The Asus Chromebox is a very small fanless, headless box that will go on sale in March for just $180. There’s a 1.4GHz Celeron 2955U (Haswell) CPU, paired with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of flash storage. On the connectivity side of things, there’s Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, 4x USB 3.0, DisplayPort, 802.11n WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, and an SD card slot. Graphics-wise, the HDMI and DisplayPort are powered by the Celeron 2955U’s integrated GPU — which won’t be playing any high-res games, but it should be more than enough for full-screen HD-video playback. AnandTech reports that there will be Core i3 and Core i7 Chromeboxes as well, which will presumably push the pricing up.
