Powerful CPU, Powerful integrated GPU, Form factor
Fan noise, Full potential let down by cooling solution, BIOS GUI
The $650 Gigabyte Brix Pro GB-BXi7-4770R is innovative, powerful, and well featured -- but it is not cool. Despite the obvious engineering achievement displayed by this little HTPC, it is let down by the cooling solution. The HSF is clearly capable of ke...
We waited five months to get the Brix Pro in our hands to try out and we are left with mixed emotions. The Gigabyte Brix Pro looks amazing and we love the form factor. The Gigabyte Brix Pro is certainly chunky compared to the Intel NUC, but we can let tha...

Lots of performance in a still-tiny box, Quad-core CPU makes it a plausible server, workstation, or video rendering box, Iris Pro GPU makes 720p and 1080p gaming a real possibility, Easy to put together, 2.5-inch drive bay offers additional flexibility, G
Consumes as much as double the power of a Haswell NUC (but still pretty good for a full-on desktop), Not as cost-effective as building your own, especially for CPU-oriented usage. We'd recommend the $500 Core i5 model over the $650 Core i7 one for most pe

Ultra small form factor, Low power consumption, VESA mountable, Barebones design gives flexibility on storage and memory, Gaming is within reach when the settings are dialled back a bit
Temperature levels are of a real concern, No analogue mic/line input, Slow USB3.0 write performance, Loud fan as a result of the high temperatures under load,
PricingUnlike a laptop or pre-built desktop system, the Brix Pro comes in a barebones format as mentioned previously. This therefore means that in addition to the base system itself, you will need to select a storage medium – be it a SATA SSD or HDD or a...

CPU can get very hot under load, Fan noise is a frustration, Expensive for a barebone, HEXUS.where2buy, Gigabyte Brix Pro (GBBXi74770R), £347.00, Free shipping for HEXUS members, HEXUS.right2reply, At HEXUS, we invite the companies whose products we test
As has been the case with most micro PCs, Gigabyte's Brix Pro is a sign of things to come. At some point in the not-too-distant future, high-performance PCs with bags of CPU speed and laudable game-playing ability will be delivered in small, table-top pa...
The Gigabyte BRIX Pro GB-BXi7-4770R Ultra Compact PC Kit retails at around 600 USD (approx RM 2,000) – the build is solid, doesn't consume much power and comes with Windows 8 pre-installed. It will never be your best friend in gaming but it will definitel...
If you're looking for a compact computing solution that almost literally takes up no space at all, the GIGABYTE BRIX Pro may just be what you're looking for, just keep your fingers cross that it actually arrives here in Malaysia.(previously published in ...
