ooooooo .... I see it is a "gaming" box .. should be perfect for the video jock !!

I don't know enough about the robustness of Asus .. but the components are certainly at the top of the class.

Cap,

Really?

"Doesn't get any better"?

Have you tried sex, with a woman?

Hell, I'd rank a good pizza substantially higher that you apparently do and pizza is at least 10 spots lower than my suggested comparable!

(Pizza is #11)

LOL

Oh, yes, I've tried women.

First wife left me for sex with our marriage counselor;
Second wife left me for a long standing relationship with the bottle;
Third wife left me for another woman.

Steve will do nicely, thank you.

OK .. you were batting 1.000 ...

If you stay away from "heave", "conceive", and maybe "disbelieve" .. I'll call it good.

Does this thing use the SSD drive for memory, or did you just forget to add it to that loooong list?
 
Sorry folks. The M2. SSD is the "new" internal hard drive format. Instead of being sized like a normal 2.5" laptop drive, the new SSD's look much more like the size of a memory stick, reminiscent of the old Sony mem-sticks.

This machine originally had a limit of 16gb RAM, however with the new DDL4 architecture, system max is now 32gb.

32GB ( 2 x 16) 2133 DDL4 RAM

I best not have one video issue with VDJ. If so, it's VDJ, not this dynamo.
