ECS (Elitegroup Computer Systems) is showing off two new tiny desktop computers at Computex this week – ECS Liva Core and ECS Liva X2. The first information about these two mini PCs could read in mid March, when the ECS showed for the first time Liva Core and Liva X2 at CeBIT in Germany.
We still don’t know how much the new Liva systems will cost or when they’ll be available. But we know that Liva Core is a 5.4″ x 3.3″ x 1.5″ desktop PC with an Intel Core M processor, while the Liva X2 is a 1.6″ x 3.3″ x 2″ system with a lower-power Intel Braswell processor. Both systems feature passive cooling for fanless designs and silent operation.
