A rather interesting totally silent show package...
The Japanese company ASKTech now presents an all new chassis-oriented HTPC that will not produce a single noise in the living room with a look of the old satellite STB. Rated measurements, it is 29.5 x 27 x 7.6 cm for 3.2 Kg on the scales, not bad! Its name? NT-TX3000, less sexy, but it is covered with aluminum for a simple reason, it is the chassis itself, which will play the role of sink with large fins on the sides to cash up to 65W TDP. The manufacturer indicates that this is not its system which is limiting, but the power of 100 Watts which is outsourced.
Inside, there are a motherboard format mini-ITX with limitations that one knows, but for a media-center, this should not be a problem. There are still two USB 2.0 ports at the rear in addition to those offered by the map and an infrared receiver on the front, with optional remote control which is only recognized under Windows. The Japanese on his sheet indicates the possibility to add a PCI Express card in low - profile, but the cooling by heat pipes system covers the slot, making it unusable. See if it passes above the map, which is difficult to predict...
No price announced for the moment, but his brother the TX2000 NT negotiates about €322. It remains that wait wisely to find by us, if an importer has the good idea to focus.
