Seriously tiny ECS LIVA X Mini PC shown off at CES

Matthew Wilson January 5, 2015 PC

Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) has lifted the curtain on the latest member to its LIVA family of mini PCs. The Liva X is a new, super small, 15w consuming mini PC powered by a 22nm Intel Bay Trail-M System on Chip CPU. Just as impressive is the thermal design, which is supposedly silent, knocking out 0dB.

The LIVA X will offer a complete PC experience, with support for multiple operating systems, including Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and various versions of Linux, including Ubuntu. It also comes equipped with USB 3.0, 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth, Gigabit Ethernet, dual monitor support and an mSATA slot for extra internal storage.

ECS Watermarked

As you can see from the images, this machine is seriously tiny, measuring in at the length of a smartphone. ECS will have more to show off during the course of the Consumer Electronics Show though. Other products tipped to make an appearance include new All-in-One systems and Durathon technology enabled Z97 motherboards.

KitGuru Says: We will have more news from CES as it arrives. There is plenty more to look forward to this year. What do you guys think of the LIVA X mini PC? It is impressively tiny.

    What are the specs and pricing on this? These days smartphones have better specs than the average pc. So this might have some damn epic specs in that tiny case. Really curious to know! Might build/buy one, a pocket pc ;D

    This is a refinement and upgrade of the previous LIVA. Improvements include: A third USB port (two USB 2, one USB 3), USB ports at the front of unit, now has Windows 7 support, quad core chip rather than dual core, mSATA slot. No longer uses micro USB for power (instead uses 3A brick). 4 GB RAM model will be available, not just 2 GB.
