« on: July 21, 2013, 11:04:48 AM »


A new AROS compatible system is available at http://www.ares-shop.de.
http://www.ares-shop.de/product_info.php?products_id=31


Small but still powerful enough for surfing, watching movies and playing games ... Ares Ares mini complements the available systems.
Thanks to its mini-ITX case it takes extremely little space and, thanks to the Nvidia GPU it is supported by AROS 3D System.
 
The base system comes with an AMD E350 M1 dual core. This circumstance makes the Ares mini a very efficient partner for Retro computing and High definition video.
 
Like the original AresOne even the small one is designed for AROS. * Every AROS distribution, can be used. By default, if no wishes are expressed, AEROS and IcAROS desktop(native) will be installed in their latest shape. AEROS is based (evolution wise) of Debian with a custom Kernel which uses AROS as desktopenvronment and integrates Wine .... long story short: you can access Linux / AROS, AmigaOS and Windows software.
 
Optional enhanced guarancee for 36month costs 69€ - standardguarancee is 12month.

The "optional" guarancee covers no SSD's! Any other component would be protected against failures.

The base system is composed of:
 
AMD E350 dualcore M1

250GB standard HD or 32GB SSD

2GB DDR3 RAM (supports up to 16GB) (additional 2GB RAM comes for ~17€ - changes daily so better ask)
 
DVD-Burner
 
LAN / Audio / DVI / VGA
 
Geforce G210 with 1GB DDR3 RAM
 
6xUSB2
 
Case with power supply
 
AMC and the new Game G.E.M.Z

Seems interesting!

How many Mhz is the cpu?

Does the GPU have any sort of hardware h.264 decoding?

If so can it be used by AROS?  Or is it only accessible to Windoze?
Wanna try a wonderfull strategy game with lots of handdrawn anims,
Magic Spells and Monsters, Incredible playability and lastability,
English speech, etc. Total Chaos AGA

h264 aceleration works under Aeros(linux side) and windows. Native aros supports 2d and 3d acceleration only.

edit
cpu has 2x 1.6ghz

I like the case. Then again, it's the same case I currently have my Sam440ep in so I might be a little biased :P
