Redefining the Desktop PC

The stylish, compact-sized GIGABYTE GB-BXA8-5557 expounds sheer simplicity and convenience. It sets a new standard for desktop miniaturization that makes it perfect as a discreet HTPC/multimedia hub, an ultra-low power PC for the family, an office PC or as a digital signage unit.

The AMD Richland A8-5557M quad-core APU delivers a clock rate of 2.1 to 3.1GHz, delivering no-holds-barred processor capabilities. You can run multi-threaded applications with noticeably fast results. The integrated AMD Radeon HD 8550G graphics provides fantastic graphic performance.

A Flexible, Compact DIY PC Kit

The GIGABYTE BRIX is a DIY PC kit, shipping with a Wi-Fi Mini PCIe module pre-installed, requiring only SO-DIMM system memory and a choice of either, or both mSATA SSD or standard 2.5” hard drives. The GIGABYTE BRIX maintains the DIY PC ethos, giving users the flexibility to independently choose preferred operating system, integrated storage and system memory configurations.

USB 3.0 and Network Connectivity

The GIGABYTE BRIX integrates four USB 3.0 ports (two front, two rear), ensuring ample connectivity for peripherals, storage devices and more. In addition to including a Gigabit Ethernet port, the GIGABYTE BRIX also includes a Mini PCIe module offering IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi and the latest Bluetooth 4.0, providing connectivity for low power Bluetooth devices and peripherals, as well as allowing users to easily connect their mobile devices.

VESA Support

Bundled with a VESA bracket, the GIGABYTE BRIX can easily be mounted behind a monitor or HDTV making it discreetly hidden from view. This offers a simple and elegant way to turn any VESA-compliant display or TV into a full-featured PC or digital signage unit.
