Enthusiast has created a computer backpack for playing in VR – review

Computers in the backpack form factor are already produced by many companies, although they have not yet become mainstream. There are several reasons for this – this is price, weight, and a relatively small scope. In fact, they are intended exclusively for games in virtual reality.

And here is the user Reddit Under the pseudonym Davegus91 introduced a custom version of such a PC, assembled with his own hand. He put together a novelty based on a system with a processor Intel i7 9700K (frequency 4.7 GHz) and a video card GTX 1070. The case was made of aluminum, and a five-inch touch screen with a resolution of 720 x 480 pixels was used for control.
The system is equipped with a 340 Wh battery, which lasts about two hours playing Half-Life: Alyx. The author has not yet published full specifications and assembly instructions, but there are already photos and videos in different angles.
