Product Description
Challenging the essence of how we define a desktop PC, GIGABYTE engineers have developed an ultra compact PC with a stylish design based around an anthracite aluminium frame and glass surface chassis. Ideal for a broad range of computing applications at home or in the office, the BRIX expounds sheer simplicity and convenience. With a broad choice of processors covering the entire performance spectrum, the BRIX sets a new standard for desktop miniaturization that makes it perfect as a discreet HTPC/multimedia hub, an ultra-low power PC for the family, an office PC or as a digital signage unit.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 May 2014I bought this because my dad needed a computer to control plant growing systems for his new business. I selected this as I knew the power consumption was very low and also that it can be mounted to the back of a monitor using the VESA mount.
As this is a barebones PC you will need to order extra parts in order to complete your system. I purchased: A Kingston 30GB mSATA Solid State Drive, A Crucial 2GB Memory Module, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and a Wireless Keyboard and Mouse set. (You can use a regular 2.5 inch disk drive for large volumes of storage if you intend to use this as a home theatre PC.) This model comes with an included power supply and a b/g/n Wi-Fi card included that gets a strong signal across in all areas of my house. As the requirements for the computer weren't high I could afford all of this at a reasonable cost. The solid state drive means this will remain permanently quick and responsive despite the lower CPU power.
The build quality of the unit is very good. It has a solid feel to it and a fair mass as well. You can really see the quality when you take this apart to add the extra components. The body is made from thick aluminium and the mounting points seem very strong. The I/O includes: HDMI, mini Display Port, 4 x USB 3.0 ports, Gigabyte LAN and a 3.5mm/TOSLINK audio jack.
Installing Windows on here was a new experience for me as I had only ever done it by disk before (there is no disk drive built in). To install Windows you need to open up the disk on a different computer and drag the installation files onto a USB stick. Then it's as simple as plugging that into your Brix, selecting the USB as the boot device and following the dialogue boxes. After all of this was done I installed the latest drivers from the Gigabyte website and then left it on overnight to fully update Windows.
This computer was a very good buy; I can't believe how much power you can get from such a small unit. If I ever buy a new PC in the future I'll certainly be buying one like this!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 August 2014Before I start with my experience so far, a word from a lesson learned. Make sure when you are purchasing to get 1.35 volt SODIMM RAM module, I made the mistake of getting a 1.5 volt SODIMM RAM module, PC would not power on.
I purchased this barebones machine to be used as a portable compact media center. Experience so far has been excellent, outputs 1080p movies stutter free. The Onboard graphics driver also detects whether the PC is connected to a 3D TV and optimizes for a perfect 3D experience. My only concern was that the included wireless Module would be inadequate, not to worry though as I got good signal through several solid brick walls.
My current setup is as follows, I've ran several stress tests with these components for couple of days to ensure PC had no hardware conflicts. Runs smooth and surprisingly fast.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 April 2015Not sure what else to say on top of others' reviews, but this is a great little PC. I use it as both a Plex server (with several HDs attached) and an office PC (in addition to my gaming PC which is in the living room) running Windows 8.1 and it's never given me any problems since I bought it several months ago.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 October 2014Amazing little machine, installed with Ubuntu and used as media center.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 September 2014If you need PC power in a very small space to clear your desk or floor of the usual clutter that having a tower or desk-top machine usually entails then these little beauties will certainly help to do that. I fitted 256Gbyte of Solid State SATA storage and 8Gbytes of DDR3 RAM in mine to create a machine that ran Mageia4 Linux excellently. With the above configuration they are very quiet in operation (if they have a fan I have not heard it so I suspect they are probably fanless) and even extended running for over 72 hours didn't seem to get them beyond a tepid surface temperature. Operating speed seems very adequate for my intended use. I am building mine into a fully featured 3D CAD and Electronics Design Station.
