Zotac has just upgraded its Mek Mini lineup by tinkering under the hood.
There’s the GM207SC7R0B, which features an Intel Core i7-9700K mated to the GeForce RTX 2070 Super. Meanwhile, the GM206SC5R0B features an i5-9400F processor and GeForce RTX 2060 Super video card.
Both are housed inside the mini-tower chassis measuring 10.27 x 5.35 x 10.19 inches. The Core i5 is supported by two power bricks (230W) similar to the Core i7 (two 330W). The GeForce RTX used in the two models is under the brand name Zotac Gaming.
The Mek Mini, one of the smallest desktop gaming platforms in the world, is the flagship product of Zotac. At just 9 liters, it can fit even cramped gaming stations. It’s also equipped with multiple colors through the addressable LEDs.
You can also customize the lighting with the Spectra 2.0, so the mini-tower is definitely an eye-candy. You can choose to fade-in and fade-out, cycle the colors through consistent rhythms, or flash the lights on and off. You can also choose the setting for a continuous succession of rainbow colors. There are millions of permutations of colors, so your desktop is never boring.
The Hong Kong-based company is one of the pioneers for compact gaming systems. Founded in 2006, it innovated the Mini PC that can fully support VR gaming. The system was called Magnus EN980, and it debuted in the Computex Taipei in 2016.
The year after, Zotac launched the GTX 1000 Mini line, along with the GTX 1080 Ti. That same year, Zotac Gaming was introduced, showcased in the Mek Mini desktop.
