The ASUS PN42 is official



This is it. The PN42 is our most anticipated PC of the year. The ExpertCenter PN42 will be available globally in the coming days, and will offer desktop performance, great connectivity, superior reliability, affordable price, and - FINALLY - a well-thought-out fanless system (featuring an internal heat sink in a convection-friendly case). Passive cooling has the potential to reach millions of homes and businesses. 

"The ultracompact ASUS ExpertCenter PN42 mini PC is powered by an Intel processor N100 & N200 with Intel UHD Graphics and is designed to easily handle a wide variety of home and business applications. ExpertCenter PN42 can support up to three displays, or two 4K displays, simultaneously for efficient multitasking. Plus, it can be specified with up to two 2.5 Gb Ethernet ports, and offers wide-ranging connectivity with up to seven USB ports plus an additional configurable port for either DisplayPortTM 1.4, VGA, COM, HDMI, or USB-C DisplayPort (DP Alt Mode) options. The diminutive size of ExpertCenter PN42 makes it well-suited for spaces where traditional PCs won't fit."
