AVADirect Mini Gaming PC Core i5 Z77

The AVADirect Mini Gaming PC Core i5 Z77 is exactly the opposite of a towering tower: It’s short and squat, looking like it’s longing to hide behind one of its bigger cousins. The good news is that this desktop’s diminutive dimensions don’t prevent it from achieving most of its gaming goals.
