Introducing a Unique GPU Solution for Compact PCs
Maxsun unveils a motherboard that relocates the GPU slot, aimed at enhancing small form factor PC builds.
Small form factor (SFF) builds mimic bespoke mechanical timepieces: they are visually stunning yet challenging to work with due to the size constraints of their components. For those frustrated by awkward GPU fittings, Maxsun’s latest innovation might be of interest.
The motherboard, known as MS-Terminator B760BKB D5 WIFI, features a unique design that moves the PCIe graphics card slot to the rear, allowing for a neater installation without extension cables.
Maxsun states:
“Maxsun Magic! Ms-Terminator B760M BKB puts your GPU on the BACK! No extension cables, smaller, slimmer, and smarter. Would you try this build?”
(Translation: Maxsun Magic! The Ms-Terminator B760M BKB places your GPU on the back, avoiding the need for extension cables.)
Despite its innovative design, there are concerns about mounting compatibility with standard cases. This motherboard, while niche, aims to ease GPU installation for SFF enthusiasts. However, its technical specifications may leave some wanting, as it lacks higher-end features like Gen 5 M.2 SSD slots and Wi-Fi 7.
For those intrigued, completing a build with this motherboard could lead to exciting possibilities in compact PC design, pending successful implementation.
