CLX unveiled a proof-of-concept PC at the Intel TwichCon Party & Intel Creator Challenge Finale event in San Diego, California. The unique system packs two PCs into the same case. It does this by utilizing the Intel NUC 12 Extreme Compute Element compute card.
There are a couple of main benefits of having two PCs in the same case. First, a gamer can split tasks to different computers. For example, they could maximize gaming performance by solely running a game on one PC while managing a stream through the other. Second, the setup allows both PCs to take advantage of the same case, power supply, and cooler.
“When Intel first approached us with this concept, we were immediately intrigued at the possibility of successfully combining two PCs in one build,” said Director of Marketing and Product at CLX Jorge Percival. “Now that it’s been realized, our team is excited about the impact it will have on efficiency, not just in gaming, but across so many other industries, including streaming and content creation. We are so happy to work with Intel on this and can’t wait to see the reactions at the event.”
This system is a proof-of-concept, so you can’t order it. That being said, CLX makes products aimed at the prosumer market, so the company could release a similar system at some point in the future.
