Continuing our Computex coverage, we have ASUS debuting its two Desktop PCs G10 and M51 with fourth generation (Haswell) Intel Core i7 processors, NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics. But the feature that makes these features standout is the ASUS Power Pack. The ASUS Power Pack is a removable battery that acts like a mini UPS for the PC providing 25 seconds of power backup and after the 25 seconds it automatically deploys hibernate mode to save the user session. This Power Pack can also be removed from the desktop to act like a portable rechargeable battery pack for smartphones and tablets.
For enhancing the gaming experience the G10 has been equipped with NVIDIA GeForce GTX680 graphics with 3D Vision Surround capable of supporting up to four monitors at once. It also has indicator LEDs to show the operational state of any attached USB storage device. For audiophiles, ASUS has enhanced audio with SonicMaster technology and provided its AudioWizard interface that allows custom sound settings.

Both these PCs come with ASUS Smart Cooling System that automatically controls the fan speed to achieve the perfect balance between cooling and noise reduction. ASUS Universal Storage Module hot-swap drive bay makes for easy and fast data sharing. Front mounted USB 3.0 ports with Ai Charger technology for rapid charging of mobile devices. The M51 also comes with an additional wireless charging tray.

We are still waiting on the availability and pricing details but it can be safely assumed that it will be on the pricey side.
Update – According to reports from Engadget, The G10 comes with 8GB of RAM and a 1TB HDD paired with a 128GB SSD. An in terms of connectivity it has a 16-in-1 memory card reader, a DVD burner, six USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 connections, HDMI-out, DVI-D and VGA. And it would make its way to shelves in the 3rd or 4th quarter of 2013.
Computex, Taiwan has made sure that gadgets enthusiasts get a wider choice of products. So continuing our focus on ASUS and confirming last week rumors, Let’s check out the two Android tablets from ASUS one by one.
MeMO Pad HD 7
This 7inch tablet runs the slightly older Android 4.0 on an ARM Cortex A7 quad-core CPU with 1GB of RAM. The 7 inch display has a resolution of 1280x800 pixels with IPS to provide 170 degree viewing angles. For photography it comes with a 1.2 MP front camera and an optional 5 MP rear camera on high end models. Keeping up with times the tablet comes with stereo speakers with ASUS SonicMaster audio technology for an added punch. ASUS is also claiming that the lithium polymer battery (mAh unspecified) will be able to provide 10 hours 720p video playback. Taking lessons from the drawbacks of the Nexus 7, ASUS has provided a microSD slot and micro USB socket this time. The models will be available in 8GB and 16GB capacity with a price tag of 129 USD (7,315 INR) and 149 USD (8,450 INR) from July 2013 respectively in four colour variants of black, white, pink and green. Users will also be getting 16GB ASUS WebStorage free for one year.
ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10
The latest addition to the MeMo Pad series is the ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10. This 10 inch Android 4.2 Jelly Bean tablet runs on a 1.6 Intel Atom Z2560 (Clover Trail+) with 2GB RAM. As the name FHD suggests, it has a Full HD IPS display of 1920 x 1200 pixels capable of HD playback and HD video recording with help of its 5MP rear camera. On the front it comes with a 1.2 MP snapper. The 9.5 mm thick tablet is powered by a 25Wh battery capable of providing 10 hours of 720p video playback. Connectivity options include 802.11a/b/g/n, GPS and GLONASS navigation. The ‘micro-weave finish’ of the product is complemented by its four color variants of Royal Blue, Silk White, and Vivid Pink. The product will be available in 16 GB or 32 GB models at an undisclosed price from September 2013. The company also throws in a 5GB of free lifetime ASUS WebStorage.
MeMO Pad Accessories
To add value to the above two devices, ASUS also unveiled two covers. A TransCover for both the devices acts like a prop up stand for the tablet and a Persona Cover only for the 7 inch MeMo Pad to act as a back cover.
