An ‘elite gaming PC’ is heading to market from graphics card specialist Nvidia.
Nvidia’s GeForce division has announced a new range of incredibly high-end gaming PCs called GeForce GTX Battleboxes, making a clear statement of intent as the AMD-powered next generation of consoles prepares to take the stage.
A BattleBox is a desktop built by Origin PC, approved by Nvidia, and powered by GeForce GTX 780 graphics or better. A system that qualifies as a BattleBox will be capable of playing the latest games at 4K Ultra HD without feeling like you’re watching a slide show. That includes titles such as Batman: Arkham Origins, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Watch Dogs, and Call of Duty: Ghosts. Key to each is an SLI configuration of GTX 780 or Titan cards, backed up by i7 processors and other high-end components. 4K output support is also high on the agenda.
Systems that qualify as BattleBoxes are specially configured versions of Origin PC’s Millennium and Genesis lines, which are available now. The cost of entry for a BattleBox is $2,873 in the US.
