The BMW M8 Gaming PC is Inspired by the Legendary M Series
Michael Hines — June 4, 2013 — Autos
BMW DesignWorks USA and ASRock have created the BMW M8 gaming PC, a computer inspired by the former's cars. The PC is designed for hardcore gamers, a subset of people who share the same wants and desires as gearheads. Like the gearhead's car, their computer needs to be fast, sexy and customizable.
The BMW M8 gaming PC is all those and more. Its transparent side panels are magnetic and can be quickly detached. It has an OLED knob on its front that lets you quickly read up on vital stats about heat and usage. Like most new cars, the PC has different "driving modes" made up of speed, standard and eco. Powering all of this is a Creative SoundCore 3D quad core processor.
