Geforce GT630M (Mobile) is not a gaming oriented graphics card. Very low end and designed and targeted more for casual computing or small office type work. This isn't a workstation or gaming computer.

The dedicated gaming pc, will play farmville at 100FPS!!!

Its Amazing!

I'm thinking flush mounted frame/bezel. Frame-less indicates no frame at all.

What annoys me is why they bother with the dedicated weak graphics, either use "sufficent" Intel graphics and make it an office/multimedia system, or put a DECENT gpu into it to make it a gaming all in one.

I know why its a basic GPU however - its all down to PSU limitations, its expensive to make a high output "brick" psu.

When are these companies going to figure out we do not want touch on our home PC, keep it on tablets.

Yeah, my grandfather has one of these AIOs, and it might as well be a hair dryer. It's a mystery how such underpowered hardware can produce so much heat.

Marketing........ Nvidia has still charm to fanboys in europe and on some other parts of the world. As long as the name was there they can price it the way they want.

/checks article - no mention of gaming at all. Just a good "computing" experience.
/checks source article with MSI release - no mention of gaming. Mentions A/V and music. Not gaming.
/checks MSI's site under "Gaming" - notebooks, but no AIOs. AIOs are under "entertainment" (including "the thrills of instant mesasge.")

... so, I'd have to say MSI isn't putting out a "gaming" AIO.
