters. This is relatively little. Conventional computer cases for gaming systems based on ATX format motherboards can occupy 30-45 liters. Although there are more compact gaming systems, for example, the Neptune HX90G is housed in a case with a volume of only 2.8 liters.

The Acer Predator Orion X has three separate zones for each of the main component clusters. At the same time, access to the components is opened using the latches of the Zone 02, Zone 03 and Zone 01 levers, which are visible on the front panel.
The video card is located in the left compartment of Zone 02. The configuration can include the RTX 4070 Ti, 4080 or three-slot liquid-cooled RTX 4090 models. In the same area, two compartments are available for installing 2.5-inch drives. On the right in Zone 01 are the power supply unit and the motherboard with all the components installed on it: a processor (up to Intel Core i9-13900KS), DDR5 RAM up to 64 GB and a main solid-state drive with a capacity of up to 2 TB. There’s also a glass panel for the front of the case and an optional bracket that mounts on top to store the headset.
Enthusiasts can enjoy an optional hot-swappable NVMe SSD module that slides right out from the front. The system also includes a Killer E3100G Ethernet network card (2.5 Gbit/s), Wi-Fi 6E module, USB3.2 connector (Type-C and Type-A), audio connectors. The Acer Predator Orion X computer weighs about 9 kg.

The price of the top version POX-950 (motherboard Z790, Core i9-13900KS, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, RTX 4090 in liquid cooling) reaches $5000. The sale will start in September.
