But not, this is the backpack PC "Backpack PC"


It is a machine to solve the problem that the code connecting the PC and the headset greatly damages the VR gaming experience on a PC to connect to the VR headset.


MSI color which is red and mainly accent black.


Various terminals are on the top surface.


It is also taken.


A large power button on the corner.


It is equipped with a battery on the front side of the picture with MSI logo, and it is possible to operate continuously for 1.5 hours.


The stand looks like this. In addition, since it is a prototype to the last, there is a possibility that the design may be changed in the product version.


Huge heat sink to remove from side slits. Backpack PC is a high spec machine equipped with Skylake generation Intel Core i 7, 16 GB DDR 4 memory, graphic board with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980, waste heat treatment is essential.


Slit also in the part facing back.


There was also a holder for inserting the controller.


In the game demo, HTC Vive was set.


It is like this when carrying it on the back.


Afterwards it is OK if VR headset is installed.


How to play the game. Since the cable is very short and does not hang downwards, the cable does not become entangled with the body when turning back.


So, to experience it.

The interior where I could see for a moment was blindfolded with a black cover and I could not understand well. Sorry.


Restart and revive. I tried the game at once. The Backpack PC weighing 5 kg does not have to be heavy as it carries like a backpack. It's light enough to forget that you carry a Backpack PC when you are crazy about VR games.


If you are a core FPS gamer, rather than having a backpack on your back, you will be able to accept a lot of "Army" ... ...


The backpack PC is scheduled to be released within 2016. The price is undecided at this time.
