Falcon Northwest Tiki: P8Z77-I Mini-ITX And GeForce GTX Titan
It was only yesterday that Nvidia officially announced the fastest single GPU graphics card in the world, the Kepler based GeForce GTX Titan, but its already crept into some pretty impressive looking systems such as the Falcon Northwest Tiki. It can be configured as one of the fastest mini-ITX systems on the planet, with an ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe motherboard and GeForce GTX Titan packed inside! The first thing that hits you is its size. That's an Xbox 360 slim its standing next to. Pretty impressive eh? Its only 4 inches wide, 13 inches tall, and sits on a granite plinth to help keep it stable. However, don't let its slender profile deceive you, its jam packed with all the the latest bleeding edge hardware. In addition to the P8Z77-I Delxue and GTX Titan, the Tiki has a watercooled CPU, a pair of 2.5" drives, a single 3.5" drive and a slot loading DVD or Blu-Ray drive that can be loaded from the roof! The closed loop water cooling system, developed with Asetek, lets the P8Z77-I Deluxe take socket 1155 processors all the way up to an Intel Core-i7 3770K running at 4.6GHz, as in Anandtech's system. The graphics card is unusually mounted in parallel to the motherboard, thanks to a PCI-E port extender, and cools itself via a carefully positioned grilled opening in the side panel. As with all the Falcon Northwest systems, you can customize the paint anyway you want to: providing you can think of it, they can paint it! [gallery include="" size="medium" link="file" template="file-gallery"] Have you made your own powerful P8Z77-I mini-ITX system? What do you think of all the hardware Falcon Northwest have managed to stuff into such a small space: does the Tiki tempt you or do you aim to try and build something competitve? Let us know in the forums.
