MSI Wind Box DC110: very cheap and small PC

It's an undeniably plastic creation, although certainly not unpleasant to look at. A squeeze of the corner-mounted power button brings the unit to life and you're greeted by a Windows 8 desktop with a small bundle of pre-installed software, including...

A very competitively-priced mini PC with a good out-of-box experience for home users, the Wind Box DC110 is also rather slow and lacks USB 3.0 or any other high-speed interface. It also suffers from considerably weaker graphics performance than the...

MSI Wind Box DC111 Review

This is the third version of Window Box; DC100 used AMD E-350 Brazos hardware, then DC110 switched t This is the third version of Window Box; DC100 used AMD E-350 Brazos hardware, then DC110 switched to 1.1GHz Intel Celeron 847 and now we have the...

Amazingly cheap.

Intel graphics are only capable of playing movies and running a browser. Forget about gaming.

The MSI Wind Box DC111 is considerably more accomplished than you might expect for such a small, cheap PC.

Pretty good for htpc

I downgraded from custom htpc having i3-3225/ITX board to this one. Mostly because of low power and I wanted smaller footprint as well. I paid 133$+tax (AR) in local B&M shop. Put Mint 17.1, kodi and I've pretty solid htpc for the price

Wish this had vesa mounting brackets ; Shape of chassis is also not symmetrical ; Wifi seems spotty,but that may be due to drivers ; Can you make it in all black pls. :-)

MSI DC111 Business Desktop

Rebate offer is not viable for a business. We had 15 days to send them out and they require original box labels. I did not rush shipment, so these took 5 days to get here. We work M-F, by the time my office assistant got everything together and sent...

Quiet, energy efficient, ergonomic desktop unit. Runs all our daily use software with no issues or lockups. Good units for out purposes

Have seen the occasional lockup, but to date (6 months) no serious failures. Lockups were more likely software issues

If your parents need a pc buy this one

My dad (66) uses web browser, uploads pics from camera, and checks email. It's perfect for that.

Small but Strong

Its cool to have the vents but the front vent is restricted so I took it out. The white mesh for the vent should suffice but its connected to the thin black metal sheet so I just ended up taking everything out. But this is a really cool small PC that...

Small form factor, quiet fan (I don't hear it), Quick Secure Boot with Windows 8 (15 seconds on a standard 2.5 HDD), quick Celeron 1037U 1.8GHz (scores near 1900 in passmark benchmark), low price

not for gaming (of course), no mount bracket (has a stand though), the vents are restricted with a black thin metal (I took mine out)
