Powered by the latest and greatest AMD Ryzen 7000 processor series (7700X, 7900X, or 7950X) with up to 16 cores and 5,7GHz boost clocks, the Slimbook Kymera Ventus AMD Black Limited Edition desktop computer comes with an ATX-sized, full-metal case in an “intimidating” black color that “radiates respect and elegance from all its corners.”
In terms of graphics and gaming, the Linux PC also features AMD RX Radeon 6750 XT or AMD RX Radeon 7000 (7900 XT or 7900 XTX) RDNA 3 series boasting up to 24GB of GDDR6 VRAM. To top that, you’ll also get DDR5 5200MHz RAM options up to 64GB, as well as up to 4TB SSD storage.
Being a Limited Edition, the Slimbook Kymera Ventus AMD Black edition is available only in a very limited number so you need to hurry if you were in the market for a new Linux-powered desktop computer to kick off the new year. In addition, they will feature a giant Tux logo on their front panel.
