Crystal A410 Barebone - the MSI way

Through the last few years a new type of systems had been getting a bigger share of the market – the barebones. We can see them in many forms – multimedia pc's, small file servers, second home computer, miniature systems for education and office... so many ways to use them. In this review we look upon the MSI Crystal A410 that has integrated monitor..

Thanks to our partners from Solytrade we got one such machine for testing. Its almost complete computer with monitor, motherboard, integrated video controller and PSU, packed nicely in a small and elegant case. All you need to add is a processor, hard drive, memory and maybe a optical drive and you get a monitor with computer stuck to his back. This model has two variations - with and without touchscreen. The one we got was with touchscreen so we had the opportunity to test it as well. The recommended end user price of the touchscreen model is 1040 leva (798$), and for the other is 900 leva (698$).

Let's get reviewing...
